NO Planes, Trains & Automobiles
As one of the newbies at the FIRM, I was keen to attend every social gathering going; even Friday night drinks with the old-timers.
One guy in particular, Big Fat Pauly, who was considered some sort of folk legend, couldn’t resist telling me about the shit he used to pull when he was my age. And as I stood there pretending to lap it all up, I remember thinking, Whatever old man, your tales wouldn’t even make the appendix if I ever chose to write a book.
It was getting close to midnight and I was getting impatient. So I chugged my beer, made my excuses and headed for the exit. But before the door closed, I could just make out the words, “same time next week then?”
Someone kill me now if all my Friday nights are going to be like this.
I’d have preferred not to catch…

17 things every girl needs to remember at all times
Because life isn’t always easy, most of the time it’ll make you want to smack yourself in the face, cry for no reason and eat potato-based products. But that’s a-ok.
Go on, remember these things and try not to have a breakdown today..
1. Nobody on their deathbed ever says that they wished that they had worked more. Any dying regrets will be that they loved harder, lived fuller and embarked on more adventures. Remember that when you’re beating yourself up about your career or lack of. Your work should always be to fund your lifestyle and happiness and not to be the epicentre of your universe. If you’re moping because your career plan just ain’t happening, get a grip. Go on holiday with friends or have a boozy barbecue with family. Don’t ever forget to think about and prioritise what makes you happy.

Come India, Let’s All Hate Arvind Kejriwal
Funny country, ours is. We love to hate. We are so fed up of our own miserable problems and pathetic administration that we just need a media-created effigy to direct our hatred and burn. Beyond logic. Beyond rationale. Beyond the levels of tolerance and sophistication that one can expect from a country that boasts itself as the world’s largest democracy.
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Arvind Kejriwal humbled in the recent national elections. Just four members from his party got into parliament and Kejriwal himself lost by a mammoth 337,000 votes at Varanasi to the next PM of India, Narendra Modi. Honestly speaking, it was a stupid move by AK to challenge Modi at Varanasi. He could’ve contested from his home constituency, won his seat in parliament and actually made a difference from inside over the next 5 years. Isn’t that why he split from Anna Hazare in the first place??
The hate…

An Open Letter to Frances Abbott
Dear Frances,
First off, I want to say that I feel really sorry for you this week since the news broke about your $60,000 scholarship to study at Whitehouse Institute of Design. As your passion was to study design, you should be commended for following this passion, and for applying yourself to your studies and graduating with Distinctions. Well done. No one is suggesting that you didn’t deserve to graduate with high grades, and no one is suggesting that it was unfair for you to be accepted into the course in the first place. But what people are upset about, including me, just so we’re clear, is the speculation that you got this opportunity to study without paying for it through your dad’s job and his connections. If this is true, we’re upset with your father. And I should imagine that you would be really be upset with him as…

Choosing The Right Group Health Insurance
Irrespective of whether you are just planning to open a new company or are running an established company for a while now, you will eventually have to have a conversation regarding group health insurance for your employees and you can rely on Taylor benefits group health insurance to answer all your questions. I will try and answer some of the more obvious questions like the eligibility requirements for group health insurance in this article.
There are quite a few benefits of group health insurance both from the point of view of the employees as well as the employer. One of the biggest advantages for employers is that they will be able to retain a larger portion of their employees for a longer period of time. This will ensure they don’t let go of any amazing talents just because they aren’t providing them enough perks. It will also allow your employees to receive the necessary medical attention as soon as it is need which will ensure that their work is rarely disturbed for long periods due to any ailments. When a person goes for an individual health insurance, he will have a huge monthly premium to pay as well. This increases their stress and when they are stressed they will obviously not be able to perform at optimum levels. There are also quite a few people who may not be able to qualify for any type of health insurance because of various pre-existing conditions and for these individuals, employers are the only ones who will be able to help them get health insurance. In all of these cases, employees as well as employers will benefit. What’s more, group health insurance shows that you care about your employees as well.
If you are employing less than 50 people, you should go for small group health insurance. You’ll need to fill in an application with all the details of your company as well as your employees. You will also need to submit some basic medical information on each of your employees.
The things which you need to focus on when it comes to choosing a group insurance policy are basically the benefits, the price and the provider. Each of these things are just as important and if you leave any of them out for any reason whatsoever, you will eventually regret doing so. I would recommend that you don’t think of these things as three things to keep in mind, but instead, think of them as one thing each which you absolutely need to remember.
