A little background first. I'm a truck driver and each night I do a double manned run with a regular co-driver hut if one if us has a night off we do the run with an agency driver. This week I am covering another guys run because he is off sick so ky regular partner has an agency guy with him.

So last night at the start of the shift I saw the guy who would be taking my spot on my usual run and I recognised him as he had been with me a couple of times 7 or 8 months ago. I said hello and spoke with him for a minute or two but it was clear he had forgotten who I was and wasn't very talkative. Tonight as I was pulling out of the depot I saw him again and he came over to my truck. He apologised for not saying much but he hadn't recognised me because of my weight loss!

I had also given him something and asked him if he would please pass it onto Steve, my usual co-driver, and it wasn't until he did so that Steve explained who I was and showed him my before and current picture from here that he remembered working with me.

I'm still smiling 4 hours into my shift.

That is great. I love those random moments that show you all of your hard work is paying off.
Personally I think the random comments from acquaintances mean more, because often friends will say what they know you want to hear, where others actually give you an honest reaction and it feels even better.
