Seth Godin wrote an article giving tips on how to send a personal e-mail. It’s especially useful for those who bombard the potential employers with their CVs sending e-mails to one hundred and twenty five other people in the same To list.

Abu Dhabi - Dublin

Written by Roman on November 6, 2008 – 9:58 pm

Recently we visited my sister who lives in Dublin with her husband. One day on a car parking I saw a lady coming out from BMW Z3 who were dressed in a cloth very similar to Abaya.

Passing near her car, I thought I got a kind of déjà vu – the car had Abu Dhabi registration plate. And it had a right-hand steering wheel – the way it should be if you drive a car in Ireland.

How the car with right-hand steering wheel could get Abu Dhabi registration plate in Ireland?

Shopping

Written by Roman on October 1, 2008 – 9:14 am

We made an experiment yesterday – my wife went for the whole day shopping (with a limit set on a shopping budget, of course ;-) ) My responsibility was to take care about our child, keeping smile on my face and the main thing – never say something like “let’s stop shopping and go home”.

Gentlemen, I can assure you that 16-hours working day is much easy to stand than 8-hours shopping.

My wife was also very tired from it. She said that full day shopping is not for her, and she would better buy stuff in passing. It is in fact very good news :-)

Generally speaking, I get a headache after thirty minutes in the shop, so if I need to buy something, I want to buy it quickly. Is it only my reactions, or all men are the same?
