We are all victim to the convenience of fast food. Much of what we consume from these places are high in fat and sugars which become addictive and when we become accustom to the style of eating this way, it becomes more of what we want. Many children are growing up into this way of life and developing health problems at an early age such as high blood pressure, or diabetes. An easy way to avoid eating things that aren't anywhere near good for you, you can instead buy groceries and have them ready the next morning to throw in a lunch box with an ice pack and head out the door. Convenience in your own home is just as satisfying as when you have to go up those 3 flights of stairs at 7:00 in the morning, remember, those stairs are much easier to climb when you don't have a Egg McMuffin on your stomach.

Imagine that one day someone in your organization walks in with a copy of your chief competitor's 

bid on a big contract. He swears he got it legally, but you aren't sure. And whether he did or didn't, 

it's still proprietary information. Are you going to use it in developing your bid?
