How to Deal With Jerks at Work
 Every workplace has them ‘ass toxic’ people who make life miserable for their colleagues. Every single person’s experiencing it all over the world. Here’s how to handle them. This one’s a good read; it may take time, though! “You didn’t reach secondary-school level!” the supervisor at the Manila manufacturing company yelled. Camelia Santos* was intimidated by her supervisor’s anger. Even more serious was that without her help, she couldn’t get her job done. The supervisor gave Santos instructions for labelling products, but sometimes they weren’t clear. When she asked for clarification, the supervisor would ignore her. If Santos ended up making mistakes, through no fault of her own, the supervisor would...
How to Curb Your Overspending
 I have this attitude that when I’m angry or stressed with work, I indulge myself with shopping (as long as the blanket’s not getting short). That’s my way of relieving all the burdens I’m feeling inside. But sometimes, it’s also not a good idea ‘coz when I’m out shopping —I’m an impulse buyer! I hate discussing prices and bargaining with vendors, the tendency is that when the price is ok with me and I really like the stuff then I’ll buy it right away. This is the reason why my sister always say – ‘do not make Joyce angry! for she’ll waste money’. Well, she’s got a point there! And now, before it’s too late I’m trying my best to compensate every penny that I...

Next time you have an argument with your partner and you can’t reach an easy conclusion, agree to disagree and move on. Apparently you’ll have a better chance of staying together in the long term.

Popcorn: The Best Snack?
 Who among us don’t like popcorn? Young & old people enjoy watching movies with a bucket of popcorn plus fueled by some cans of soda…hmmm, yummy! Especially, if it’s cheese flavored popcorn! But do you know much about popcorn? Well, here are some things about your fave snack: Popcorn is crunchy, tasty and has fewer kilojoules than other snacks (about 0.37 kilojoules for three cups). It has fibre and virtually no fat when you pop it in a hot-air popper. But movie popcorn is a different story! It may be popped in palm or coconut oil (both saturated fats), and the average small bag has 1.67 kilojoules, with 27 grams of fat. Added butter almost doubles the fat and adds another 1.04 kilojoules. Microwave popcorn isn’t much better. Even...
