Easy implies “no-brainer” and that’s not always the case. Especially when it comes to describing technology. That’s why – when it comes to technology – I like to think of things as being intuitive (versus easy).

I have a friend who tells me all the time he doesn’t need sleep. He is military special forces, and insists, based on years of long experience, that if you take a nap and simply adopt the right sleeping position and wake up at the right point in the sleep cycle, you can fool your body into thinking it’s had a full night

I worked in the HR trenches for most of my career and at every job, the trusty EAP brochure was not far from reach. The only trouble is, employees just don’t tend to use the EAP (Employee Assistance Program) benefits and resources as often as we would hope. Honestly, more employees would rather have a chat with someone in HR or a colleague and tell us their most personal troubles than to search online or through a brochure for something to help whatever ails them.
