Dealing with Difficult People workshop
Supportive relationships are good for our mental and physical health.
However, dealing with chronically "difficult" people and maintaining ongoing negative relationships can actually be detrimental to our health.
The toll of the stress can affect us emotionally and physically.
Because of this, it’s a good idea to diminish or eliminate relationships that are filled with conflict whenever possible.
But what do you do if the person in question is a family member, co-worker, or someone you otherwise can’t easily eliminate from your life?

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?
Luckily self-checkout is being pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?
What are your thoughts? Is that rude?

Poll: Have you ever had a scary flight?
A plane flying from Christchurch to Wellington on Sunday had smoke billowing out of the engine and upon landing, passengers had to open the emergency exit and jump out. Have you had any scary flying experiences?
