9 Acts Of Kindness From Total Strangers That Will Melt Your Heart

7. Rahm Emmanuel, Mayor Of Chicago

Rahm Emmanuel is the Mayor of Chicago and a very humble Mayor at that. Not only does he use public transport but he also cares a lot about the people of Chicago. Emmanuel was sitting next to a woman on the bus who was engaging in a telephone interview for a job. Looking for a new job is scary enough, but when you're doing a phone interview on a crowded bus, that takes courage and dedication. Emmanuel understood this, took the phone from her and gave her a glowing reference over the phone, because who wouldn't take the words of a politician seriously? If that didn't get her the job, at least she had a very pleasant commute and a great story to tell the kids.
