A post by A.S.L. @/scraptown79 that reads, "I build powerlines for a living, and I make a good, union, wage. If a bunch of burger flippers started earning the same wages and benefits that I make, dude... I'd be celebrating with them and their families! Working people are my people! Their win is my win!"

To be excessively fair to customers who are like "but I thought your policy was [something objectively unhinged]", owing to the nonexistent employee training and scattershot managerial oversight of your average retail outlet it's entirely possible to walk into a store with a question about store policy and get three completely different answers on three consecutive days.

As a grownup, I am impressed at the dad’s commitment and his management and coworkers being so supportive.

I've been doing a lot of thinking about my family and how I was treated as a child, and honestly, my father has never seemed more amazing in my eyes.

I used to love Luigi(Mario's brother) when I was little. Like, he was my favorite character ever, and I had multiple plushies of him. Didn't give a fuck about Mario, vaguely tolerated Peach, but I loved Luigi.

On my first day of kindergarten, my dad gave me the number for his work phone and said it was Luigi's phone number. "If anything happens at school, call Luigi."And not even twenty minutes into my first day, I was having a panic attack. So I went down to the principal's office and called "Luigi."

Now, at the time, my father was in a meeting with his manager and his supervisor, along with most of his coworkers. And when I called, he picked up before he even left the room.

And he put on a very awful Italian accent and said, "Itsa me, Luigi! Whatsa the matter?"In front of his boss and coworkers. Without telling them what was going on. So they were absolutely bewildered, and he carried on like they didn't even exist. He only explained what was happening after I had calmed down and hung up, to which most of them responded with "Aww, cute."

I continued to call him whenever I got upset at school, and eventually his coworkers got in on it. I distinctly remember one of them impersonating Toad. I don't know why I'm telling you this, I just thought it might make you smile :)

this is so delightful I love your Luigi dad

Bec Hel really never stopped thinking about her until the only option left was ‘eliminate her’ and even that did not work

"It doesn't help your credibility to exaggerate, most employers wouldn't literally work you to death" like, I used to work in distribution. If booking a truck driver for back to back shifts until they fall asleep at the wheel, crash, and die counts as being worked to death, I have personally met employers who've worked employees to death and gotten away with a slap on the wrist. It may not be universal, but it's a hell of a lot more common than a lot of us would prefer to think.

James 1:17 implies that all good things and perfect gifts in life originate from God. God has blessed us with jobs, a home, family and many other things. And along with that, He has given us responsibilities...we are to take care of what He has given us. We have to keep our homes clean, see that our children are well-fed, and do our best in our work places. All these require hard work and persistence.

“Whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” 1 Corinthians 10:31

When we come to the realisation that, we work for the glory of God, then even the most menial task will become pleasurable. God grants us the grace and strength to do it to the best of our ability, without grumbling or complaining.

I cannot tell you how disappointed I am that this was a spam email telling me about a "bug on our company website" and not a real email informing me that this person had spotted a cool bug.
