I once worked for social services. I was involved in a case where both parents were essentially retarded. And I don't mean retarded in the Internet insult kind of way. They had one kid after another, until the school of one of the kids raised a concern about their ability to protect the children. Despite … Continue reading Sometimes Love Isn’t Enough
Four Steps To Incorporate Self-Improvement At Work

When I think about it, it annoys and frustrates me, so I try not to think about it too much. … Continue reading Four Steps To Incorporate Self-Improvement At Work
The Wisdom of aquentances
Acquaintances may be friends of friends, people you work with, neighbours, professionals.
