Meet Neil Godfrey, United Airlines apparently doesn’t like his choice of reading material.
Mark Gallagher’s Tips to Success at Work – I’m not really sure how I ended up at this page – but most of his 10 tips make a lot of sense. I think my title is a little more descriptive of what he is really suggesting…
I was in Crystal City today for a client meeting. Crystal City is a collection of office buildings just east of the Pentagon. As I pulled into an underbuilding parking garage, I was greeted with a military checkpoint. They allowed me to pass so I guess I am no threat! When I came up the [...]
