A Gentleman In Public Works

This gentleman stepped up to the plate when the owner, (female) of this vehicle needed to leave her parking space but did not know how to back up.

The Public Works Truck had blocked off the Plaza and she couldn't drive forward to get out, so this gentleman offered to back the vehicle up for her. Now here's the catch. When he backed it up enough for her to get out he came to me and said, "Joe, would you believe that car has censors that tell you while you're backing up if you're getting too close to something?" We laughed it off and I thanked him for being such a gentleman.

A few years ago, when we lived on the Plaza, my truck was iced in. A Public Works employee came by with cardboard and the know-how to get me out of my parking spot and on my way. Good to know they are still around, being good neighbors.

That's a real nice thing. Ya know, they talk about how nasty the blogs are, but Mr. A., ya put up quite a bit o' heartwarmin' stuff.

Good on the feller who helped.
