  • What are your best tips to quit smoking? ?

    I’ve been smoking heavily for about 30 years. Quit date is set for June 1 2020 no matter what. Cold turkey. In the meantime, I’m charting what time I’m smoking and how many I’ve smoked so far     

    I’m down about 40%, it’s a start. 

    Having the most trouble first thing in the morning until about noon. Open to suggestions.

Initially, I called the business RELIEF Staffing and Consulting Services...but now that push comes to shove and I need to make decisions (i.e.. web site etc...) I'm re-thinking the name.

  • How to deal with a verbally abusive neighbour....?

    I have a neighbour in her 70's....she convinced herself last year at some point that I had an affair with her husband. We are a close knit neighbourhood...everyone knows everyone.....she takes every opportunity to call me names (bit%h etc).

    I've ignored her because she is not 100% mentally...but now it's getting out of hand and she's acting this way in front of my children who are 5 and 10 and disturbed about the whole thing.

    I don't know if she's doing it for attention....I'm at a loss....

    Even though I know she's not mentaly stable....It still hurts everytime she acts this way.

    Does anyone have any ideas....tonight we are all planning to get together to do fire works and I'm afraid she's going to make yet another scene....I'm tired of being the bigger person and walking away....I think she continues to act like that b/c she knows she can...and no one ever says anything to her out of respect for her husband who is a friendly italian guy that knows and helps all the neighbours (cuts their grass or supervises the kids at the bus stop....a real nice man that everyone loves and respects).

    Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated!!

  • Video Resume Question?

    I went to a staffing agency that hires daycare staff (they don't charge anything to applicants...they charge the daycare centre).

    They offer free video resumes....they tape a 5 minute clip of our interview then edit it and send it to Centres.....they had me sign a release form saying that the video will only be used for employment purposes and that the video becomes their property....is this normal/typical??

    I think it's a great idea....what do other people think of video resumes?

  • What is your interpretation of this poem?

    If someone you knew that was depressed sent you this poem...what would you think?

    Life's Anger

    Look around you

    People can be so cruel

    No room for compassion

    Selfishess is key for survival

    Not knowing right from wrong

    Why are we all different

    Sacrifices are ignored

    Humanity will not go on

    Love is a word with no meaning

    Life is beautiful

    Living is hell

    Wish I were somewhere else

    Alone where time stands still

    Free and wild

    **Not sure what to think???
