This is brilliant and subtly hilarious. He explains career crises, equality, envy, desire, possibility, insecurity (and its relationship to expensive cars), failure, and offers thoughts on re-defining "success" (hint: you have to do it yourself). http://www.ted.com/talks/alain_de_botton _a_kinder_gentler_philosophy_of_success. html

Burns Auto Parts--Consultants REGISTER YOUR IMAGES!!!

…Estimates: You can’t live with them, and you can’t live without them. They’re a bear to assemble and often just as complicated to parse if you’re the one doing the hiring. And the fact that everyone uses their own form/format only adds a layer of headache-inducing complexity.
