Why Did I Refuse This Random Act of Kindness?

[MouseWife]

Alex, that sounds how an experienced person may approach this.

I did catch that Helen was concerned that perhaps her husband had helped this person in some form at some time. Why that would seem wrong, I don't know, but, a persons reasons are their own {LOL, I almost said 'They are what they are...' but I recall GC starting a thread about that.... }.

Again, I don't think Helen did anything wrong, we are all allowed to do what we feel the need to do. But, I think it is interesting trying to figure it out.

Like, the kid, perhaps he just got a raise or something and felt generous? Like a Starbucks 'bigwig'? Or, maybe, he quit his job and this was his way of screwing the company, 'Ha! I'm giving your coffee away!!!'

And yes, I did just drink a cup of coffee and my mind is racing all over...

Perhaps he removed a thorn from his paw.

It just occured to me. I know why you did it!

You hadn't had your coffee yet!
