Do you buy when they add the super- or hyper- labels?

February 27th, 2011

Ordinary things never seem to be quite enough for us these days, do they?

Just about every product seems to come in super- or hyper- or some equivalent to that. If it isn’t that, there’s the temptation to imply that it contains some prohibited ingredient or other. Hence probably the current promotions of hydroxycut reviews in the diet pill industry.

There’s nothing explicitly “wrong” about this kind of promotion of course but it does seem to be nearing the end of its life at the moment as more and more people are becoming immunised against this type of marketing. What will come next though?

Getting rid of those acne scars

February 27th, 2011

The problem with acne is that sometimes you need to consider acne scar removal after it’s gone from your life.

Covering up the spots when they are an integral part of your life is a pain when you have them but, of course, there’s always that temptation to pick away at them. Not a good idea for the long term but something that many of us obviously do so getting rid of those scars at a later date is also something that will need done in due course. Best to wait ’til you’re over the acne obviously.

Jobs in healthcare when the economy is flat

February 27th, 2011

When the economy isn’t doing too well it can pay to check out the healthcare job listings.

Whilst many are obviously specialist posts that you’re simply not going to be able to do without substantial amounts of training and education, there are a lot of non-health specific jobs that get listed on the healthcare job listings sites. Moreover, there are also quite a lot that don’t require massive amounts of training which is something worth considering if you’d like to add another skill-set to that which you already have.

Cuts there remain to come, but healthcare seems to be one of the areas where they’ll be felt that little bit less than elsewhere.
