Never let a good crisis go to waste. Even the death of your stepfather.

I never understood this kind of simping for a company. I work for a great company and they treat me well, but I know this is purely a transactional relationship. I do a job for them, they pay me. If I don’t do the job to their liking or they deem my job isn’t needed, they’ll fire me and not think twice about it. If I don’t need them or find something better, I’m leaving without a second thought.

I did this once when I left a seriously toxic place for a new employer that treated me like a human being. I was shell shocked. It was like being a kid at Christmas. I thought I'd hit the jackpot.

That said, I removed the post a month later because my settings were back to normal and it looked cringey once I viewed it with fresh eyes. My new employer was fine, but not the be-all end-all.

Hopefully, one of this woman's friends or family will take her aside and advise her to reconsider how she is using her stepfather's memory to shill for her employer.

We are not all like this 💀

My wife and I just had our second child, and we have also been dealing with her cervical cancer diagnosis. It has been a stressful year, to say the least.

What is something low cost I can do that will be a nice “couples thing” so we can de-stress, but also make her feel special?

I felt like a walking zombie during thanksgiving, barely eating and barely talking. My family is small and I told them ahead of time my relationship ended.
