PERHAPS INTERESTED in some "Laws for Life & Work" from BOB FEUER's e-mail: (1) Murphy's First Law for Wives: If you ask your spouse to pick up five
items at the store and then add one more as an afterthought, he will forget two of the first five; (2) Salary Axiom: The pay raise is just large enough to increase your
taxes and just small enough to have no effect on your take-home pay; (3) Miller's Law of Insurance: Insurance covers everything except what happens; (4) Kauffman's
Paradox of the Corporation: The less important you are to the corporation, the more your tardiness or absence is noticed; and (5) Lampner's Law of Employment: When
leaving work late, you will go unnoticed, when you leave work early, you will meet the boss in the parking lot. Perhaps more in future "Ripples" when space permits.
