This is why workers should have more say in a company than they currently do in most companies. They are directly involved with the success of the company, but they don’t get any of the benefits that come from the success of the company, except the ability to continue working there. If the company fails [...]

Sleep deprivation is a serious condition. 25 million people die from it every year, and that’s just in the United States. Ok, so it’s not actually a death, but 25 million suffer from it. Ok, so it’s not actually 25 million people, but stop marginalizing it and lets just move on to the very important [...]
Lack of sleep can be caused by many things. For me it’s hating that we spend 1/3 of our lives sleeping, which means if you live for 100 years you will have slept for 33 years of your life. Ugh. No thank you! So I try to spend as little of my time sleeping as [...]
I try to keep a good head up about things that suck in my life. The amount of money being made while working ALL the time is nice. But the working all the time sucks. Anyone can relate to that, and I think Zac Brown and Kenny Chesney understand that if you didn’t have to [...]
It may not happen to all of us, but it’s one of my worst fears when having multiple jobs. You show up to one, and you weren’t scheduled that day. At first you think “Sweet! I don’t work today”, but then you get a call while you are leaving and it’s the other job. “You [...]

Another story about bus rides, the man who rides and ignores my advice or heed my warnings from my last post. A man boards the bus and hears sniffling and coughing, there are only about 4 of us on the bus at this point, and he turns around like we insulted his mother. I caught [...]
Ok, this isn’t so much customer service related, but anyone who has ridden a bus might know what I am talking about here. Everyone knows that riding a bus is a public thing, or at least should know. On this public bus, people will get sniffles every now and again, or may even get something [...]
A fan of the strip made me realize that I have been neglecting Armstrong, one of my favorite characters. I just didn’t realize that it had been 18 issues since we last saw his beautiful creepy face. In fact the last time we saw him, was just his face. I’ve been trying so hard to [...]
“If you’ve got time to lean, you’ve got time to clean.” I can’t describe the disdain I have for this saying… let me try though. I am not sure who first person was to say it, but I wish to smack them on the back of the head. If it wasn’t for them saying this, [...]
