Around 12 noon today, a couple rushed into Medicine Casualty holding their 3-year-old. The child had fallen off a table; his wrist was visibly deformed, likely a clean break. He was crying inconsolably, surrounded by 4 or 5 frantic relatives. "Doctor, treat my child fast!" they

Most of us forget how privileged we are to have a job

Wayne Rooney: “I remember Fergie’s team talk before playing AC Milan. He said to Park: ‘Your job today is not touching the ball or making passes. Your job is Pirlo. That’s all: Pirlo.’” “At the time Andrea Pirlo averaged about 110 passes a game. Around 60–70 were forward passes

At her exit interview, HR asked, "Was there anything we could’ve done to stop you from leaving?" She smiled politely and said, "I just wish someone had asked me if I was okay... before I decided to go." HR was surprised. "But you were always smiling, always on time, doing

Why Quiet Employees Worry HR More Than the Loud Ones Loud employees are easy to notice. They speak up in meetings, question policies, share frustrations, and sometimes even complain openly. While HR professionals may not always agree with them—but at least they know what’s going

My stepdad, Greg, never said 'I love you.' He was a hard man. Worked construction. Came home, ate, slept. He paid for my college. He paid for my car. But he never hugged me. I always thought he resented me. I wasn't his real son. Greg died of a heart attack last week. I was

"I work late in a high-rise. Everyone ignores the cleaning crew. There’s an older guy, Marcus, who empties my trash bin every night at 7 PM. He usually keeps his head down, trying not to disturb anyone. One night, I stopped typing. I spun my chair around. 'Marcus, I’m ordering

Elijah Kisembo Silver Kayondo True. We had a lovely platform to start industrial development some thirty-odd years ago. But what happened in reality? Cooperatives were dissolved, Coffee Marketing Board abandoned, Sembule Electronics, UGIL, and many others left to dry. We started growing agencies upon agencies

The HR always know what they are doing. Just leave when you are not appreciated enough.

It's 4:30pm on a friday and I'm gearing up to leave but my manager just told me we need to "think about succession planning." He wants me to train someone else to do my job "in case you're ever out." Translation: they want me to train my replacement so they can pay someone less

“Education is the only drug that works against poverty.” True words of a genius

I manage a coffee shop. Yesterday, a guy came in for an interview. He was homeless. I could smell it before I saw him. His shirt was stained, his hair was matted, but he had shaved his face clean. He handed me a resume that was wet at the corners. "I'm a hard worker," he said. "I

I pour concrete for a living. Hard work. Dirty work. We were doing a driveway for this big, fancy house on the hill. The owner came out every hour to complain. "Don't ruin the grass," "You're taking too long," "Don't park your truck there." He treated us like we were deaf or

Building something meaningful will stretch you in ways applause never can. Stay. Do the work. Let time speak.

I wish I knew that clarity comes after commitment, not before. You don’t start ready. You start, learn in public, make mistakes, and grow into the leader the vision demands.

Whenever I have a misunderstanding with my husband that leads to me making a wrong decision or reacting improperly, at the end of our conversation he usually tells me something: “Women don’t always think wide. You think straight. You don’t always check left and right to see the

If you think Joseph was imprisoned just because he resisted her, read her first sentence. We usually treat this story like a basic lesson on resisting temptation. Joseph runs away, stays honest, and keeps his integrity. That’s all true. But we don’t spend enough time talking

My mom usually makes little handmade things like this, but this time she truly amazed me She’s 67 and still creating with so much passion. She wanted me to share this with you all and see your opinions. What do you think? ❤ By Angela Mcnutt
