I worked a job for 12 years in product development and drove an hour and a half each way to get there. I thought it was the best job I could do because the hourly rate was the highest I had been paid. I was with a man at the time and thought that that was my life... When I turned 39 he left me for his 23-year-old assistant. It was devastating but I met someone and within two years we had a child I got a full-time tenure track job I'm now living my best life at 52.

I have used this moment to share with others any chance I get how this moment impacted me and that if my brother would have known what this would do to my family and I, I know he would have gotten the help he needed before he acted on his emotions. I share the story to encourage others to get help because no matter who finds them they instantly become a victim of suicide as well. It's a trauma I hope can be avoided by talking about it.

@teresahunt5521 I had a similar situation at a Family Practice about 20 years ago. They were mostly young girls in their 20's, lazy, gossiping, and swearing most of the time. I was in my late 40's and fresh out of nursing school. They had someone training me for the first couple of weeks, so they had me on the front end in the mornings to learn the flow of the office, then seeing patients with the Dr in the afternoons. When we didn't have a patient, or at the end of the day, we'd restock the exam rooms, including vacutainers for blood draws. As you probably know, some of them have expiration dates on them, so one day, I organized them in layers separated by brown paper towels to make sure we use the ones that expire first. I also threw out many tubes that were already expired that they had been using! When I returned the following day, I discovered that someone removed the paper towels, causing them all to be a mixed up mess again, so I proceeded to organize them again. When I returned the next day, someone undid my work again! I would constantly hear the front end ladies complaining about one thing or another, when one day, I finally spoke up when they kept complaining about Mr. So & so coming in again after he was just recently there. I very nicely said, "What difference does it make if he's here again? We have to see so many patients in a day anyway, so it shouldn't matter who they are." They didn't like that, and had expected me to be like them, but I wasn't. I always came in smiling and with a good attitude, ready to work. In the afternoons, when we didn't have a patient, they would all gather around the back computer area and gossip and complain, so I politely asked if there was anything that needed to be done, but they said no. I didn't feel it was right for me to be getting paid for just sitting around, especially because I was new, so I decided to restock and wipe down exam rooms. Apparently, they didn't like that either, because after I had been there about 4 weeks, I got called into the Office Manager's office and was fired. I kinda laughed and said, "What? Really? May I ask why?" She said I was "defiant." I just chuckled in disbelief and decided to just let it go. It wasn't a good work environment, and I'd never recommend them, because they used expired vacutainers, which can alter the outcome of a blood test, and they only wiped down the exam rooms at the end of the week instead of after each patient, plus a few other things. Looking back, I should have called OSHA and reported them! It's too bad, because I loved the patients and they loved me, so they're the ones that usually suffer.

I did a lot of things including trying my hand at some painting. Mostly it was all for fun. My painting started developing and now people are asking for me to paint something. I just had a request for dinosaurs. I have never ever drawn or painted a dinosaur. I looked some images, chose one and made a kind of cartoony painting. For some reason, they liked it. That's the latest one. I love doing birds and florals. I'm in my late 60s. What some call the gray squad. I can't believe the range of followers.

I hope he got some sort of payout after arbitration. He lost more than a salary - he lost very good benefits, including medical and retirement. Among all the horrible corporate news outlets, NBC and MSNBC are the absolute worst.

@@cf4880 I just thought maybe he was set up by his employers so that they had a reason to fire him. I just find the whole thing really strange so I jumped straight into conspiracy mode. Seems like it worked out well for him anyway.

After 2 real close attempts to kill me as a police sergeant with a gun, one was so close that I had gun powder burns on my face. Both were less than 11 months apart. And my attitude changed dramatically. I knew I was being judged and about to be forced out of the job. I ended up taking a medical retirement after 13 years of service. But GOD stepped in and took control. I found a new path and now I’m bringing home twice the income I got being a full time police sergeant. And now my family is doing great and I have a sense of peace and happiness that I haven’t had in a long time.

Good morning! Many years it has been since I heard these songs. I do like the back story on this too. I have had some strange twists and turns in my careers as well. It seems like everything happens for a reason. Life can definitely be unfair. I am currently feeling it. I just trust that it will all work out the way it is meant to be in the end. Thanks Reggie. You are definitely an inspiration. Kurt, you are an inspiration too. I needed you both at this time in my life. 😊Great video!

I woke up in nursing home in 05 being fed through a tube and peeing in a bag. my family was told I would be under nursing care for the rest of my life. Who would have thought that being without pulse for 16 minuets would pave the way to the best years of my life?

Loved this video, well done Reggie and singer brilliant. Really enjoyed this. What a lovely character. I am 75 and still working because I love it, I meet lovely people every day showing them around residential properties to let. I was thinking of retiring at 74 until I spoke to a lovely guy aged 84 and he said to me, if I could get a job tomorrow I would do, those few words, made my mind up for me, to keep doing, what I love doing, meeting lovely people every day. Also a very busy granddad, involved daily in my 3 grandchildren’s lives. From across the pond.

This program was so inspiring after the day I had.....it cheered🤣😆 me up And teared 😢 me up. And I really needed it 💛... A few days ago I found out that my close friend of (46yrs) recently lost her job. It's been weighing on my mind because it stinks. She was a nurse at the same hospital for over 25 years. She was fired over a 4 hours of work on the day she had to euthanize her 16 yr old dog. I saw it happen to some great people in the company I worked for.(CVS). It's not a shock These companies are not above this God bless you and when you sang New York it was absolutely perfect 💙

I have always been an optimistic person. But the last 4 years have been the worst. I was wrongly evicted from my apartment & lost my companion animal, my husband & I lived on the streets of my city. I came to Florida to visit & ended up living on the streets here. I had 3 surgeries by doctors addicted to alcohol and negligence. Now I'm in the hospital in Sarasota. I've been here since July 29th it's August 23rd with 2 more weeks or so to go. This singer gave me a boost back to where I needed to be, my husband and I have to thank both me for this. I am 79 years old now turning 80 your singing makes me feel better. You do a great Frank Sinatra voice. I remember him & his voice. Bring the pitch down 1/2 an octive, I think it's called, I would swear he was in the room. Again Thank you both

My mother died, two weeks later I had to close my business because I was going into debt which meant giving away my herd of grazing goats and my two livestock guardian dogs. So many tears! But then my son and daughter-in-law asked me to come help with my granddaughter around the time the new baby was born.💕💕💕💕😊 I couldn't have done that without losing my mom and my business. All good ❤ So glad you made this new type of video! Good for you!
