today it was pouring when i was about to leave the office for home.
the moment i stepped out, a middle-aged technician came up to me and said, "going home, eleanor?"
and i smiled and said,"yes, ghani, i'm going home. see you tomorrow!"
and then he said,"it's raining you know, have you got an umbrella? the roads are slippery you know, be careful ok?goodbye!"

it makes a whole lot of difference when people are concerned about your welfare.
