Tip of the Day

Don’t wait to update your resume until you’re on the hunt for a new job. Update yearly or after any major change at work, so your resume reflects your current skills clearly.

 

Happy Wednesday! As is tradition, a camel fact to help you get through Hump Day. Camels don’t actively spit, like llamas, but when irritated they will huff and puff forcefully enough to give you a little incidental spray—something to keep in mind next time you’re at the petting zoo, I suppose.

On a holiday-related note, gift returns are at record highs this year so if you’re not feeling a gift you got and want to return it, you’re in good company. Here’s how long you have to return gifts to major retailers and here’s everything you need to know about returning an Amazon gift.

Christmas isn’t the only holiday around this time of year through and New Year’s is right on the horizon. If you’re looking for a New Year fresh start, here are some items you should ditch to start fresh… and we have a few handy tips to help you trick yourself into a healthier New Year.

And water cooler trivia? You know Wednesday is a double-dipping-trivia kind of day: first camel fact then the regular ol’ trivia. If you’ve ever heard the odd historical phrase “Who will rid me of this turbulent priest?” and wondered what the deal with it was, well today’s the day to mention it. On this day in 1170, the knights of King Henry II of England acted on that mob-boss-like line of inquiry and went to Canterbury to murder Archbishop Thomas Becket.
