Picky Battles

June 24, 2016June 23, 2016 thequirkydigestLeave a comment

I am not exactly the best person to give this kind of advice, but it has to be said. Pick your battles carefully. I am pretty crabby when it comes to certain things, and very angry when pushed or when I bottle it up long enough.  Especially so when I’m also hangry (hungry+angry). However, there…… Continue reading Picky Battles

Cup Holders

June 22, 2016June 14, 2016 thequirkydigest3 Comments

Cup holders.  A first world solution to a first world problem.  But honestly, why not?  According to the New York MTA around 1.8 billion people use the subway service and 85 million people use the railroad annually.  That’s a lot of people.  Most of which are probably repeat riders, like myself.  I see many people…… Continue reading Cup Holders

Rainbow Child Scarf

June 18, 2016June 14, 2016 thequirkydigest2 Comments

The world is full of bad people.  Dangerous, evil, and cruel people.  People who want to hurt others for whatever reason they can come up with. Most people are not like this.  Most people are kind, generous, empathetic, and loving.  These wonderful people are all around you.  They are your family, your friends, your co-workers,…… Continue reading Rainbow Child Scarf

Mentor Me

June 17, 2016May 31, 2016 thequirkydigestLeave a comment

Do a quick google search and you will find plenty of resources on how to be a good mentor, or how to find a good mentor, great traits that mentors have and bla bla. Most of us are in serious need of a mentor.  But you can’t just find a mentor.  It’s not like you…… Continue reading Mentor Me

Helpless Help

June 15, 2016May 31, 2016 thequirkydigestLeave a comment

A few days ago, I had the pleasure of calling a company we do business with to clarify specific information regarding a specific process. Actually, let me start from the top.  I am one of those people who will do as much research as possible to find out the who, what, where, when, why, and…… Continue reading Helpless Help

Check Yourself

June 10, 2016May 31, 2016 thequirkydigestLeave a comment

We’ve all been told, at one point in our lives, to check our work.  To proofread what we’ve done.  To review our papers, before we hand them in for our grades.  And most of us, don’t. I was one of those students.  I would usually print it out, give it a quick once-over, and hand…… Continue reading Check Yourself

Smart Cops

June 8, 2016May 31, 2016 thequirkydigestLeave a comment

Apparently, the NYPD is using Smart Cars to patrol certain areas and streets instead of using their old scooters. They won’t be using these cars to chase criminals.  Or have shootouts in the streets like in the movies.  Just regular patrolling. Which would be fine, if NYC cops weren’t big guys.  Have you even seen…… Continue reading Smart Cops

Train Quirks

June 3, 2016May 31, 2016 thequirkydigestLeave a comment

It looks like this week is train week.  So, let’s talk about trains. I have the luxury of commuting with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), using their Metro North railways to get in and out of New York City for my lovely day job. There are several lines which come into the city, and each…… Continue reading Train Quirks

Flammable Stupidy

June 1, 2016May 31, 2016 thequirkydigestLeave a comment

On May 17th, 2016, there was a massive fire, underneath the tracks at East Harlem, which caused all trains coming in and out of New York City to stop running.  No one knew in the beginning why the fire was so bad and what caused it, all everyone did know was that the commute was…… Continue reading Flammable Stupidy
