It mattered to that starfish

Email received today:

I just wanted to say thank you for helping me out when I was having a bad time a year ago. I'm still on the same team, but knowing how to navigate talking to other teams was a big help in figuring out what I need and getting to a more stable place. And I think you're the one who suggested I talk to $PERSON, which was a very good idea. Things are going well for me these days, and I expect to be around $THIS_OFFICE for the forseeable future :)

Amusingly, I had to look back to find the suggestions I had sent, because I had no memory of this meeting. It happened though!
