Just A Thought

I had a conversation at lunch today about success.  A friend and I were discussing what it means to be successful, pointing out what is truly success and what is merely perceived as success.  There are the relative parameters such as social status, possessions, and community opinion; and then there are deeper definitions like happiness, contentment, and the ability to help others.

Already Winners

Win or lose, I’m a proud fan of the Cincinnati Reds.  It all started when I was eight years old, and my Dad took me to Riverfront Stadium for my first Major League Baseball game.  It was the last regular season game of 1975.  The Reds had already secured the NL East pennant, so it hardly mattered that they lost this one to the Atlanta Braves.  Except to an eight year old kid at his first game…but it’s OK: aside from a small cadre of Red Sox fans who remain in denial about

But EXAIR knows it is a resource, a utility that you must pay for to produce and saving compressed air is an important piece of keeping your whole production line efficient.

A Little Courtesy Goes a Long Way

Do you believe that the person you’re on the phone with can hear you smile?  I thought that was about the nuttiest thing I’d ever heard when Jimmy Lee instructed us to smile whenever we picked up the phone, even if it was to change our voice mail greeting.  Which, by the way, we were instructed to update daily.  Well, like anything else I don’t really want to believe, I started looking for ways to disprove it.  Funny thing was, I discovered that I could indeed tell if people on the phone were smiling or not.  Facial muscular contractions add a recognizable inflection to your speech.  Also,

Effective ESD Management

Have you ever walked across the room to pet your dog, but got a shock instead? Perhaps you took your hat off on a dry winter’s day and had a “hair-raising” experience!  Or, maybe you have made a balloon stick on the wall after rubbing it against your clothes?
