What are we all posting on corporate handles for 4th of July? Having a hard time writing "Happy Independence Day!" the same week that millions are losing health coverage and concentration camps are being erected. I know we still need to post SOMETHING, but wondering if anyone here has any PC/corporate way to skirt around saying something too celebratory?

You can enjoy the day without necessarily enjoying what it represents. If your company also wants you to post, you're doing it for that reason, nothing else. We are doing a very simple "happy Fourth of July" and leaving it at that.

I'm not in a position to write anything related to the holiday, but I suppose I'd just go with the traditional "Happy Fourth of July" sort of thing. In this depressing time when patriotism has been coopted by bigots, it is difficult to appreciate the holiday. I read that a number of Fourth of July events have been canceled because of fears of ICE raids.

Be uptight with ICE raids until it is your little girl or wife attacked by the crooks Joe Biden allowed to walk into our country. If you can’t appreciate July 4th, move to Russia!

You need to move to Russia or China. Corruption is very high in the health care industry and you can thank Joe Biden for opening the borders to crooks and the rest. As for the others going to jail, what do you want to give the crooks the other countries let out to come here? A Holiday Inn? You want to pay for it? Why aren’t you complaining about the treatment to American vets who are 2nd class to immigrants? If Laken Riley was your daughter, I bet you’d have a different tone! And, if your mind is so empty that you might say something too celebratory about the greatest country in the world, the USA, I just suggest you go to two places Russia or straight to hell!

We keep all holiday posts short and to the point. Most people don't read much into what businesses are posting during the holidays, if they even see the posts (not likely, unless you pay to promote it for some reason). "Happy 4th of July from all of us at COMPANY".

I have a new employee that started last Monday, unfortunately it’s not going to work out. Long story, but we’re fairly certain the individual is using Meth and appears to have started/restarted fairly recently. I work with physicians, so it’s a consensus. We have to terminate employment, but what ethical obligation do we have? Two young children at home and no spouse. This is weighing heavily on us.
