... In that I make tea for workmen??? :confused1:

 

We've got a lot of highways work taking place outside and in the general area at the moment, and they frequently do 10 hours plus a day.

 

I can - just about! - remember back to doing street tree work and I know how much a cuppa is appreciated, so I'm quite happy to make a few teas or coffees for them if I'm in. It only takes a couple of minutes and costs a couple of pence, so why doesn't anyone else bother? I was chatting to one bloke and he said that in 12 weeks, only one other person had made them drinks. Am I the only one who does this? I can't be, surely? Or am I just wierd?

 

Janey, You are Kind, Considerate, and Caring:thumbup1::thumbup1::thumbup1:. You must understand that not everyone can and will be able to do what you do. Here Stateside I frequently provide a nice cold glass of water or when it gets cold enough I will buy a coffee or hot coco for my workers helping me.

Your acts just makes good sense and I suspect your up bringing had a lot to do with your manors as well. Keep up the good work, it pays you back in so many ways!
