Kids be so damn cute and innocent like how

Awwww

This story was different actually??? And even better???

The girl, Brooklyn Andracke, used to wave at the truck every thursday and the trashman waved her back. It was a very important to her to do it every week. 

It was HER birthday, and she decided that she wanted to share her birthday cake with the trashman. She also wanted to meet her hero, whose name is Delvar Dopson.

The girl’s mother thanked Delvar for his work and explained to him how important it is for Brooklyn to wave at him every thursday.

He was pretty surprised but he admitted that every time he drove near the house he hoped that the girl would wave at him. 

That’s not the end of the story though. Next week Delvar had a surprise for the little girl.

He brought her a bunch of amazing birthday gifts!

They both got quite popular, and Delvar is getting a lot of thank you messages from trashmen from all over the world for representing them in such a good way.

Desperate Nissan goes on an all-out dirty anti-union blitz in Mississippi

The workers at the Nissan plant in Canton, Mississippi are attempting to organize under the United Auto Workers, but Nissan is fighting the “nastiest anti-union campaign” in modern history, breaking the law so egregiously that even Trump’s National Labor Relations Board has filed a series of complaints against the company.

Nissan is joined in its union-bashing campaign by Mississippi Republican governor Phil Bryant, who has told the people of his state that asking for a living wage and humane working conditions will “end manufacturing as we know it in Mississippi.”

Nissan employee Morris Mock doesn’t think the scare tactics will work: “Workers are numb to it. Most of them been in there 14 years, and in 28 days, you can’t convince a Nissan worker that you are a good company.”

The decline in union membership since Reagan made it a crusade to destroy unions almost 40 years ago continues to be underreported as a reason for stagnation in working class wages.
