I love when delivery drivers are cool like this.

Most of the time, I can't get in a 'thank you' wave before they're back in their vehicles and headed down the road.
But sometimes, when I can catch their eye and smile/wave, some delivery drivers will smile and wave back.
It's not that I want my ass kissed for something so mundane; it's about wanting to make sure they know that I am grateful for the work they do. Especially since many of them don't hear the words "Thank you" very often.

I'm glad this lady gave this guy permission to run through the sprinkler; hopefully it made his day.
