Reader Offers Additional Suggestions For Vacationers
BarterNews
wishes to thank John Alden of Micron Air Purification for offering
additional tips to our article "Keep Crooks Away While You're Away,"
printed in last week's Tuesday Report (4/26/2016). Mr. Alden
says his firm has been trading since 1982, and presently does so
with IMS & BBU. The following are his suggestions: ♦ At your
post office, fill out the form to hold your mail until you return.
They will not deliver until you pick up your held mail, and request
that they resume delivery. ♦ Call UPS & FedEx to hold any
packages sent to you. Verify the time you called and person you
spoke to. You may want to double check later on. ♦ Ask a
trusted neighbor to remove advertising papers or phone books.
♦ Place indoor lights on random (digital) timers, and
outdoor lights on on a schedule that resembles your regular
use. ♦ A handy item is "Fake TV" which gives appearance of
real TV. (Amazon sells it.)
♦ Leave talk radio on a
timer to give the appearance that someone is at home.
♦ Video/audio doorbells let you see on your Smartphone as well as
talk to whomever is at your door. (It's very convincing and has been
featured on the nightly news recently.)
♦ Keep up with lawn,
snow or ice maintenance; especially if you have a sidewalk people
use daily.
Is Boredom Cramping Your Style?
People who are
chronically bored are missing out on a lot of opportunities. Can you
improve your job or job performance? Is it time to consider a
different job? Or do you need to concentrate more on how your job
affects others and less on the paycheck? When you can't
change your job to eliminate the boredom, you have to change your
state of mind. Give your brain some new challenges, even if they
aren't work-related. Changing the way you spend some of the
time can cause a domino effect on the rest of your time. Try these
pointers:
-
Do
something that will make you smile. Go to a movie, a
sports event, out with friends or to the mall. Buy yourself a
little gift or a surprise for someone else.
-
Read
something unique. Pick a book by an author you've never
read, or an article that will stimulate your imagination.
-
Get
some exercise. Physical activity will get your blood
pumping and stimulate endorphin production, making you feel
energetic and happier.
-
Take
a break or even a little snooze. This may be difficult
for some, but closing your eyes and drifting off for just five
to ten minutes will leave you feeling refreshed.
-
Explore
your surroundings. Don't ignore the sights on your way
to work, or even at work. Pay attention to all you see. Not only
looking for something different and original, but also admiring
the beauty you haven't noticed before.
-
Rearrange
your space. Sometimes shifting things around at home or
at work can force you to look at your surroundings, and your
life, in a new light.
-
Volunteer.
Helping others is a terrific antidote to the boredom blahs.
Doing good things makes you feel good.
-
Change your routine. Take a different route to work.
Start the day with something new, instead of the usual "to do"
list. Shake up your day, and interesting things may come your
way.

Recruitment Wisdom
Somebody once said that in looking for people to hire, you look
for three qualities: integrity, intelligence, and energy. And if
they don’t have the first, the other two will kill you. Think about
it, it’s true. If you hire somebody without the first, you really
want your employees to be dumb and lazy.
—Warren Buffet
