There is also a famous story of a rav (I don’t remember who because I heard this as a child) who supervised a meat-packing plant. It was after 5:00 and the manager wanted to lock up, but the security guard insisted that the rav was still inside. He always said good night to the security guard as he left for the day, and the security guard was positive that he had not seen him leave. The manager just wanted to go home, and told the guard that he must have missed the rav. But the guard was persistent. Reluctantly, the manager agreed to search the plant, and they found the rav locked in one of the freezers. His life was saved because he always said good night to the security guard.
