When Doyle's A Study in Scarlet was first published, 221B Baker Street did not exist because Baker Street only had addresses up to the 100s, but the streets were since renumbered and 221B was added in to the fray.

To always look at the labels on food. Defrosted something last night for dinner tonight that was meant to be cooked from frozen. Simple mistake, but my toilet probably won't enjoy it.

Before you pet a cat, make sure you don't have peanut butter or honey on your hands.

I was watching my favorite movie, Anchorman, for about the millionth time. Noticed someone really familiar on the screen… Seth freakin’ Rogen. I’m like, how have I never noticed him in there before!?
That’s what I learned.

I also like to learn something new. This is very interesting for me. I traveled a lot and went to work while was in college. In my opinion, we will not need most of the information provided to us in college. I found and then often turned there for help and spent all my free time at work or volunteering. Today I applied for a new job that is not related to the previous ones and I think I will learn a lot there |

Apparently, in 2015, the #0 as a jersey number reached the peak of its popularity among college basketball players.

Everyone's fighting their own battle, you just need to be there to help them.

I learnt how to use slack messenger for the first time. Some of our times work with different channels for a long time already but I never had anything to do with it. Today I checked how to send sms from slack and inform a big group of customers about the event we are planning in couple of weeks. As I understand that is a modern replacement of all the mail list and paper invitations. |

Helen McCroy, who played Narcissa Malfoy (Draco's mother) in the Harry Potter movies, passed away a little over a year ago due to breast cancer.
Such a shame. She was an amazing actress & a very beautiful woman.

I didn't learn anything interesting today except new life hacks at work (for example, how to quickly find the documents I need)

A double whammy.
70's pop star Rick Springfield is Australian. I never knew that.
Plus, he's an avid Star Wars figure collector.

I often turn to www.topessaywriting.org/samples/religion for help or examples to spend more time at work. I was lucky with my work because I work in an office and it's a shame for a student in my opinion. Soon I will graduate from university and be able to work full time and it's so great |

That if I had a dollar for every time I say "Please put your phone away" or "You can't vape in the warehouse" to the new hires at work, I could retire in a month.

How the hell does someone have time to look at their phone? If the unloaders are doing their job then the sorters and the outbound areas should have constant flows that they wouldn’t have time to look at a phones without getting blown out. Unless the hubs have been refitted with some sort of new technology over the last 25 years that makes the job much easier. |

The ones in small sort end up letting bags of packages & coffee pods go down the belt. The ones loading let their packages collect at the bottom of the belt. There is no common sense or discipline at the Mount Olive hub. |

If my Papa's making a cuppa you will have to hang about the kettle and make your own when he's done because he never offers to make you one.
