Samuel Gutierrez+FollowWhen calling in sick gets you fired?A Chick-fil-A worker says he lost his job after calling in sick—then being spotted picking up food at the same restaurant. The manager reportedly saw this as proof he wasn’t really ill, sparking a debate about what “too sick to work” actually means. Fast-food jobs are already known for strict rules and quick firings, but this story hits a nerve: can you be well enough for takeout but not for a shift? Many workers are sharing similar experiences online, raising questions about fairness, trust, and how company values play out in real life. What do you think—was this firing justified? #Business #ChickfilA #WorkplaceStories30Share

ronnie99+FollowMy Coworker on SNAP Eats Better Than All of UsA coworker used SNAP to buy sushi-grade salmon and crab legs every week—while most of us were reheating leftover pasta. Her boyfriend works off the books, so their real income is much higher. Watching her complain about “not enough SNAP” while I debated buying potatoes felt painfully unfair. #WelfareFraud #LowIncomeStruggles #WorkplaceStories #SNAPDebate6447Share
