Halloween finally arrived. The day of glorious weirdness I’ve been waiting for all month. And naturally, I woke up at 4:14 a.m. because my body apparently wanted to pregame the day with exhaustion. Who needs sleep when there’s candy corn to contemplate and costumes to coordinate? By the […]
Sometimes you read a headline that makes you double-take, rub your eyes, and mutter, “No, surely this must be from The Onion.” But no. Real life, yet again, outdoes satire. A neurosurgeon. Yes, a brain surgeon has been arrested for what officials described as “an incredible lack of […]
Imagine walking into your boss’s office in the U.S. and announcing: “Yeah, I’m just not feeling it this week. I’ll see you in ten business days.” In most workplaces, HR would descend like a pack of caffeinated hawks, fluttering policies, paperwork, and possibly pink slips in your direction. […]
The other night I was scrolling through my Apple TV streaming options, half-looking for a new series, half-procrastinating on actual work, when I landed on Platonic. Cute, funny show.

Is it just me, or is this year sprinting like it’s late for its own meeting? Every time I blink, it’s Monday again. Monday is showing up at the front door like an over-caffeinated guest who doesn’t knock—just barges in, rearranges your to-do list, and reminds you of […]
Remember when Friday used to be the pinnacle of the week? That sweet, sweet moment when the bell rang, the whistle blew, and everyone hit the streets like a 1980s power anthem—everybody’s working for the weekend! What happened to those carefree days when the hardest decision was what […]
Ah, Halloween—a holiday where quirkiness is currency, and you’re encouraged to be both bold and bizarre. So, naturally, I suited up for work today as a “good witch,” complete with a purple costume and a grin as wide as a jack-o’-lantern’s. If you haven’t done a Zoom call […]
What could you try for the first time? I recently stumbled upon this little gem called the “three-minute rule,” and I thought, “Why not give it a try?” With my chaotic work-life—hundreds of employees, endless emails, and let’s not forget the home front, featuring my three wonderfully nutty […]
