I saw this list of Rules of Thumb in Readers Digest and thought it was very interesting, so I’m sharing a few.
**For every day you spend in the hospital, plan on one week to recuperate.
**To avoid lunatics on city buses, sit in the middle. The friendly lunatics sit as close to the driver as they can, and the unfriendly ones sit as far away as they can.
**Any cop will tell you that in a bar fight, the shorter of the two men probably started it.
**Keep white wine in your fridge and take it out 30 minutes before serving. Keep red wine out of the fridge and put it in 15 minutes before serving.
**As a manager, expect 80% of your work to be done by 20% of your staff. Also expect 90% of your headaches/problems to come from 10% of your staff.
And my favorite:
**You are wealthy enough to give some money to worthy causes when you can buy all the groceries you need.
