You wana know what still just doesn’t sit right with me? A man who worked in the kitchen for over 10 years at Cracker Barrel in Jensen Beach Florida died DURRING his shift. Right in the back of the restaurant. And the business didn’t close their doors. Didn’t even blink. Families were still seated, eating their dinner while a man was dying in the back. Wait staff and the kitchen were still forced to work while THEIR FRIEND was dying in the back. AND THEN, get this, when his memorial came around, management had the AUDACITY to put the invite to his funeral in the back with a note that said WE CAN NOT ACCEPT REQUEST OFF FOR THIS DAY.

You think these corporations care about you? You think if you you put in extra work and don’t call out when your sick and be their little puppet that it will get you anywhere in life? Stop giving yourself a stress condition for these companies that will quite literally walk over your dead body to hire your replacement. Stop compromising important times with your family, or even simply your happiness for buisnesses that only care about profit. Life is to important to spend it working and paying bills. Remember at the end of the day you work for YOURSELF. If a company isn’t doing anything for you, then you shouldn’t be doing anything for the company. Period.

**edit to add** Cracker Barrel has a policy where employees are not allowed to post anything negative about the company on social media. But I no longer work for Cracker Barrel so I made this sharable !📷
