Purposeful Serendipities

I love a good headline. Today I came across one which read, “Sully who? JetBlue flight attendant Steven Slater becomes hero to wage earners everywhere” on the Ny Daily News Website. The article is about a fed-up flight attendant who cursed out a plane full of people after being disrespected and slid down the emergency slide of the plane with a beer in his hands, as he stood up for himself in maybe the most controversial way possible. It’s something that people often wish they could, even almost visualizing the scene, and practicing the speech they would say if they had that opportunity.

Myself included I used to have a manager who would get mad and throw things around rather than ask employees to fix shelves to a specific standard. Often I wanted to play dodgeball with her, catch some of the items and them peg her with them as I screamed “How do you like them apples?!?!”

Not a fan of violence, but sound off on some of your Hero Work Stories, where you stood up for someone in the office or stood up for yourself or your beliefs in some way.
