Goodbye Sweet Betty
As If 2021 Didn't Suck Enough For a few hundred reasons, 2021 was completely and utterly horrible. There were the ravages of the pandemic. We all felt gas prices going through the roof, with California seeing a new record high for the country. Inflation hit all of our pockets with higher grocery prices, higher consumer prices, and wages not keeping up. We've lost friends, relatives, and seen our country divided.

Learning About Our Local Sikhs During The Holidays
As the world changes and we start to resemble more of a global community, there is little excuse not to learn about the neighbors and fellow community members that come from other lands. If you politely show an interest in them, politely ask questions, and be respectful, the rest is just an internet search and some reading away.

After Two Years In Pandemic Land Here's A Roadmap For A Happy, Safe, And More Prosperous Year In 2022. Redesign, Rebuild And Reclaim It For YourSelf
It's almost New Years again and we are, a lot of us anyway, looking to the future and what we can do better than we did this year. I'll grant you all that the world has thrown us a lot of curveballs. It seems like we've been hit with a continuous round of curveballs. From the Covid-19 virus to the rise in inflation, to the messy politics we're forced to endure, to the crazy rise in crime the news shows us, all the way to empty shelves in the world's "greatest" country. How can the world improve? I don't know… But I can say that people can make their lives better if they want to in 2022.

The "I Quit" Factor. What Do Nike, Facebook, John Deere, Walmart, Lowes, General Motors, Disney, American Airlines, And Others Need To Change For A Successful Workforce To Lead Them Into The Future?
Why People Really Leave Their Jobs The employment market has changed drastically in just a short, but tumultuous two years. For it to change for the better, the problems that have existed in the market for years, need to be looked at in the new and much more fluid world. That examination should start from the top of the organization or business, and go down through the ranks. It may even be time to consider that living in a purely capitalist society, with little opportunity for employees to fully enjoy the spoils of their labor, has run its' course and a paradigm shift is needed. Profit is great, but profit and success depend more on the achievements of the first line in your organization. If your first line is always leaving, spends little time with you after they're trained, and you are always in need of star players, then look within yourselves, managers. The problem may have more to do with you than you realize.
