What is your best Met the High School jerk slash bully as an adult story?

I own my own gym and have for a few years now.

I received a message one day from a familiar looking name on the business's Facebook page

from a woman asking to come try us out.

We set it up, she comes in for an introduction, she's a very, very large and out of shape

woman at this point. After about

five minutes of working with her, it hits me that this lady used to be about half her current

size and was an absolute B back in her heyday. I decided not to bring it up to her as she appeared

to be struggling in life and came to us in a time of need, and I took it, as I do with all of my

clients, as a cry for help. Not to mention, I'm a time of need, and I took it, as I do with all of my clients, as a cry for help.

Not to mention, I'm a grown man now, and that seemed pretty silly and insignificant in life today.

Months later, during one of the classes, I noticed her struggling real hard, so I go over to

offer some encouragement. As I leaned down to say something to her, I notice she's crying

faintly to herself.

She looks up at me and quietly says,

Sorry for how nasty I was to you years ago, and thank you for doing this for me.

Turns out an old mutual friend told her about my place,

and she recognized me as the owner and came to me on purpose.

No, not a story of revenge or retribution,

but she reached out to someone she was terrible to,

and today, she's repurposed, and I find it to be quite inspiring.

Not quite the same, but about ten years ago, I caught my dad screaming at the TV.
