My buddy Mark had his toaster break down last week. He stuck a post-it on it with 'fix this pls' and left it by the dumpster. Management swapped it out the next day.

Hope your apology was as memorable as the meal.

Nice! My first try at sauerkraut was a total mushy mess. It's cool these classes are popping up everywhere now.

Yeah but making it mandatory feels like it could backfire, lol. If someone's already stressed, being forced into a meeting about it just adds another thing to their calendar. I've seen people just say what they think the boss wants to hear so they can get back to work. Real talk, stress doesn't get fixed in a scheduled check-in, it gets fixed by actually fixing the job stuff making people stressed.

Ugh idk maybe it's just me but people get so worked up over this stuff. Like yeah a broken sidewalk is bad but sometimes they actually are working on it and the email updates just go to spam. I mean they're probably volunteers with regular jobs, not a full time repair crew. Maybe the newsletter photos are cringe but that doesn't mean they're hiding things on purpose.
