Will America Ever Be The Same Post COVID-19?

UNITED STATES─If you were to ask me a month ago where things stood in America regarding the coronavirus crisis, I would say we were on the right side of things. Ask me that question today, and I feel like we are traveling down a path that is NOT good and I’m worried where things are headed people. Now, I’ve...

Lazy Beyond Words Can Explain

UNITED STATES─Since I’ve started working I have never been a fan of people who are lazy. I know I should not care about what others do on the job, but when I have to work with you, to see you and to be in your presence when I’m working my tail off I have a major problem. I know...

Mosquito Infestation

UNITED STATES─Summer is officially here, and with that said, we not only have the heat in full force, but a pesky little insect that I’ve hated since I was a kid: the mosquito. Mosquitos are annoying as hell, and it seems we haven’t talked about the creature known for causing a pandemic involving the West Nile Virus (not to...

To Wear A Mask Or Not?

UNITED STATES─This is baffling and I don’t know any other way to say this beyond what I’m going to say: this pandemic is not over America. Look, this is no political push; I’m not getting something for bringing this to anyone’s attention, but c’mon America we have to be smarter than what we currently are. Rather you like it...

Cost Of Food Is High America

UNITED STATES─Recent reports have surfaced that the cost of food has been on the rise and I know I’m not the only person who has seen it. Yes, price gouging has taken place at many grocers, who should be ashamed of their actions. I mean come on, we’re in a pandemic people, and people are charging crazy rates for...

Do Not Let Your Guard Down

UNITED STATES─I swear I feel like this COVID-19 pandemic has taught us as a country we are way stronger than what we perceive. However, being locked down for weeks is something that can be quite trying America, and I mean trying. Imagine going 3 months without a haircut, being in the house for weeks on end, having to wear...

Patience That I No Longer Seem To Have

UNITED STATES─I’ve known this for a while, but it seems to hit me more and more as I get older: my patience is waning. Why? I had to make a run, as it seems the economy is slowly, but surely reopening and it seems things while not normal is trying to get there. I have no problem waiting in...

Uncomfortable Talking About Race, Why?

UNITED STATES─This is a question that I’ve constantly had to ask myself time and time again: why is the topic of race something that so many people are afraid to discuss. Right now our country is in the midst of one of the biggest, most politically, devastating and eye-opening times we’ve ever seen. Race relations have reached a point...

Stress Creates More Stress

UNITED STATES─If there is one thing most Americans have in common even if they don’t realize it: its stress. Yes, it’s a six-letter word, one that forces so many of us to want to tear out our hair, while others find ways to cope with it. What exactly does that mean? It means we all encounter stress, but everyone...

Protests Gone Wrong

UNITED STATES─Our country is indeed facing unspeakable times right now. Race has always been a heavily debated and decisive topic. We want to talk about it, but at the same time we don’t, however, with the current state of the world, there is no hiding from it. The tragic and unfathomable death of George Floyd has left the entire...
