Laurel and I took a road trip to Duck, North Carolina this past week, where she officiated a wedding of a former student and his new bride. Generally, we would fly, but without any direct flights and the need to rent a car to drive the 2 hours to the nearest airport to the resort in Duck, we figured it would take about the same amount of time.

According to a Gallup study , one in every six workers stay in a job they’re unhappy with because of the benefits and the lower the income the more tied to the job people are.

Almost every project comes in a little bit late and a little bit over budget. When things break, the breaks are rarely lucky ones.
