Finding Temporary Work Through Catapult
So using this app Catapult has been a total blast! I've been using it for about a month now and out from the depleting money from my bank account with pretty much nothing going in, I decided to look for job opportunities.
Hilda HiongPublished 6 years ago in JournalMost Useful Gifts for Entrepreneurs
Crafting a business is no walk in the park, but neither is choosing a good gift for that entrepreneurial friend of yours. Don't stress over it too much, it doesn't have to be something super worthwhile and meaningful. While assisting in their business is an obvious, yet overused notion, one must turn to their intellect when shopping for the intellectually savant.
George HermanPublished 6 years ago in JournalBusiness Podcasts That Will Boost Your Career
A lot of people might say there's no business like show business, but if we were more realistic, business in and of itself is something that is ever-changing, unpredictable, and at times, downright amazing. A person's skill in managing, communication, and just keeping up with the current trends of the business world can make or break their career and financial independence.
Cato ConroyPublished 6 years ago in JournalMust-Have Products for Your Office
We spend around a third of our days in the office, and yet, our desks always seem to be an afterthought to our lifestyle. This doesn't make sense. After all, we spend hundreds just whiling away hours at night clubs — why shouldn't we splurge on improving the overall time we spend at our desks, too?
Ossiana TepfenhartPublished 7 years ago in JournalGreat Gifts to Buy for Your Employees for Any Occasion
There is no fundamental route for present shopping, especially when you're looking for something to give to your employees. Whether it's for office parties, Secret Santa gifts, or a combination of the two, employee gift shopping should be the least of your concerns. This can be stressful, time consuming, and a chore that will ultimately make you either look foolish in front of said employee, or just simply uncaring toward that individual, neither of which are positive for your business.

Rowan MarleyPublished 7 years ago in JournalMust Have Gear for Working Remotely
As we rely more and more on the internet, people working from home is becoming more common and less of an anomaly. Many companies, especially smaller ones, are eliminating the office altogether. Why spend a ton on rent in a swanky Manhattan office when most work is done through the internet?
Joseph FarleyPublished 7 years ago in JournalCool Products You Need If Your Office Is Always Cold
Offices are generally supposed to be comfortable places — and that can be problematic, since different people will find different temperatures comfortable. This can lead to problems when you don't agree with the person in charge of the thermostat.

Patty RamsenPublished 7 years ago in JournalBest Gifts for Your Coworkers
When it comes to gift giving, sometimes buying someone a gift can become an actual struggle. There are moments where you don’t exactly know the person’s interests or what exactly she/he needs in her life. Sure, buying close family members and friends gifts is an easy task to do, but for coworkers… not the simplest of things. Even though you see your coworkers about 40 hours a week, you sometimes don’t actually know much about them. Other than their pet peeves that you constantly do or how much you know about their cats that they keep bringing up (and you couldn't care any more) — buying your coworkers gifts is tough sometimes, and you're certainly not the only one who thinks this.
C.C. CurtisPublished 7 years ago in JournalHow To Self Publish as an Indie Author
So, you’ve finally finished writing your book, awesome! But now what? If you’re anything like me, the fear and uncertainty of what to do next will cause you to develop chronic procrastination and self-doubt. I spent countless hours searching the internet with dry, tired eyes, lost in the world of literature and publication as a new author. There were so many things to consider! Finding an agent, searching for editors, and contacting publishers—it was very overwhelming. And oh my goodness! The cost of these options was nothing if not disheartening. Even so, a part of me didn’t want anyone else touching my work. I’ve heard horror stories of authors who have submitted their work to editors only to have their story torn apart and changed completely. How could I avoid losing the authenticity of my story while still finding a way to publish my book to a large audience? These thoughts ate away at me until I almost gave up the hope of doing anything with my work.
