 In this episode of Hammer Lane Legends, Brian and Mike sit down with Jim to unpack his decades on the road, from the grueling UPS training grounds to the chaos of city deliveries. Jim opens up about the heart attack that changed everything—how he missed the warning signs, what pulled him through, and the lessons it left behind. Along the way, the guys trade laughs and war stories about life behind the wheel, truck-driving competitions, and the unspoken brotherhood that keeps drivers going long after the road ends.

The Flirty Coworker by Maine's Coast 93.1

Picture this: You're sitting in a meeting watching your coworker present YOUR idea as their own. Your heart is racing, but you say nothing. I've been there. At Amazon, I watched someone steal my idea and get promoted for it. That moment taught me something crucial about surviving in a toxic workplace. The problem isn't that these betrayals happen. The problem is thinking you only have two options: stay silent or blow up. There's a third way. A framework that lets you confront difficult people without feeling like a jerk or damaging your reputation. What You'll Learn In this episode, I share the exact 3-step framework I wish I'd known during my Amazon days. This isn't just theory—I've used this with thousands of coaching clients dealing with workplace anxiety and difficult colleagues. This framework works whether you're dealing with: Coworkers who steal your ideas Colleagues who throw you under the bus in meetings People who say one thing privately and another in front of leadership The chronic "one-upper" on your team Key Takeaways Step 1: State the facts - Call out what actually happened without emotions or interpretations Step 2: Share your honest reaction - Don't apologize for being human, but be truthful about your response Step 3: Give them the benefit of the doubt - Create space for a real conversation by staying curious Why avoiding confrontation keeps you stuck in resentment and feeling like a victim How to process your anger first so you can have the conversation from a genuine place The Real Impact This isn't just about one difficult conversation. When you master this framework, you stop keeping mental scorecards of who you can trust. You break free from the exhaustion of managing toxic relationships. You'll know with confidence who's on your side and who isn't. No more second-guessing yourself or staying stuck in analysis paralysis. Why This Matters Now If you're experiencing burnout from constantly managing difficult workplace relationships, this episode is for you. The average employee at companies like Amazon lasts less than two years. But there's a better way than just surviving until your next job. The brutal truth: Nothing changes if nothing changes. Every week you wait is another week watching less qualified people get promoted while you stay exhausted and undervalued. Take Action Ready to stop letting workplace politics drain your energy?

In this episode, Dr. Kim opens up about how workplace relationships, especially dealing with negative and/or flirtatious coworkers, can impact marriage. He encourages couples to recognize these concerns, lean on biblical truth, and take intentional, practical steps to protect and strengthen their relationship. This episode reminds us of the power of open communication, the importance of setting healthy boundaries, and the hope we can find in trusting God through every season of marriage.   Episode Highlights: Concern about coworkers is a valid issue in marriages. Bad company can corrupt good character, as warned in scripture. It's essential to communicate concerns with love and honesty. Praying for wisdom and protection is crucial in navigating these situations. Strengthening the marriage bond is the best defense against outside influences. Being a positive influence in your spouse's life can counteract negative coworkers. Setting healthy boundaries for workplace relationships is necessary. Knowing when to step back and trust God is important. Focus on building a positive atmosphere at home. Each person is responsible for their own choices before God. 24/7 365 Foreplay   Quotes from this Episode: Walk with the wise and become wise. The company we keep matters. Addressing the situation requires discernment not knee jerk reactions. Even in marriage, where two become one flesh, each person remains an individual. A spouse is to be respected. Communicate with love and honesty. Sometimes the most effective communication comes through questions rather than direct confrontation. The most important thing Nancy and I have done in our marriage is prayer daily. Be that uplifting thing that your spouse needs.  Know when to step back.  Anytime we are in a situation where we could compromise our relationship with our spouse we have to run.  Workplace relationships are significant but they aren't all powerful.   Couple's Conversation Guide: Are there relationships at your workplace that are taking time or emotional energy away from your connection with your spouse? How can you set healthy boundaries? Do any coworkers influence your attitudes or behaviors in ways that conflict with the values you and your spouse have established for your marriage and home? How can your faith guide you in responding to difficult or questionable coworkers while maintaining peace and integrity? What steps can you take to protect your marriage from workplace stress and distractions, ensuring your spouse remains your first priority?   Mentioned in this Episode: Find Dr. Kim on Instagram If you strengthen your marriage at home, the affects of work will lessen!

In the world of leadership, influence, and workplace culture, few things are more delicate—and more impactful—than how feedback is delivered. As a keynote speaker who's worked with countless organizations, I've seen firsthand how a single comment can change the tone of an entire event.

Dentist James Craig faces murder charges for allegedly poisoning his wife of 23+ years--and the mother of his six kids--and today the coworker who reported James Craig and called the police is testifying. As she details what she refers to as disturbing and unusual behavior, jurors listen in as they learn more about the digital evidence, texts and unusual activity leading up to the murder of Angela Craig. Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the #BestGuestsin all of true crime. In this episode, STS host Emmy award-winning journalist Joel Waldman is joined by a former District Attorney in the very are where James Craig is being tried along with another attorney who is an expert in poison murder cases. Accused of poisoning his wife Angela with potassium cyanide hidden in her protein shakes, Dentist Craig James is facing first-degree murder charges. Prosecutors allege he staged a carefully calculated plot, researching lethal substances and ordering poison online while pretending to be a loving husband and father. The case has only gotten darker, with shocking text messages, alleged affairs, and claims of a murder-for-hire plot surfacing as key evidence. James' trial started on July 15, 2025 with opening statements. The state gave infidelity and financial woes as a motive while the defense said their client is innocent--and the investigation was limited only pointing to Craig from the very start. As Craig is on trial and more evidence gets released the question remains-- will justice be served? And what does Justice look like...All Things STS: Https://linktr.ee/stspodcastGet Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSTS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Support the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorCatch us live on YouTube: Surviving The Survivor: #BestGuests in True Crime - YouTubeVenmo Donations: @STSPodcast or Https://www.venmo.com/stspodcast#JamesCraig #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #MurderTrial #KillerDentist #AngelaCraig #PoisoningCase#CrimeStory #JusticeForAngela

A McDonald's manager & mother of 6 is brutally slaughtered by a Coworker because she was sent home early. The employee threatened online "there would be hell to pay" right before the fatal attack. A New Mexico man has been indicted for executing his parents, sister & family dog...then, dragging their lifeless bodies to a ravine to bury the evidence. Plus, a case of bittersweet revenge. Jennifer Gould reports. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As our story unfolded in part one, Louise, Fran's Christian coworker, is asked to approve an expense account of a senior account rep in her group—Jerry—and Louise knows he has included meals that were not with clients but were with his girlfriend. Louise talks with Fran about this dilemma, and Fran invites her over in the evening for prayer and a search of Scripture so Louise will know what to do. That's where our story left off. Just as Fran gets her children ready for bed, the doorbell rings, and Louise arrives. "Whew," Fran says to Louise, "as much as I love them, it's always nice to have the peace and quiet that comes once they're in bed." "But they're so nice, Fran," Louise says. "They really are nice." "Thanks, Louise," Fran replies. "Well, have you given the problem any more thought?" Louise asks. "Off and on all afternoon," Fran says. "I couldn't come up with a specific verse which I thought gave a specific answer, could you?" "Well, not exactly," Louise says. "But I know it would be wrong for me to approve the report, since I know Jerry is cheating. That much I know." "Right, I agree," Fran says. "So now we just have to consider your other options." "Let's start with prayer," Louise suggests, and they spend considerable time praying together. Both pray for wisdom from above, and Louise again confirms to the Lord that she is willing to do his will no matter what the cost will be to her. Fran prays their minds will be renewed by God's Spirit so they won't think incorrectly, and they will know God's good and perfect will. "Louise," Fran says, "I suggest we start by listing all the options you have." "Good idea," Louise agrees, and they get a pad to write on. After some discussion, they come up with only two options: Turn in the report without Louise's approval on it and see what happens. Return the report to Jerry and ask him to complete it and turn it in himself. No longer is any consideration given to approving the report as it is, or lying in any way. They both agree that is not a biblical option. "Let's think about what will happen in each case," Fran suggests. So, she and Louise write down everything they can think of. Option 1, they decide, is simply postponing the inevitable. The report would come back to Louise for completion, and she'd still be faced with the dilemma. Option 2 would mean a direct confrontation with Jerry and would undoubtedly cause him to be very upset with Louise. And Louise is fearful of retribution on his part. After all, Jerry's been around a long time and has some pull in the company. "You know," Louise says, "it's not like Jerry would even miss the $87, Fran. He makes plenty of money. You'd think I was talking about $87,000, the way he acts about this." "Remember Louise," Fran responds, "money makes people do crazy things—even small amounts of money. That's why Jesus said you can't serve God and Money, with a capital M. It has power over people to cause them to do all kinds of dishonest things, and often totally out of proportion to the amount." "You know, you're right," Louise says. "I remember last week I was filling out an expense account for myself and I was really tempted to put down a meal I didn't have to pay for. I had to force myself not to do it, because I wanted to pick up $15." "Oh, it's happened to me many times," Fran says, "and I haven't always done the right thing." "I guess I can't be too hard on poor Jerry," Louise says. "After all, if it weren't for Jesus, I'm sure I'd do the same thing. And even with Jesus, I'm tempted to cheat for a few measly dollars." "Yeah, you're right," Fran agrees. "You know, Louise, we didn't pray for Jerry. We should." And with that, they stop where they are to pray for Jerry, for his salvation, for his family, for Gail, his girlfriend, and for a change of heart to be willing to do the right thing. "I hadn't thought about praying for him," Louise says as they finish.

Let's discuss is the vindictive, malicious, even vicious coworkers who are openly trying to cause you problems and do you harm. The first thing you need to understand is these people are in a world of hurt! They won't admit it, but you can be certain they are miserable. It could be their hostile behavior is caused by the light and salt that emanates from you. You know, Jesus told us men love darkness, and if our lights are shining as they should, we will discover some people not only run from it, they fight it. Have you really stopped to think about what Peter is telling us when said: To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps (1 Peter 2:21). The only way you can learn to accept unjust suffering is to constantly remind yourself that by doing so, you have an opportunity to share in Jesus' suffering, which gives you the great privilege of learning to follow in his steps. Think about it: When you are going through tough waters, you feel very close to someone who's been there before you. When you have an opportunity to taste the kind of suffering Jesus drank fully for us, then you know him better. And that in turn brings his resurrection power into our lives. We've been talking about difficult coworkers, as though the problem is always with the other person and never with us Christians. How I wish that were true, but I know better because I know me! It would do us all good to take a close look and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal to us if we're guilty of any of these difficult characteristics in our relationships with our coworkers. Peter wrote our lives should be above reproach so when others try to find something bad to say about us, they have to manufacture it! I am reminded of what Jesus said to his disciples when they were having difficulty getting along with each other: If you want to be first in my kingdom, you have to be a servant (Matthew 20:26). A servant heart is the sum total of what we've been saying here. As difficult as that is at times, it's much easier than doing it our way. And the benefits we reap are eternal ones. Let's go for it.

Let me ask you, have you ever had to deal with a condescending and arrogant coworker? They talk down to you; they know everything; they're unteachable; they're always right. They're not very easy to endure! I have a friend who worked in a bank, and she was having trouble getting along with an arrogant-type coworker. After prayer and consideration, she started "Project Love," her name for a planned program on her part to bridge the gap between her and her coworker. First, she invited her to have lunch with her. The coworker was a little surprised, but she accepted. Through this, they got to know each other, and my friend discovered underneath the arrogant attitude was a very insecure, fearful person with many personal problems. Now they've become friends, and this woman has frequently turned to my friend for counsel and help. Thankfully my friend was willing to submerge her own normal resentment toward this arrogant, prejudicial coworker and extend herself to make a bridge. Jesus taught us to love our enemies, and this is an example of how we put that principle into practice. It's helpful to remember we don't have to like others to love them. Loving them means acting toward them in considerate and loving ways, even though you may not feel it. Dealing with a domineering coworker Have you ever worked with someone who tried to manage everyone, including their manager? They're always telling you what to do, and everything in you wants to say, "Hey, you're not the boss around here!” Jesus told us to humble ourselves, and that's an important lesson for us to learn. Did you ever think we could use these relationships with domineering people to help us learn humility? It is humbling to keep your mouth shut and not bark back. It is even more humbling to take their direction! There may be times when that's the right thing for us to do. God is interested in developing Christ-like characteristics in us, and sometimes he uses unfair and uncomfortable circumstances for that purpose. Learning humility is how we become more and more transformed into the likeness of Jesus. If God has you in humility school right now, trust him to bring you through, and while you're there, learn your lessons well. Don't rebel and get bitter. Use it as a tool for righteousness. God is so good at doing that for us. Remember, if a confrontation is called for, our motives have to be carefully examined to make certain we're confronting for the other person's good, not just to vent our frustration.

Have you ever had a problem getting along with someone you work with? Most of us have, and it surely can cause a lot of grief, can't it? I can tell you Christians certainly are not immune to these interpersonal conflicts. We need some biblical principles to guide us. Let's consider the problems that arise when we deal with a negative coworker. Dealing with a negative coworker Our worlds are full of negative thinking and talking people. It seems they have nothing good or encouraging to say about anything or anyone. If you've ever had to work closely with a very negative individual (and who hasn't!), you know just how tough it is to be around that person. This is one of those times when you need lots of compassion, because compassion lengthens your tolerance and helps you think about where the other person is coming from and what's causing them to be so negative. I think without Christ, I'd be negative in this world most of the time. There are a couple of proverbs which apply here. A cheerful look brings joy to the heart (Proverbs 15:30). One way to fight the irritation is to keep your own spirits up, and a smile on your face will help do that. Have you learned the secret of smiling? I know when I'm feeling down, frustrated, or irritated, if I can make myself smile, it starts to change the way I feel. I think God gave us the ability to smile to keep us going in the middle of tough situations. I encourage you to try smiling a lot more. An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up (Proverbs 12:25). Some kind words spoken to that negative person might be the key to getting him or her to open up and share their real feelings with you, and in so doing, you may discover their negative attitude is a cover-up for fear or anxiety. If they can share that with you, it gives you an opportunity to be of help to them. It doesn't always work that way, but it's worth a try. Give them some kind words, in spite of their negativism. One warning here. Be careful you don't allow them to bring you down to their negative levels. Fight back by humming choruses to yourself. Quote Scripture to yourself. Change the conversation to something positive. Often, we allow negative people to set the tone and drag everybody else down with them. Guard your own mind against the onslaught of negativism.

I wonder how many of you are in a work environment where there is conflict among coworkers, perhaps even a personal conflict you are facing. It happens quite frequently, and as Christians, we need to be aware of biblical principles in dealing with these difficult coworkers. Yesterday we were talking about the lazy coworker, who doesn't do his or her share of the work. We pointed out one principle to consider is the extra-mile principle given in Matthew 5. I can hear some of you saying, "What? Are Christians supposed to be doormats? I don't buy that.” What I find myself and other Christians doing so often is rationalizing and watering down God's principles based on our own reasoning processes and the influence of this world's thinking on us. We think Jesus taught us to go the extra mile and love our enemies and all that, but he wasn't referring to this type of situation. And we begin to pick and choose our beliefs from Scripture. You know, I've decided if I'm going to make an error in applying God's Word, I'd like to err in favor of going too far rather than not doing enough, for a change. Now, let me assure you I don't think it's right for people to be lazy. But how other people act and react shouldn't change our commitment to God's principles. Matthew 5 gives principles for dealing with people who are doing the wrong thing; people who are against us, people who cause us problems and difficulties. I'm not saying we should do the lazy person's work forever, and never say anything. There are times when an open confrontation with the lazy coworker and/or with management is appropriate. Jesus confronted people frequently, but never to vent his own frustrations. He always confronted for their good and benefit, and I think that has to be our guiding principle in determining who and when to confront. What we must guard against is this build-up of bitterness, which can quickly happen when we're dealing with lazy coworkers. We can't blame bitterness on others. It's our responsibility to keep a root of bitterness from growing within us.

We typically spend eight hours a day on our jobs—with coworkers and peers whom we might never voluntarily choose to spend one-third of our waking hours each week. But there we are—together! And even though we're Christians, we're not immune to the irritations, aggravations, and outright conflicts that can exist between coworkers. Let's face it: coworkers can get to you! However, these relationships give us opportunities as Christians to demonstrate the power of Christ, to show that his presence makes a real difference in our everyday lives. Some close friends were at my home and several of them were sharing the struggles they are facing on their jobs with coworkers. But in each case, as they shared how God had helped them get along with those coworkers, they told of dying to their own rights and then watching God work miracles in those situations. And in each instance, their ability to deal in a Christ-like way with a difficult coworker has opened a door of witness on their jobs. In many of those situations, the coworker has not yet changed, and their behavior is extremely difficult. But even when they don't change, God can change us, so we are equipped to handle it properly. Often God just gives us grace to cope, grace to endure, grace to accept, even though the other person never changes. But isn't that just as great a miracle as changing the other person? I think so. Let's look at one type of difficulty we encounter with coworkers. Dealing with the lazy coworker Sometimes we have to work with a person who is lazy, and if we have to pick up his or her slack, we may find ourselves becoming bitter and resentful. And of course, that would show in sarcastic words, angry looks, body language, etc. In these situations, we need to know whether to confront the situation; to let the work go undone; to go to management; or to do the work for a while. One principle to consider is we are called to have an extra-mile attitude in our relationships with others. Read Matthew 5 beginning at verse 38 to refresh your memory on how Jesus taught us to go the extra-mile. Of course, this is not the world's solution, and it goes against all our natural reactions. But God may have good reasons for us to go the extra mile and be willing to do what we don't have to do.
