Yes - CS Lewis pointed out the value of going to church in your local parish rather than shopping around for a church that suits you. Instead of having your beliefs reinforced by people who are like you, they are influenced by the people wh

- Working in a car lot: when you dent the fender of the $200,000 Mercedes, go tell the boss instantly. That's the only way you're going to keep your job. - Working in a print shop: set up a system to check your work, double check,

Banning stuff is rarely my preferred solution. My take on producer responsibility is that producers should be prepared to take their stuff BACK - meaning, if someone turns up at their headquarters (or some more reasonable location) with a d

Yes yes yes. Saved for copying and pasting, and I'd like to subscribe to your newsletter. I've been studying plastic waste for years as a member of the Surfrider Foundation, and right now I'm in a BBA program called Business

It sounds like you're being facetious, but plenty of employers will pay for you to do community service. For example, HeroWork is an organization similar to Habitats for Humanity, which does construction work for charities. Trade firms

I don't know a ton about the CDS, but at least one of their employees is a former coworker of mine from the VIP team at Automattic. He was team leader for a group that had EXTREMELY high customer satisfaction goals as its mandate. I se

In this case, the difference is that I already have buy-in for the people receiving these emails (volunteers who have worked for me before). If it was a cold email, it would be a softer lead for sure.

This is a lesson I learned while writing call-to-action emails. I'd start with a draft that was like, "Due to xxx situation, we have political momentum this week and want to take advantage of it by canvassing even harder than usua

I don't know that they're doing this to create content - it seems more like they're creating content out of what they're doing in an effort to fund what they want to do anyway, and maybe get some social status as well, s

For me it was mostly a matter of managing my anxiety, once I had a better handle on it I had way more bandwidth for being social and was able to enjoy it and be energized by it.

I'm not even going to read the comments. These pockets meet my needs. Where can I buy the pants?

I used to have that faith too, but the stories that have been coming out recently have made me doubt almost all reports provided by police and coroners, even with cameras in place. What motivation do they have to provide accurate informatio

How confident are you that your numbers are accurate, given that police self-report their numbers? For instance, I've been reading lately that black men have been found hanging from trees by nooses in California recently, and that the

There's no need to beat yourself up about it, or even call it "regression". You had capacity to make progress for a while, and you did. Then stuff happened, and you no longer had extra capacity. But you used the time wisely,

In my experience, they'll have a database that they administrate through excel, then output it as CSV for whatever tool that needs to process it.

Government is made up of people. "More" government isn't a meaningful term. The difference is who is in that government, how they are educated, what their values are, and how much trust they have in each other.

Just to check, are you looking for the Amazon logo on the delivery vans? Because I've seen tons of deliveries for various services arrive in plain white Sprinters. You don't know whose van it is unless you can see the logo on the

I'm in BC, not Ontario, but no-fault eviction isn't a thing here. You can evict a tenant for reasons such as: - didn't pay rent - late paying rent at least three times - your family is planning to occupy the unit - unit is un

According to Strong Towns, it's because the building can borrow money based on the projected value of rent. If they lower the rent, they can't borrow as much money. https://www.strongtowns.org/journal/2017&#x2

You don't have to stick to the S&P index. There are others that follow tech, or commodities, or the Canadian stock market, green energy or what have you. You can diversify yourself.
