The Blog
is late – I know. This bothers me more than you know; crawling under my skin constantly
reminding me that I haven’t completed this task yet. Let me share this and
maybe you will understand my physical discomfort! My dad & both my
grandfathers were in the service – it has been ingrained in me that if I am not
10 minutes early I’m 5 minutes late. So the fact that this blog is 2 days late
is killing me. I had to take a deep breath and accept the fact that it would be
late because once I prioritize my responsibilities – this did not come first.

Advice for New Grads: Be Flexible and Mind Your Manners
As
more colleges take steps to improve career education for their students, we
wanted to find out what kinds of skills employers expect from college
graduates. We asked current and former chief learning officers, who have led
training efforts in the corporate and nonprofit worlds, the following question:
"If you could persuade colleges to do one more thing to prepare students
for the workplace, what would it be?"
Here’s
what they told us.
Random
In 1992
thousands of plastic yellow ducks broke free from a cargo ship in the Pacific.
They floated halfway around the work for years and were used to study ocean
currents.
