As a custodian who is often treated like I might as well be invisible, this can absolutely happen. Those who show even the tiniest bit of respect to us are often the only ones and it is greatly appreciated.
I’m sorry if you’re not appreciated enough where you work and I just want to say a deep thank you for what you do - you keep the wheels turning. I used to be friends and neighbours with our custodian (before they moved to a warmer country and we lost touch) and having seen the state of the office in just one day without my buddy when he was off sick (people are such animals), it’s people like you that make a place nice and uplifting to be in. Thank you, fishos.
You are not invisible. I see you. You are an essential worker. Imagine what malls, offices and especially schools would be like without custodians. So thank you for the hard work you do.
If everyone else ignores me or treats me like shit and this guy spends time with me every day to make my job less shitty? Yeah, I'd thank them and even buy them a coffee.
I just don't get it. Certain people here think being a friend takes effort. It doesn't and it's appreciated from people who don't get noticed as often as they deserve to be.
It's like that person who said they wouldn't know what to talk about with a janitor if they were rich as if the janitor and the rich person wouldn't have grown up steeped in the same pop culture.
If it's been a really shitty day where things have been being piled on and I'm struggling, yeah, absolutely. Why do you find this something to mock or ridicule or disbelieve?

because the OP paints custodians as awkward and outcast. While OP paints themself as a white knight, they backhandedly paint the custodian as a damsel in distress who needs the OP to rescue him. OPs like this deserve all the mockery.
This guy's (image not op) whole thing on Twitter seemed to be post something like that and then 5 donation posts. I couldn't determine if legit but seemed sketchy so I blocked.
More like r/nothingeverhappens
God, it gets old interacting with r/thathappened peeps. We get it, you don't believe a downvote is enough, or are "too good" to use downvotes. No one cares.
All the posts are along the lines of "I was walking down the street and I found a $100 note on the ground", yeah, it's entirely possible that it happened, stuff that's unlikely isn't impossible, especially given the global population of 7 billion people.
