Very loose job description = pyramid scheme

#Marketing job hunting, ended up finding door knocking #pyramidscheme sales instead

As many of you know I am currently job hunting for a marketing related position. And to my delight I was given an opportunity for a first-round interview for a marketing company just days after I applied. However, the job title and description were extremely broad and I wasn’t entirely sure what this company did, or what I actually applied for; simply stated “sports minded applicants apply” for a…

Unlimited Vacation - Pros and Cons

Unlimited Vacation – Pros and Cons

Firstly, unlimited vacation is not a utility allowing employees to take as much time off as they like, nor is it the ability to take an extended period of time off leaving their employers lurched in the dark. Yes, the term ‘unlimited’ should mean without constraint, but it never truly does.

If anything the term unlimited vacation means an employee can take as much time off throughout the year as…

Trust Within a Business

Trust. It’s more important than you think.

Trust is an invaluable term thrown around rather carelessly these days, and in light of the government’s recent decision to implement a public register for financial planners ripping people off, as a result of their lack of knowledge in the industry, trust can no longer be taken for granted.

Family Guy: The Quest For Stuff

Don’t get me wrong Family Guy is a terrific TV show riddled with sexual innuendo, crude humour and making celebrities look like utter trash, in a good way.

I commend my sister’s bravery writing this post, something I am still unable to do without feeling sad just thinking about my best friend. He will always remain in our hearts forever and I hope this story touches you the same way Sam touched all those who were lucky to have met him.

The Rant

A rant is a beautiful thing and can come from almost anywhere. It can be the most intricate musings from a disgruntled sports fan screaming “How is that not a penalty!?” or “Good call ump….” to the disgust at the latest legislations affecting everyday life or new and exciting products missing their mark. However, a rant can also go unheard, lost in translation and riddled with aggression.
