Actually that diagram sounds pretty useful for training new hires. Some processes need every step spelled out.

Come on, it's pretty clear some jobs are just easier to get into than others. Like jobs that don't need a degree or years of training. But that doesn't mean the work itself is easy, far from it.

Memorizing Connect Four patterns once made me hate playing it with my niece. I got so focused on blocking every possible move that I stopped noticing she was just happy to drop the red chips. Turns out letting her win sometimes made both of us have a better time. Chasing the perfect strategy can blind you to the point of playing together. Fun’s usually more about who’s at the table than what’s on it.

Seriously, that stove story is wild, kinda like what @phoenix_grant34 mentioned with the biohazard jacket. My cousin returned a tent after three years of festivals, covered in mud with a ripped rainfly. It smelled like a mix of beer and wet dog, and the poles were bent. He just shrugged and said it 'wasn't holding up,' and they gave him store credit. Now I'm picturing a warehouse full of destroyed gear from returns like that.
