Yesterday, I was waiting in line to get this year’s flu shot at my work. Two women ahead in the line were loudly expressing their personal opinions about other people they knew, what movies and movie stars they liked etc. It was quite annoying. Afterward many others...

Empathy!

On 03 November 2018 I was coming to USA from Bangladesh and I got sick in the plane. When we landed at Shannon Airport, County Clare, Ireland I started shaking in the queue to final checking before flying to JFK airport, New York, USA. I was shaking because my fever...

Amazing

Recently, I had an opportunity to work with a vision impaired employee of our agency. I was amazed by his ability to work almost at the same speed and accuracy of a sighted person. Of course he uses a special software in his computer but he mastered the skills of...
