  • So I thought I pulled a great prank once. I made a QR code that directed to lemonparty. I used an online sticker service’s free trial to print a bunch up with my friend’s Instagram at the bottom. I travel all over for work so I was going to put them everywhere.

    My problem was I printed them in yellow and they wouldn’t scan. I told my friend and he thought it was a funny idea just like I knew he would, not a malicious prank. Wish it had worked.






  • I took a class on behavioral interviewing back when I was a food service general manager. It was very different from the question on the form above. I had to interview a lot of people. Hundreds over the years.

    The essence of behavioral interviewing is actually very simple.

    Rather than ask “Can you tell me about your leadership abilities?”

    You ask “Can you tell me about a time when you used your leadership abilities to overcome a problem?”

    Most of the time they will answer as if you asked the first question. Let them finish or wait for a pause, then say “What I’d really like to know is if you can tell me about one specific example of when you used your leadership abilities.”

    You can encourage them to provide an answer by saying “This doesn’t have to be about work, it could be from a family situation, something from your community life, or something from school.”

    I think it is very effective.


  • We had a Lucy. Her name was Lucifer before I met her but bible belt made us call her Lucy at the vet. Solid black, fat. She went from being a very mean cat to friendlyish. Once she got some roommates she hated she calmed. Then she was one of the biggest love babies ever. She lost weight as she aged but would start purring if you looked at her the last few years. Made it to age 18.
