I ordered new glasses at Costco two weeks ago. They never texted or emailed that they were ready for pickup.

Today I asked the attendant at the Vision Center when my glasses had arrived because I was never notified. They told me that it wasn’t their problem, that they had nothing to do with notifications, and I should look for a QR code on my way out so I could let corporate know what happened.

So here is my story, Costco. Please do better.

Three Mississippi community colleges are included in the Metallica program that supports workforce training in 93 community colleges across the US.

Metallica is one of the biggest metal bands on the planet. What most of their fans don't know is what the band has quietly been building off stage: one of the largest trade-school pipelines in the country.

It runs through their foundation, All Within My Hands, and specifically the Metallica Scholars Initiative. In partnership with the American Association of Community Colleges, the band funds career and technical education, real, hands-on training for real jobs. Welding. Plumbing. Electrical work. And increasingly, nursing, EMT and firefighting, automotive repair, pipefitting, and agriculture.

The scale is the surprising part. As of 2026, the program supports 93 community colleges across all 50 states, plus Guam. Its latest round alone put more than 3 million dollars into those schools. And it has now backed some 13,000 students in learning skills that lead to stable, well-paying careers, with the program recently expanding overseas too.

Frontman James Hetfield has explained why it matters to them. Touring, he points out, runs entirely on skilled trades: the electricians, drivers, cooks, and mechanics who make every show possible. The band said it wanted to reinvest in exactly those kinds of workers.

No splashy campaign. No album tie-in. Just a metal band deciding that the people who build and fix and wire the world deserve a shot, and quietly footing the bill for thousands of them 🤘

Tell me honestly:

Do you stop and pick up a penny from the sidewalk?

1) nah, got to be at least a dime.
2) you kidding? Money is money.
3) Pennies are going to be worth more someday.
4) a penny saved is a penny earned.

Sitting with Mama in The movie room at her assisted living. She is falling asleep between sips of the chocolate milkshake I made for her at my home.
Even the loud movie is not keeping her awake.
