To make workplaces a place to settle for workers

Waiting for tomorrow
|
Late in the afternoon, he stopped his car at a red-light intersection. An old lottery ticket seller stepped in, handing over a stack of tickets that were already damp from sweat. The strange thing is that on that face full of wrinkles, there was still a very bright smile. He bought one, the old woman smiled and thanked him and said: "Hope you win tomorrow". When the green light turned on, she leisurely stepped into another car, still with that smile, as if carrying a hope to share for tomorrow.
The crop button
|
I have a friend who often tells world stories. He knows everything, as firmly as if he was himself at the scene. From the story of the newly opened coffee shop being profitable or losing money, the internal struggles of that company, to the marriage of an artist having problems. One day, while talking non-stop, someone at the table burst out laughing and pointed at his chest: "Hey, you buttoned your shirt wrongly!". Everyone looked down, indeed his shirt had been buttoned incorrectly from the first button. Everyone laughed loudly, making him blush. It's also strange, a person who can "see through" secrets kilometers away, doesn't recognize the wrong button right in front of his chest.

Charging the battery
|
There is a very modern paradox. The phone in our pocket is often fuller than the person holding it. Every night, before going to bed, many people always have a habit of finding a charging cable. As soon as the battery is left at 20%, they start to worry. And if it goes down to 5%, the feeling of anxiety appears as if they are about to lose contact with the whole world.
Don't let consumers "bet" on food themselves

Food of unknown origin, fake goods, and poor quality goods continuously detected in recent times show "loopholes" in food safety management. Consumers become the most exposed to risks, but are the ones with the least information to protect themselves.
Emotions and discipline
|
He often compares himself to a wordsmith. Every morning when he goes to a sidewalk coffee shop, ordering a glass of dark ice without concentrated sugar, he sees a vibrant world, sometimes bustling around. The girl at the next table has red eyes because of heartbreak, the guy in the corner is shouting loudly on the phone, his hand smashing the table loudly because of a broken contract. And the old man has a tense face as if he just argued with his wife, whining and scolding the shop owner this morning for making coffee harder than usual.

Denying yourself
|
There are breakups that happen in one day. Just one sentence, one signature or a door closes and everything ends. But there are also losses that last for many years that the person involved does not realize. That is when we try to keep a person, a relationship or a dream by gradually abandoning ourselves.
Ten thousand miles from one step
|
There are sayings we hear from a very young age, we hear so much that we think we have fully understood their meaning. But then we have to go through several decades of life, witness a few separations, many failures and many times standing at crossroads without knowing whether to go or stay, you suddenly realize that you have never really understood that saying. "The journey of ten thousand miles begins with one step", Lao Tzu's words sound so simple that there is almost nothing to argue about, but the more you experience life, the more you understand and deeply understand.
