Today, while working at a client's house, I noticed that their sliding calendar was several months off. I fixed it. Later the daughter saw and started crying. Apparently the date was the last one her mother had set it to before she died. FML

This is why you don't touch people's things when you're working at their house. Def YDI!

YDI, although it was a good gesture, you shouldn't mess with stuff at other people's houses especially if it's a client's.

Wow, OP, you really messed up. You deserve it! I know you meant well, I totally understand that. Hopefully you feel terrible. But you straight up should NOT touch other people's stuff. Whether it's someone's workplace, or their home, you should never try to fix something or change something.

YDI. You shouldn't touch other's belongings without consent. I'm sure you wouldn't want someone touching your stuff without your permission as well.

Hm, I guess this depends on what your job is. If you're a cleaning lady or something, I guess I could understand that it is your job to keep things up to order and they should inform you otherwise. But if you were there for other things (house repair, internet, food, social worker, etc) ydi for touching something that had nothing to do with your job.

this is why people prefer to keep pictures of their loved ones over a silly impersonal thing such as a calendar a picture or a letter written by a deceased family member would hold so much more value than a calendar brought at any store

Every person has their own sentimental ways of remembering a lost loved one. For instance, my mother loves teddy bears. If anything were to happen to her, that would be my way of always being able to hold onto a piece of my mother. Are you saying that that's a silly gesture for being able to hold a loved one that's no longer around close to your heart? Tsk.

no im saying such a common thing like a calendar is silly to get attached to, its not personal teddy bears are semi personal because they have to be sewn and stuffed while a cheap looking calendar is mass produced as quick as a speeding bullet

I work in the funeral industry. Things that you would assume are "mass produced" trash have sentimental value to the clients. Op should have just told the clients the calendar was off, s/he should have not moved it without the client's permission.
