Above and beyond

I work with a guy who goes out of his way to help me.

It does me no good to tell him I don't need him to do something because he can't hear.

Today, he was getting off the elevator when I was getting on.

The people getting off the elevator with him didn't hold the door for me, so he pushed the button to open the door. Then he followed me onto the elevator to push the floor. We have to "unlock" the floor with our ID cards, so he did that, even though the doors closed and he had to ride up. Then he got off the elevator with means opened the office door even though it meant he missed the elevator.

Wow.
