Yesterday, I saw my neighbor's cat stuck in a tree. Instead of helping immediately, I waited 20 minutes just so I could pretend to be the hero who 'happened to pass by' at the right moment.

I'm a meteorologist, and sometimes when I know it's going to be a beautiful day, I slightly underpredict how nice it will be. People are always happier when the weather is better than expected.

I'm a hotel housekeeper, and when I find children's stuffed animals left behind, I take photos of them 'having adventures' around the hotel before sending them back. Parents tell me it helps their kids cope with the separation.

I'm a delivery driver, and I keep a stash of dog treats in my truck. I know exactly which houses have dogs and their names. Sometimes I take slightly longer routes just to see my furry friends.

I'm a video game developer, and I added my late dog as a background character in our latest game. Players keep posting about the 'cute dog NPC that follows you around the park level' not knowing it's my tribute to my best friend.

I'm a wedding DJ, and I keep a secret playlist of songs that have saved awkward reception moments. Like when family tension rises, I play the Chicken Dance - no one can stay angry while doing that dance.

I'm an ice cream truck driver, and I have a secret code with local parents. If they wave at me with both hands, it means their kid did something really good, and I pretend their house is my 'lucky last stop' with a free bonus scoop.

I've been pretending to understand cryptocurrency for the past 2 years in my tech job. Everyone thinks I'm an expert, but I still don't know what a blockchain actually is. 😅
