The $2.50 Lunch Service

The $2.50 Lunch Service

After the school cafeteria for elementary school kids shut down, I decided to offer meals for all the kids in our building at my home. At the end of the month, when it came time to settle the bill, one of the neighbors wasn’t happy. “The new caterer downstairs only charges $2.50 per meal, but you’re charging us $5! That’s an extra $75 per kid per month. Do you have no shame?” she accused me. I calmly explained that I only used free-range meat and organic vegetables in my meals. But no matter how patiently I tried to reason with them, the parents insisted I refund the difference and demanded I charge no more than $2.50 per meal moving forward. When I lowered my costs to meet their demands, they started accusing me of mistreating their children. They went online to expose me and even reported me to the authorities. The online attacks were relentless. I was fined, and my husband lost his job because of the controversy surrounding me. The stress pushed me into depression, and in the end, I jumped off a building to end it all. When I opened my eyes again, I saw those same parents being swayed by others in the neighborhood to send their kids to the new daycare service that only charged $2.50 a day. What they didn’t know was that the lunch caterer next door did serve meat every day—but it was frozen, diseased pork that had been sitting in storage for two years.

OSUKATEÏ  l’âme de l’Arbre-Mère livre 2

OSUKATEÏ l’âme de l’Arbre-Mère livre 2

GEOFFREY LEGRAND
« J'arrive à un âge où en dépit du bois qui l'a nourrie, ma flamme n'est plus qu'une lueur vacillante, de celles qui usent les yeux pour écrire ses mémoires. Elle jette toutefois sur mes heures passées une lumière apaisée et éclaire mes actes sous un angle honnête. Loin de l'hagiographie chantée par les bardes, elle souligne les faits glorieux sans écraser les zones d'ombre. » Héritière de l'Arbre-Mère, Luwise se rêve en artisan de paix, protectrice d'Okateï, unificatrice des royaumes sylvestres et des Enténébrés. Ses nobles ambitions se heurtent aux scepticismes et aux réticences des Seigneurs, humains et démoniaques, jaloux de leurs pouvoirs. Luwise devra faire la preuve que son titre n'est pas une coquille vide. Par la force et par les mots, elle devra gagner les coeurs et mater ses rivaux. Le chemin est étroit entre sagesse et tyrannie, il est aisé de se perdre soi-même. L'ère d'Osukateï s'ouvre dans un brasier qui pourrait bien consumer le monde.

Факультет интриг и пакостей - 2. Охота на мавку

Александра Черчень
Не успела Невилика отделаться от доставучего лиса, как на бедную болотницу посыпались новые проблемы! То Глава Ассамблеи привидений вниманием почтит, то к вампиру наживкой отправляться нужно, то дорогие родственнички на горизонте нарисуются. В общем, все как в военной поговорке: «Чем страшнее, тем веселее». Но все бы ничего, если бы не дух-убийца. Вот не могут его поймать лучшие кадры службы безопасности, и все тут! И с новыми мертвецами, которые регулярно появляются в Академии Триединства, становится понятно – всех вообще и мавку в частности он в покое не оставит. Одна надежда на бравых защитников Академии. Теперь будущее Невилики напрямую зависит от того, кто окажется хитрее и быстрее… древний призрак или его противники?

Royalty or Love #1&#2

Royalty or Love #1

For the people to feel the Royalty of the blood in their veins doesn’t mean that they are ruling their kingdom, or they have some Kingdom. Their lineage to the ancestors who are former and last rulers is more than enough to get the pride of being a royalty which they were taught from the time they started learning things. Three Princes who are not going to rule someplace, but they have the title because of their bloodline and have education, wealth and skills in many things at the top range. However, to be able to love is a wealth which cannot be achieved by simply thinking about it or by some lineage. They may be the Princes in the matter of their birth and the life they are leading, but they will learn more about the real wealth from three women who are princesses by heart. The things they believe and trust will build a wall stopping the love from these princesses to reach them. Will it be broken to make it possible? If it is, then how and by whom? Or will prove to be too late by the time it breaks? Join the journey of six people who are in different moments in their lives, but destiny always has a way with them…
