[QUOTE="brownboxman, post: 663814, member: 11958"] A year ago I was given a helper for one day. Her name was Michelle as I often do I asked her about her life. She was 24 yrs old the mother of a little 2 yr old, married to a 25 year old guy that had open heart surgery 6 mnths earlier. She had been working odd jobs since the surgery and was not able to find steady work. Well this was two weeks before Christmas and the other job she had was ending the first of the year. They were living with a cousin and had two rooms in his house which he was charging $800 per month. As a custom in my rather large family we stopped giving gifts to each other and tried to find someone who needed help. Well this one day with Michelle was enough to get the family on-board with helping her and her little family. We ended up collecting a mountain of gifts and $1400 to give to them. So this year I asked them to tell us how their year went. Well the hand up we gave them got them by till they were both able to find jobs and get a small condo. So this year they wanted to be part of our giving, I just thought it was a great story on how even though our jobs seem meaningless, there can be a reason to being a UPS driver. Happy New Year!
