The policy states that “applicants with obvious missing, broken, or badly discolored teeth (unrelated to a disability) are not qualified for employment with Sheetz.”

Sheetz spokesperson Nick Ruffner, reached for comment Wednesday, acknowledged the policy and said it “will continue to be under review.”

The improbability of George Santos’ $199 expenses

Rep. George Santos’ congressional campaign reported dozens of transactions just cents below the threshold that would have triggered a requirement to preserve spending records — an unusual spending pattern that is now part of broader complaints about alleged financial improprieties.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a cardio queen or a passionate yogi looking for new Yoga routines; without motivation, staying fit is one of the most challenging tasks of your life.

Like everything in this world, motivation is
