Got a random compliment at the concrete supply yard yesterday that made my week

I was grabbing bags for a small patio pour and this old-timer said my form setup looked 'clean enough to eat off'. Has anyone else had a stranger boost your confidence right when you were doubting yourself?

And a compliment like that from a guy who's probably seen a thousand forms (you know, the real deal) is way better than any pat on the back.

Hit me with the same thing at Home Depot - a plumber said my pipe layout was poetry and I floated for days after that.
