    • Goalsetting in 2022

      It’s a new year, and with a new year comes new goals. What is it you really want to do? Snag a new job? Change careers entirely? Get a promotion? Or maybe you just want to be happier and healthier than you were last year. When it comes to goals, nothing is too big or too small. It all depends on what you personally want to accomplish. Here’s how to kick things off. Start with lists If you’re not sure what you want your goals to be this year that’s totally okay! It’s still early, and you have plenty of time to decide.

    • New Year, New Resume

      We’re a few weeks into the new year, and if you haven’t set goals yet, it’s time to hunker down and get started. A great first goal? Updating your resume!

    • Foods to Avoid Outside the Breakroom

      Sometimes our favorite food is one that offends the noses of our co-workers. Maybe it’s a fearsome fish or a bowl of hard-boiled eggs. Or perhaps whatever you’re eating, unbeknownst to you, is just loud to consume. You might think you’re nibbling on your pretzels, but to anyone sitting near you it’s the most annoying sound imaginable. Honestly, if you’ve done any of the above, we can’t really blame you. Sometimes we just don’t know a food is perturbing until someone tells us. So we are, telling you some foods to avoid outside the breakroom. Fish This one is probably the most frequent complaint on our list. For whatever reason, microwaved fish leaves a foul smell behind. We’re not scientists, but to put it simply, this happens because of the way the microwave breaks down the fatty acids in the fish. Even if you personally like the smell of microwaved fish, for many people it’s a strong smell they aren’t exactly fond of. Crunchy Pretzels or Chips If you can …
