One of my early jobs (as I was teaching myself to program) was at a large consulting firm. The job didn't require any sort of programming. Many of the business processes at the company revolved around manual processes and data-entry&#x

But do you think you did so well early in the term as a result of the deadlines? Perhaps it had no impact, but I'd argue that a lot of people need that requirement to stay on track.

As someone who has chronic back problems, I cannot agree with this more. I've wanted to start a company for some time, but my increased risk for significant medical care/procedures has somewhat anchored me to working for others.

Baseball is easier to predict from statistics when compared to most other sports. Most plays in baseball occur in isolation (relatively). For example: pitcher vs. batter -- each pitch is essentially a new, repeatable experiment. In basketba

That IS the problem. They can't do the business side, but they SHOULD be able to do the business side. Government contracts favor large mega-corps rather than small, efficient businesses because of the enormous amount of regulations involve

This resonates with me. Like you, I'm risk-averse but I still have hopes to create my own company one day. It'll start as a side project and then if I get enough traction, perhaps it'll be enough to convince me to take the leap.

Yes, you can boulder by yourself (I find bouldering more fun anyways). Most gyms have sign up sheets to connect solo climbers with others. Even better, when you sign up at a gym you'll probably receive guest passes, take a friend some time

For those who are interested in exercise but haven't enjoyed it in the past (running, swimming, lifting weights can be boring), I'd recommend rock-climbing. Four months ago I joined a rock-climbing gym and I've really enjoyed it. Its a good

No, this is not just furniture. It is everything in Storage & Organization categories from Target and Amazon. I'm not sure whether the art supply box fits that category, but I'd hope so. I do not have the dimensions for all products as
