Fresh and Friendly: All this complaining is not friendly!
(Preview)
People need to stop complaining about each other. They need to stop finding faults in others. They need to accept their part in the problem and resolve it. Blaming others gets you nowhere. It doesn't solve the problem. I am one of the first ones that will admit my mistakes. Heck I put my name on my mistake...

Switching to safety razors.
(Preview)
Thought I'd like to make a public service announcement. I have decided to switch over to safety razors and ditch the disposable razor monopoly scam. You guys know that disposable razors are so expensive, and part of the reason is because of marketing. In 2011, Gillette spent $146 million on media ad...

Elders VS. Young
(Preview)
has anyone noticed how awful some of the older employees treat the younger ones? Tired of elders/superiors treating younger people not as their equals. No one has the right to look down on someone because of age. youre old... deal with it. Stop being pricks.

Hey guys, Attached is my resignation letter from back in October. I'll tell you this: NEVER be afraid to bail on them, no 2 week notice, if they treat you like garbage.
