2020 Year of the Toilet Paper Crisis, Toilet Paper Gallery

This is a character I created using my Picsart editing app. I called it Toilet Paper Hoarder. 

This Is My Friend

My friend quit at my job. He was my tech and lead. He was essential to me, a part of my every day at work. He fixed my machine and was very respectful. I also had fun working with him.

When my friend quit, I felt a big loss, empty without my friend.

So I took a risk, I asked him to be my friend on Facebook. He accepted. From then on we carry on like we're still coworkers. Joking around, play games, and discussing life.

I tell my friend all the things that happened to me at work. He gives me advice and encouragement.

I had a performance review, it was a good review but...

I was blamed for some quality issues.

I was also passed over for a raise.

I told my friend everything that was going on.

One night I was feeling really down about my job, didn't feel going to work anymore. An idea popped into my head. Maybe I should find another job?

I get home from work to find a message from my friend...

"Hey if your looking for a job like KMC . I work at a new job being a robot operator and they have all the machines that kmc has and more....... they are hiring for all shifts 1, 2, and 3rd...... check out WI STAMPING ....... great environment, fun people"

It was like he heard me thinking. I wonder if he sent the message the same time I thought about looking for a better job? (He used to show up out of nowhere when we worked together, just when I needed him to fix my machine, just when I thought about asking him.)

I applied to the company my friend recommended. I had a phone interview. I told my friend about the interview.

His response..

"I’m gonna bring it up to them on Monday about your interview"

I thought my friend would forget what he said he would do.

Surprise...

"I talked to my boss, he said he wasn’t convinced but I changed his mind and told him that I wouldn’t put my neck out there for someone that I know wouldn’t work. I told him your a hard worker and that you always hit your numbers and everything so when this virus gets contained somewhat then he’s gonna call u so hang in there at AAA."

Now if this virus would just go away, so can see what happens next. 

I can't believe my friend did something so nice for me. My friend gave his boss a personal recommendation for me.

I work hard at my current job and I deserve to be paid better. My friend is an actual witness to my work ethics and character.

This relationship is working in mysterious ways. Like my friend was meant to be in my life.
