    The personal stories where people open up to me at work are amazing. (And the level of trust they put in me when they share it)

    Had a man in his 60s talking about how he’s working on his mental health for the first time in his life after his divorce and death of a parent.

    It’s still really raw for him and he still trusted me with his story. I love that I can work in this blue collar environment and have interactions like this.

      You come across as a very genuine and caring person, so I’m not surprised that people trust you with their stories.

        My boss jokes that I like to rescue all the lost puppies at work.

        He might be on the money with that one
