The rice crispy treat

My dads really old friend (he is like 83 years old) gave me 3 rice crispy treats but non to no one else and so I saw my sister looking like she wanted one but didn't want to ask so it didn't seem like begging so I gave her one to eat and she took it and looked happy.

World Series Surprise

On a night when I was waiting to work a concert at STAPLES Center and had a few hours to kill, I was posted up alone in my boss' office watching Game 3 of the 2018 World Series. It was the first home game at Dodger Stadium. As most of the office had already left for the night, I was...

Lost Keys and Kindness

At the end of a long day last year, when I was still a temporary employee, I was gearing up to leave. It had been an emotional day, which had lent me to taking lunch in my car to just relax. As I was leaving the building, I noticed my car keys were missing. After searching my bag and jacket pockets...

Annabel

Taking me under their wing

Since the very beginning when we first started working at LA Live in 2007, he has essentially taken me under his wing, teaching me and guiding me on a daily basis. We both have different projects we work on, daily and weekly, but...

Dog Walking

My friends and I walked dogs in my neighborhood as a Random Act of Kindness service project. We decided to do this because we wanted to help people that can't walk their own dogs.

In Tom's Memory

Tom was a Security Supervisor at the Los Angeles Convention Center. He was like a father figure. Although he passed in August of 2018, I still wish for him to be recognized for his kindness and hard work! He was genuine in everything that he did. Thank you Tom!

Family Ties

This story didn't happen to me directly. I heard it shortly after I was hired which immediately cemented the fact that I made the right choice in joining the AEG family. One of my co-workers was in dire straights because her husband had recently been diagnosed with cancer. A few weeks prior, when he suddenly became ill but before the...
