Best company in Texas. By far.
Still privately owned by the family that opened their first store in Kerrville, TX with $60 in 1905. The company provides self-funded healthcare to employees, created their own not-for-profit employee credit union, give shares in ownership to employees starting at 1 year of service (essentially a profit-sharing scheme) and annually gives 5% of all pre-tax profit to various charities in the state. They also maintain a fleet of trucks and trailers to serve as first responders with food, water and medicine during disasters and provide millions of dollars for teachers and schools all over the state each year.
I believe H-E-B is now the 20th largest retailer in the country, employing 80K people in Texas and Mexico. Despite being such do-gooder anti-capitalists the family is worth $20 billion and I'd bet the Chairman (Charles), who is rumored to be homosexual and has no wife/children, ends up giving away the bulk of his fortune when he passes.
BTW, the family's name is Butt. Yep. H-E-B are the initials of the eldest son of the founders, Harold E. Butt.

The thing with Bay he just loves blowing things up. I wish I was him so I could make a movie about Anfield blowing up and get every angle for a good hour and half and sell it some porn site.

Wow now I'm even more impressed with this company. Why can't all businesses operate similarly (wink, wink Amazon). A business capable of providing healthcare and other forms of compensation to its employees, make charitable donations, be good member of the community, a business that makes use of their money to do good things and still is profitable. It goes to show that such business model works but some big businesses and corporations are just too greedy.

What happened to sheep and horses before Man started to shear the sheep and trim horses hooves, donkeys too for that matter. Where the sheep walking around with haystack size loads of wool on there back, did the horses and donkeys all look like they were wearing Arabian style slippers with the curly toes, I’ve often pondered on this
Put my car in for some work, got a loaner a Mitsubishi Lancer...mechanically it was probably for purpose, but the rest was awful.
No matter which direction you were driving the sun / light managed to shine off the Instruments, the elbow rest on the door was too low, all you could see in the rear view mirror was the 'kin spoiler and a reflection of the rear parcel shelf and that just in a couple of hours when I had it

I've not been back to Liverpool since January 2020 and I can't tell you how much I'm missing a Scouse chippy sausage dinner.

Don't forget to pop that Statin before bed tonight.
I remember going to a chippy in Sheffield and they put fluffing cheese in my sausage dinner's gravy - cheese and bloody gravy. Heathens!
They didn't get salt and pepper either.

Isn’t Corrie really boring at the moment?. The Ray Crosby scenes were mildly engaging but now he’s gone...nothing.
The show needs new writers and director...and get rid of some of the deadwood characters. I would start with Billy, Paul and Todd...that threesome bore me to tears...so does Fizz
