This post will not make me popular. I know this, but I’m going to post it anyway. At 22 years old, the young man in the shared post has the road freight industry at his feet. He’s excited about his job, and his boss has put a lot of faith in him, which is awesome. He’s clearly worthy of such confidence and faith, which is rare in our industry. In short - he’s a diamond. However, if he doesn’t change his lifestyle, he’s not going to be around to fulfil his ambitions 😢 This is NOT a body shaming post. I’m very concerned for his future but I admit I don’t know what he’s eating; or drinking; or whether he’s exercising or not; or whether he has health conditions that cause him to appear, in the only photo I’ve seen of him, to be very overweight. My only concern is that he appears to be not of great health for a 22 year old. This is an amazing young person who has a wonderful future; the opportunity to have a family and maybe his own transport company. But if he doesn’t look after his health, it will be just a dream. A beautiful, tragic dream that isn’t realised. If we don’t start acting and doing something about the health of drivers in our industry, there won’t be an industry to worry about. I know that Healthy Heads in Trucks & Sheds has done amazing work with bp to offer wonderfully healthy options for drivers; but what happens when they’re not at a bp ? We need to do more. We need to encourage drivers to visit their Doctor every year as an absolute minimum to cover off all the items they should be for a health check. We need drivers to demand healthy options at truck stops, not fried food, regardless of whether it’s a bp or not. We need to promote healthy eating in the same manner as we promote mental health and road safety. Otherwise, people like Nick will become just another statistic of our industry. We need to do better for legends like him 💖

This is the take. Simon is right. Please do read it. And do consider its implications. In the #organisationdevelopment and #leadership community we of course abhor the injustices of racialisation and racism. We are, are we not, good people whose work is grounded in values and principle. This is not good enough. The dust will settle. For many, white folk, our urgency and realisation will fade. This week I have felt more keenly than ever the deep sorrow, rage and love that #antiracist work evokes in me. I must hang on to, feed, and act from and with those feelings. #OrganisationDevelopment and #Change practitioners and practice must remember and demonstrate our foundation is in social justice work. We must actively work to dismantle structural racism, show racialisation to be the heinous crime that it is, stand firm and ever strive in our commitment to equity and belonging for everyone. Not just because it is right and we are good. Because the inhumanity of this demeans and diminishes us all, including those of us who, like me, can leave the house never having to fear abuse and attack on us, or our families, because of the colour of our skin.

#ruffaroundtheedges - FITTING IN - Part 49 Ruffaroundtheedges and continuing to weave all the themes together over the last year that I have explored and have been able to capitalize upon with the help from Leanne Kinde, and this interesting reflection that Leanne brought to my attention. I intend that often I am helping people who do not seem to fit in or maybe a little misfit in their prior careers or prior thinking. And that goes further to talk about when I look at a problem or situation. I come at it from a “no box thinking” point of view or, you know, how do the misfits fit into something that fits? You see “out of the box” is structured by the box, no boxes mean no limitations in your thinking. Jumbled words there, but, hopefully, you get my drift. A part of my legacy is helping people who may be unable to fit in to fit in or figure out where they belong. As happened to me, I had to move continents to figure out where I belonged, and how I fit in, and I belong in the USA, no questions asked. https://lnkd.in/geJFWK7i #theguyintheblueshirt wonders do you have any examples of not "fitting in"?

Hello Steaven Klein and TJ McFarland, CFS (Brikksen) I am not trying to steal TJ's thunder in any way, shape, or form. BUT I had another customer complain that he got the wrong thing. (This text blatantly stolen and plagiarized from TJ and use with apologies and I hope he laughs.) Celebrating the first (and likely last) “WTF Wednesday”! Can you educate your industry colleagues? Test your knowledge! The first person to COMMENT with the best and PROPER product description for BOTH PARTS, elaborate on where these fasteners are commonly found, and what the primary differences are, then LIKE and SHARE this post prior to the big reveal will get the bragging rights! Where can you find these? Be as specific as possible to secure the glory! Don't be shy! Test your skills! What did my customer do wrong? (We know, but the customer used the wrong name and we sent what he asked for.) #whatisitwednesday #buildingstrongconnections #fasteners
