Manic Monday #205

>> 3/30/2010



How do you feel about couples that share an email address?

~ Well, if it's both agreed upon I don't see anything wrong. For DH and I, we both have separate accounts.

How open about your life are you in the various online arenas?

~ I get to share happy and sad moments of my life, random thoughts, view and personal opinions about certain things, I don't want to be negative as much as possible.

On average, how many hours a week do you spend online? Do you think it's too much?

~ It depends, since I am almost online 8 hrs.a day @ work and at least 3-4 hours after at home. Just do the math. Lol!

How did you decide to live where you do?

~ DH and I talked about it. Since we used to live apart, I think it is impossible to build a strong family foundation with the kind of set up and glad we did as we are now on the way on making thing get realized.

Do you like risks, or do you avoid them? What major risks have you taken in your life?

~I take risks if I feel it's beneficial at some point. The risk of blindly embracing to be with DH at the start of our relationship and not give up despite many major problems along the way. glad that everything now is smooth sailing. :)

If you had to choose, which could you live without: TV, the internet, a telephone or friends?

~The TV. Internet is amazing that I can watch movies and TV shows plus I can connect with friends with it! :)

Catching Up on Fave Celebs

Modernized Treatment for Eyesight

One of the many perks technology has to offer is the the breakthrough of modernized equipments in terms with the medical industry, thank goodness that during this time things can be done in very convenient ways, here goes the digital age as they say. Before at about ten year ago I think, a simple surgery would take about long hours of performance done in clinics and hospitals. Leaving a patient with worries and prayers that it would turn out to be a successful one. Nowadays, there are surgeries that won't require a patient to undergo a knife anymore, just a few hours and to some lucky ones, a few minutes is enough and off you go as if nothing terribly happened to you.

Just like undergoing in a Laser Eye Surgery Boston wherein it would only take a few minutes of your time and you don't need to be confined in the hospital anymore for recuperation. All that inconvenience of you wearing that eyeglasses for years will be erased at an instant with the breakthrough of iLasik for those have blurry vision and needs to be corrected and off you go with a 20/20 vision that you have long been dreaming to restore for years now.

Auto Allowance

>> 3/06/2010

Since some changes took place at the office last month, I have done updating all my lists of to do's at my workplace. I always try to keep myself busy as I am again starting to feel/ get bored with the monotony of work I do. Part of the changes that took place is our company incurring an Auto Allowance program for the mobile employees, like the ones being offered by CRS, which offers favorable results for the employers and employees too. We now have two motorized technicians that usually goes out everyday to do some errands like pull-out of defective unit for repair, doing the collections to our customers and picking up orders from the suppliers. One of them had already been given a motor vehicle as his service unit, the other one is as bout to be given to in a few weeks time.

having a mobile employee is one way for the company to have a fast pace turn around that gives a more better and fast results and positive customer satisfaction feedback. Things are now more easy to do and a better communication is build up as work itself is concerned. By giving the employees such allowance program, they are in return inspired to work as ease and comfort has taken on their work.

Debt Matters

>> 3/05/2010

One of the many important factor to consider when handling financial issues to always keep a good record track of your deal towards financial activities. Always bear in mind to keep yourself from making unnecessary expense that will in the end create a big problem on your part. Discipline and goal focus must be clearly set to attain that financial freedom you wanted to experience. Live within your means is somewhat a great and proven way to at least keep yourself off from dealing with a Collection Agency once you start to experience financial woes and can no longer deal with your potential business partners.

Many people has this negative connotation when dealing with debts, they tend to keep it off to themselves and won't seek professional help as they think it is very embarrassing situation. I guess, an important thing to do once you suffer from financial woes is to get to the root of the problem and resolve it by intelligently arriving at wise decision no mater what it takes and even seeking professional help like of those with the American Profit Recovery is a part of that wise decision as they provide you with the necessary solutions with debt problem, they are fully equipped with some necessary program that enhances how you could recover from bad debts.

Hoarse Voice

I remember I just did went out the office and the temperature is at the highest point. Later had I known that I no longer have voice coming out when I speak and open my mouth.


PREVENT AND TREAT HOARSENESS

  • If you smoke, quit
  • Avoid agents which dehydrate the body, such as alcohol and caffeine
  • Avoid secondhand smoke
  • Drink plenty of water
  • Humidify your home
  • Watch your diet - avoid spicy foods and alcohol
  • Try not to use your voice too long or too loudly
  • Seek professional voice training
  • Avoid speaking or singing when your voice is injured or hoarse (this is similar to not walking on a sprained ankle)
Hoarseness due to a cold or flu may be evaluated by family physicians, pediatricians and internists (who have learned how to examine the larynx). When hoarseness lasts longer than two weeks or has no obvious cause, it should be evaluated by an otolaryngologist-head and neck surgeon (ear, nose and throat doctor). Problems with the voice are best managed by a team of professionals who know and understand how the voice functions. These professionals are otolaryngology-head and neck surgeons, speech/ language pathologists, and teachers of singing, acting, or public speaking. Voice disorders have many different characteristics which may give professionals a clue to the cause.

Just like in any relationship, you need to think intelligently and be practical, find ways and means on how to be able to arrive at a more organized way of relocating from one place to another for that very much needed move. You need to hire the services of a well reliable and credible Boston Moving Company, that will help and keep your move as fast and as conveniently as you wished for.

On Actions

It’s the action, not the fruit of the action, that’s important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that there’ll be any fruit. But that doesn’t mean you stop doing the right thing.
You may never know what results come from you action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.

Collecting Debts

>> 3/03/2010

Last year was not a good year for many businesses, not just here in our country but all over the world as global financial crisis has taken its toll and a lot of companies got affected. Even the ones that we all thought are secured enough were not spared, the closure of multinational companies resulted to a massive lose of jobs in the industry. Of course one problem that many business will face is dealing with Collection Agencies as financial aspect of the company will be the first to suffer here. But there are some agencies like the APR who provides a well planned and just solutions for their needs. They offer early intervention, Flat-Fee Tier 1 Receivables Solution, customer driven technology that is 24/7 accessible, dedication and professionalism of their people and their commitment to customer service. They will help you work things out in resolving your accounts receivables and not just collect. In return, your company can slowly catch up on losses. Dealing with such agencies often connotes a negative impression, but if you'll look deeper and would pay enough importance on how things work, you would know that there is nothing to loose but in return gave a favorable results to all your company debt problems.

Tips On Moving

A careful study and planning helps a lot when you decide to move out and transfer to another place or location. An impulsive decision will only create confusion and will probably make you more stressed out.

  • Firs thing to consider is to know and make a physical visit to the place where you will transfer. To at least get a feel of how things go around the area.
  • Second, survey and talk to people around the place to get a first hand opinion of their experiences with the place. know if it floods in the area during rainy season and check out the convenience of it from transportation purposes.
  • Third, check out if the place had passed the standards when it comes to safety and ensure that the building has the necessary license to operate on your municipality. So it goes with the fire exits and other emergency requisites.

  • Fourth, is all about you doing the sorting out and packing of the necessary things. Organizing and labeling helps in fast moving experience, box system helps a lot.

  • Fifth, hire a credible Moving Company like the services of Humboldt moving company, who has been in this type of business for quite sometime and offering quality services as they will be the one to take care of your valuables during the transfer. Keeping your valuables intact is a must especially for your appliances and furniture.

Have a happy and stress free move!

May God keep us always safe and away from harm in the coming days...
