Wisdom Wednesday – “You’re being incredibly unreasonable and someone needs to take the stick out of your ass.”

Little break from my usual rambles about management theory to share a TikTok my wife sent me.

It’s the hilarious story of a boss who totally overreacts and makes a bigger deal than needed out of an employee being late due to a flat tire.  Absolutely hilarious and the person who made this TikTok nailed every single aspect of this.

@ben.askins This one just keeps getting worse… This boss tried to get their employee to use PTO to fix a tyre. #redflags #badboss #funny #toxiccompanies ? original sound – Ben Askins

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – For Weddings and a Funeral (August 2008)

Hard to believe that fifteen years ago we were at Shea’s cousin’s wedding and took this photo of three girls (also cousins) she’d basically raised from babies with our baby.

Sadly, the last time we would see the sister on the left was at the sister on the right’s wedding earlier this summer.  She was killed in a tragic car accident this fall and Wednesday would’ve been her 33rd birthday.

We went to visit the parents last weekend and had some tears talking about their loss and how losing a child is possibly the single worst thing that can happen to anyone.  But also some laughs as we shared memories and funny moments of Kayla.

You never know what life will bring and as cliche at it sounds, each day is a gift.  So lead with kindness as you never know what people are going through. A good reminder to keep proper perspective of what’s really important in life.
