Made the change and will send out a flyer by the end of the day. In case of a dispute, from now on you have to use informal negotiation via email or through arbitration. I can barely manage to get my bank balance by email let alone try to negotiate, and although arbitration may be an efficient way to settle disputes, how do I know the arbitrator will not favor powerful, wealthy General Mills? That’s a worrisome trend, to put it mildly. What if General Motors put in place a similar rule? Some drugs are so...

Pearce Plus Relocation: A Long Winter

http://pearceplusreloc.blogspot.com/2011/02/long-winter.html

Saturday, February 12, 2011. The same is true of our economic state. It has felt long and protracted. At first, companies held back on relocations (imposing hiring freezes and lay offs). When transferees. From all that I read and all that I am seeing on the ground, there just may be some blue skies on the horizon. We may not emerge the same as we were before this economic meltdown, but we all will emerge stronger and wiser for it. .And that's a good thing. I'm reading: A Long Winter. Blogs I am following.

Pearce Plus Relocation: January 2011

http://pearceplusreloc.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html

Sunday, January 9, 2011. It's a new year and I spent the day preparing for another planning session with my team. New Year's Resolutions aside, January is a time to reflect on the year gone by and to set our sights on new horizons. How can we better serve our clients? Grow our business without compromise? What have we learned from the mistakes we've made; the problems we've solved; the most difficult situations that we've faced in the past year? Where have we made a difference? I'm reading: A New Year!

My Thanksgiving trip to Charleston, S.C., almost didn’t happen. Friends were to drive me to Union Station (the new departure point for the Connecticut Limo) which I was taking to go to Bradley Airport. Due to a misunderstanding, they never came to pick me up. Even though in recent years I’ve simplified my Christmas giving, this year I find Christmas approaching at a pace I’m unable to match. At my present rate of speed, I might just be ready by Valentine’s Day. I don’t know of anyone who did that! I&#821...

Pearce Plus Senior Services: There is so much joy to be savored in the moment, so slow down

http://pearceplusseniors.blogspot.com/2014/03/there-is-so-much-joy-to-be-savored-in.html

There is so much joy to be savored in the moment, so slow down. During a recent effort to get rid of some of the ever-increasing volume of accumulated paperwork, I came across the outline for a seminar I had given some years ago on time management. In re-reading the outline, it was obvious that the intent is to make the entire day as productive as possible. Every hour was broken down into segments in which you had to complete a specific task. When our children get upset, we call for a “timeout....Yale Ri...

Give Henry S. Miller’s ‘The Serious Pursuit of Happiness’ calendar a try. January: A Month of Hope and Plans —Write one small positive goal each morning of each day of January and a plan to make it a reality.

My Spring Fashion Review comes out a bit early this season. My hard-working editor (according to him), will be leaving on vacation and since staffing at the paper is somewhat reduced (did they all leave for Florida? He has asked me to write a few columns in advance to enable him to correct my spelling and punctuation and additionally catch any unintentional print “faux pas.”. Contact Jean Cherni, certified senior adviser for Senior Living Solutions and Pearce Plus, a helpful, full-service program for sen...

Pearce Plus Senior Services: New Haven Woman’s Club gathered one last time for lunch recently

http://pearceplusseniors.blogspot.com/2014/04/new-haven-womans-club-gathered-one-last.html

New Haven Woman’s Club gathered one last time for lunch recently. I was surprised and delighted by a recent invitation to join the New Haven Woman’s Club for lunch at the beautiful Sage American Grill in New Haven, but my pleasure turned to sadness when I learned that this group, in existence since 1913, which had accomplished so much over the years, was having its final get-together. A women’s reading club started in 1900 in Madison by Mary Eliza Scranton is now the Scranton Public Library. One lasting ...
