Evolution of the Hen & Stag Party

Evolution of Hen and Stag Parties

Dating from as far back as the Spartans and Henry VIII through to the party-focused events we have today, Stag and hen parties (or bachelor and bachelorette parties) have changed dramatically over the years. Celebrating of the ‘last night of freedom’ is a time-honoured tradition but in recent years we have seen a shift from one-night parties to overseas weekend breaks filled with all manner of activities and celebrations. Even festivals and glamping are proving to be popular activities for stag and hen parties today.

The events also differ vastly between genders – with hens favouring activities like spas and stags preferring to go paintballing or go karting. Hen parties themselves weren’t even an option until the 1960’s when the feminist movement helped to spur on equality for all kinds of events

Here’s a fun look at how these much-loved celebrations started and the ways in which they’ve evolved throughout history.

The Dishonest Tradition of Fudging the Facts on a Resume

The Dishonest Tradition of Fudging the Facts on a Résumé
Source: The Dishonest Tradition of Fudging the Facts on a Resume

We all fudge the facts sometimes; from how big the fish we

caught was to how old we are. Sometimes we do it to impress somebody, sometimes

we do it to make ourselves look better, whatever the reason sometimes our fact

fudging has consequences. One incident that our fact fudging could have serious

consequences is on a resume.  Fudging the

facts on a resume is one of the most common ways people stretch the truth. However,

before you stretch the truth, fudge some facts, or down right lie on the next

resume you submit keep in mind that many employers are starting to spend more

time looking, researching, and reviewing resumes. For more information on

fudging the facts on a resume check out the attached infographic. 

Interim Managers- Infographic

Whether in business or football, all interim managers need certain skills to succeed. The use of interim managers is on the increase in both areas, so we’ve created an infographic to look at this growing trend.

The infographic covers three areas: firstly, we analysed ten interims in the Premier League era to see how they compared to their full time predecessors; then we took an in depth look at Chelsea, perhaps the club who use interim managers more than any other, before finally asking the ultimate question: “Who is the King of Interim?” Source:(http://iilovetechnology.blogspot.com/).

The revealing statistics clearly show that, at Chelsea, interim managers enjoy more success than at any other club. Perhaps this is because the use of interims is embedded in the club’s culture from season-to-season?

The Anatomy of an Audit

“Will you face an IRS audit this year? The answer is…maybe.  

The fear of facing an audit is common, even if you know that you’ve done nothing wrong. And the number of taxpayers who must face an audit is up slightly since 2009. But even with that increase, only slightly more than one percent of all returns are actually audited.

Individuals who earn more than one million dollars and corporations with over ten million dollars in assets are most likely to be audited. Of course, you’re not totally off the hook if that profile doesn’t describe you, but the odds of staying audit-free are in your favor.

Learn even more fascinating facts about IRS audits. Check out the infographic below.”
