Whether you are decorating for a party you’re having later today or you are cleaning up a party you had over the weekend, today is your Labor Day.
Stop by, read something, chat a bit, reflect on life, or don’t do any of those things. It’s days like this that make us who we are. So, whatever you do, be you.

I’d like to get my hands on the full article from the Yearbook, but still, this is a fantastic read. Pocket squares, double Windsor knots, and pumping up the volume. Man, I can’t wait for this guy to be an everyday story in Nashville.

The Interview & How Things Almost Ended Up All Wrong | jenlc13
You need to read this. @RegressedPDO (aka Jen) is a phenomenal hockey statistician and mandatory Twitter follow. She was brave enough to share a horrific experience she had when she was younger trying to interview for a job out of college. The importance of this issue cannot be understated, as there are undoubtedly more stories like hers out there.
