• My boss took a real chance on me and advocated for me, and I just took it and moved on without ever closing the loop
• They handled the money, or the cooking, or were just the person I leaned on
• When something goes well I tend to quietly absorb the credit or just say "great team effort," and I never actually name who did what
• Someone gave me real time and good advice, and weeks go by where I never circle back to tell them I actually used it
