THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!
Dear John,
What do I do with my son? My sweet little four-year-old has turned into a dumpster-diving scavenger and he just won't stop. Well, not dumpsters exactly. But it's bad. He scrapes gum from under tables in restaurants - and chews it. He looks for half-empty bottles of juice in the street - and drinks it. He goes through trash cans looking for anything he can eat. It's not like he's hungry. He eats well. It's just that he's disgusting. Why is he attracted to this garbage? My husband says to not worry about it and he'll pass through this "phase". But isn't there something I should do about it?
Signed
Mortified Momma

It seems these days, companies are not only pushing employees back into the office — they’re getting rid of those who won’t. New stats show that full-time remote workers were 35% more likely to be laid off than their in-office peers in 2023. Live Data Technologies found that 10% of remote employees were laid off last year, compared to just 7% of in-office or hybrid colleagues. Experts attribute this to a lack of personal connection with managers, who tend to cut remote workers first when payrolls are trimmed. The results also show that remote workers are more likely to quit.

You
might think kids just use TikTok to waste time watching cat videos
and doing silly dances. But they’re actually using it to learn
about the world and form opinions, because for Gen Z, TikTok is the
new Google. According to a report from Search Engine Journal, 64% of
those 27 and under are using TikTok as a search tool. Rather than
Googling – or (gasp!) using a book to ask a question or look for a
recommendation, TikTok’ers users are seeking out influencers and
video creators for answers on everything from medical advice to the
Israel-Palestine conflict.

Adam Sandler’s next film will be about outer space.
A 100-year-old British World War II vet has walked hundreds of miles around his garden to raise money for charity—every day, rain or shine. Strolling behind his walker, Lance Corporal Harold Jones circles his back garden 30 times each day, and has been doing so since 2020. He was inspired by the media frenzy surrounding the late ‘Captain Tom’, who did the same thing during the worst of the pandemic, and raised big money for hospitals. Corporal Jones has so far taken his walker over 661 miles (1,064km), a total of 41,550 laps around his garden, or about the same distance as his home in Birmingham to the border of Germany. Oh, and by the way, Corporal Jones says his ankles, knees and hips are “perfect”, but he does get experience a bit of back pain, possibly because at one point he “broke it in 3 places.” LINK: https://youtu.be/RqJBvm_WqoU

If there’s one thing you need to know about Montrealers, it’s this: Don’t mess with their bagels. But someone has done exactly that. Beloved baker maker St-Viateur Bagel is offering them up without a hole these days, igniting something of a ‘holey war’ in the city. Manager Saul Restrepo isn’t sure what the fuss is about. After all, he said, “It’s the same thing, (same) hand-made same process that we do but… no hole!” The “bagelution” is actually a promotion with Philadelphia Cream Cheese, being conducted in 5 North American cities. The idea is that a bagel with no hole provides more surface for you to spread your favourite schmear. But the idea has proven to be so controversial that some people won’t accept one, even when offered as a free sample.
