Games night – A plethora of lessons
We abandoned our first Scrabble game. On my part, I was using less tiles to get more points but that created a deadlock.

The plight of Young Professionals: My side hustle
A lot of Young Professionals have been “profession-hopping” and one of the causes is related to remuneration. (This is from my personal observations).
