Comment on: Topic 'The truth is?': ioned within those comments.. My comments had addressed the individual by name to whose post I had responded" Umm, no.. you specifically said, "Jerry, Et Al, who believe blah, blah blah." “Et al.’ is a scholarly abbreviation of the Latin phrase et alia, which means “and others.” It is commonly used when you don’t want to name all the people or things in a list, and works in roughly the same way as “etc.” so if you mention one fellows name, use the latin phrase meaning "and others", and then proceed to repeat my stated position in derisive terms, guess what? you're talking about me too...in a manner that I found offensive. And now in THIS thread, my same thought process is ok with you..I swear, participating in threads with you is like being in a washing machine, first it's this way, then it's that way, round and round we go. Oh, by the way - "the world is evil, not because bad people do bad things, but because good people do nothing to stop it." -- I believe Albert Einstein said it first" Actually, it was Edmund Burke who said it.

Comment on: Blog Post 'The Millennial Recruiter Is Going To Kick Your Ass': g as you are hitting your numbers. And I agree with Theresa that there are pros and cons to virtual work places. After breakfast and a quick shower, I was "at work" and because there was no long commute I was spending more hours actually working which led to increased productivity. I'm pretty focused whether at home or in the office so distractions weren't a big problem for me. But I also appreciated the flexibility to put a load of laundry in the washing machine between calls. (Although the close proximity to the kitchen wasn't necessarily a good thing!) And, I too am paid based 100% on commission which is a great motivator. But when the doctor finally gave the go ahead to put weight on my ankle, I was thrilled to get back into the office. I missed the day-to-day interaction with my colleagues and I missed having someone to brain storm with when I needed to be a creative problem solver. That said, the renewed commute got old very quickly and I don't welcome the wear on my car or the added expense. It seems to me the ideal situation would be to work from home a couple or three days a week and be in the office the rest of the time. But I think that's true only for an experienced recruiter. With all the moving parts and variables, there are just too many challenges that come up with both candidates and clients that a new recruiter would need guidance with. Even though metrics provide the ability to diagnose where a recruiter needs to improve, I don't see how a virtual office would be an arrangement that leads to success for most newbies whether they're Millennials or not.…; Added by Shirley Ray at 10:14am on January 17, 2013

State with the highest percentage of people who walk to work: Alaska Percentage of Africa that is wilderness: 28% Percentage of North America that is wilderness: 38% Average number of days a West German goes without washing his underwear: 7 (I wonder how they discovered THIS?

The world's youngest parents were 8 and 9 and lived in China in 1910. The youngest pope was 11 years old. Iceland consumes more Coca-Cola per capita than any other nation. First novel ever written on a typewriter: Tom Sawyer. A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no one knows why. In the 1940s, the FCC assigned television's Channel 1 to mobile services (two-way radios in taxicabs, for instance) but did not re-number the other channel assignments. That is why your TV set has channels 2 and up, but no channel 1. The San Francisco Cable cars are the only mobile National Monuments. The only 15 letter word that can be spelled without repeating a letter is uncopyrightable. Did you know that there are coffee flavored PEZ? The reason firehouses have circular stairways is from the days of old when the engines were pulled by horses. The horses were stabled on the ground floor and figured out how to walk up straight staircases. The airplane Buddy Holly died in was the "American Pie." (Thus the name of the Don McLean song.) When opossums are playing 'possum, they are not "playing." They actually pass out from sheer terror. The Main Library at Indiana University sinks over an inch every year because when it was built, engineers failed to take into account the weight of all the books that would occupy the building. Each king in a deck of playing cards represents a great king from history. Spades - King David, Clubs - Alexander the Great, Hearts - Charlemagne, and Diamonds - Julius Caesar. 111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = 12,345,678,987,654,321 If a statue in the park of a person on a horse has both front legs in the air, the person died in battle; if the horse has one front leg in the air, the person died as a result of wounds received in battle; if the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of natural causes. Clans of long ago that wanted to get rid of their unwanted people without killing them would burn their houses down - hence the expression "to get fired." Only two people signed the Declaration of Independence on July 4th, John Hancock and Charles Thomson. Most of the rest signed on August 2nd, but the last signature wasn't added until 5 years later. "I am." is the shortest complete sentence in the English language. The term "the whole 9 yards" came from W.W.II fighter pilots in the South Pacific. When arming their airplanes on the ground, the .50 caliber machine gun ammo belts measured exactly 27 feet, before being loaded into the fuselage. If the pilots fired all their ammo at a target,it got "the whole 9 yards." Hershey's Kisses are called that because the machine that makes them looks like it's kissing the conveyor belt.
