Service to others and being humble in the action is a good thing. Even if it means doing things that aren’t always fun or easy.
If you like your laptops, pads, phones, Netflix and other stuff that requires power remember that your electric/utility company makes that stuff run so pay your bill.
When organizations and businesses are making life altering decisions it’s helpful to give those impacted a courtesy heads-up to let them know what is going on. Especially when it involves young people who have to make vital decisions that can impact their future. It also goes for others too. Candor is a good thing in situations like this.
