 <title>De-Adversify: Part 2 of The 12 Things I&#039;ve Learned About Business From Living Abroad</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/douglas-crets/different-fuel-business-strategies-new-ideas/de-adversify-part-2-12-things-ive-le</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;
I hate to read something like this, about a boy in South Carolina who was punished &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.thestate.com/breaking/story/521009.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;because he decided to use his broken pencil sharpener&lt;/a&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
But sometimes this happens. When you can&#039;t get the help you need for something, you have to make your own way. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The sharpener had broken, revealing the small blade found inside. He was suspended for ingenuity in the face of adversity. Again, this happens. Fate throws you a curve. But can you create your destiny?

 <title>Cubicles are hell</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/profile-blog/cubicles-are-hell</link>
 <description>Cubicles are never alright. It is only nice when it is quiet, which is
not often. I have a loud cackling laugh expelled from a woman next to
me. This can be heard with the office door closed and in the closed
restroom from the far end of the bathroom. IMAGINE being right next to
it and trying to concentrate. Who is going to complain when she is the
supervisor though? Then next to the loud aweful laugh I have an
insanely loud woman from BOSTON that drives me nuts! She is so loud.
She does not even care that people are actually working around her many&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.fastcompany.com/profile-blog/cubicles-are-hell&quot;&gt;read more&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
