Advice for Job Seekers:

There have been many articles written about when it’s okay to leave a job on your first day. While this is certainly not something that should become a habit, everyone is entitled to an occasional mistake in their career path. If you realize on day one that you’ll be miserable in your new role each and every day, then preserving your happiness and sanity becomes more important than preserving your tenure. Here's what to consider. If you’re a stay-at-home parent, you may end up wanting to re-enter the workforce someday, whether it’s in a couple of months or several years. But going from stay-at-home parent to employee is easier said than done, especially if you maintain the former schedule for many years in a row. If you're planning to spend some time at home, here are some steps you can follow to make it easier to enter the workforce in the future.

This Week's Health Tips:

Box jumps are tough, no doubt about it. But they’re one of the best leg workouts at the gym. Take them on with regularity and expect strong, sculpted legs, a cardio boost, improved balance and coordination, and fat that seems to vanish overnight. It's not odd to start viewing our bodies in the same way that we view all the machines around us. Mainly, if there is a noise, a strange vibration, or a "creak," or "pop" we are quick to believe we've got a problem. It turns out, we aren't machines, and the research agrees that occasional or even reliable creaks and pops of the joints aren't death sentences or even guaranteed arthritis waiting to happen.
