My staff and I got fired for reporting our employer

I work for a school district as grants manager. They were misusing funds, I tried to get them to fix it, but they ignored me. I couldn't have covered it up if I wanted to, so I told the feds. It's far from the only problem. My staff also reported something to me, which I was legally obligated to turn in. Now they're firing us both. Since we're both on contracts, rather than fire us on the spot, they notified us that they won't renew our contracts. It's smarter than firing us, but I think it's still clearly retaliation. I'm suing them. Still, I've never been fired. I feel terrible and somewhat responsible that my staff got fired. I feel betrayed. I'm scared for the wellbeing of the children under these corrupt admin. I care less about my own job than my staff and the children. I need to get…

1 in 8 Americans have worked at a McDonald’s restaurant

From their website. 1 in 8 People Have Something Special in Common Over the last 65 years, we have served billions of orders. To many, serving means so much more than food. Behind those orders are the crew, managers, families and communities we serve. Without them, so much of this service at the the Golden Arches would not be possible. Believe it or not, 1 in 8 Americans have worked at a McDonald's restaurant. That's a lot of people with the power to make more customers’ days than anyone else. That's a lot of lives changed with flexible hours that work around any schedule. That's a lot of people that know you can grow here or keep growing from here. I have not had the pleasure. ​ https://preview.redd.it/2qua08vg221b1.png?width=1350&format=png&auto=webp&v=enabled&s=40d21df825ad30cc1f264d2ce8e0038b9381ce37

We close at 7 o’ cock

I used to manage a bank in a grocery store around 2007 which was a “fairly” new concept with more then bank hours…. usually only 2 people worked at a time after 4. People would call relentlessly from 5 on to ask when we closed… My answer would always be 7 o' cock. It was close enough to clock where very very few people would have a reaction other then… Umm did you say 7? Lol. Still one of my favorite memories from working in that hell hole.

My boyfriend works for a Darden owned restaurant. Him and a coworker tied for 3rd place on server rankings and each got some scratch off tickets for a chance to win free food. This is what was revealed.

Was promised promotion, last minute it didn’t go through but I’m still expected to do the duties???

Yeah what the title says. My manager says I can keep the store keys for “convenience” while not getting any of the monthly bonus that key holders get. I just got off of medical leave a few weeks ago and now they’re treating me like dog shit. Not even giving me all the time off needed for medical appointments.
