Oh no! What have I eaten this morning that caused my whole body to itch nonstop? It couldn’t have been the slightly toasted whole meal buns I had with a little spread of butter for breakfast. I had those for breakfast almost daily. I’m so sure those extra spoonfuls of cereals I had added to my hot chocolate did not do any harm either. Neither would a few slices of honey melon in my diet would be blamed for the allergy. What could it be then? It really baffled me.
Recently, I had many encounters with such bad experiences. I would get this great deal of misery and discomfort and the next day it would just disappear. It’s just too mysterious! I tried tracking my food consumption but without any strong evidences that the food intakes were the culprits behind my allergies. It could be just anything from harmless food, bug bites to air pollutants. At times, while sitting down my work place, I would suddenly have runny nose after some stretches of irritated eyes. That’s really weird as the whole working environment was in an extreme clean state with no one being sick either.
Since these frequent allergies did not happen at the same place, I could be certain that it’s some unknown allergens flying around the environment. Thus, this triggered my Immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibody to fight against these invading substances by releasing further body chemicals which would result in an allergy reaction. I guessed it’s time I should seek an alternative allergy relief to ascertain a cleaner environment for me to live or work in. At least, I would be free from any more allergy attacks.

What do you know about AED? It’s actually an abbreviation for Automated External Defibrillator, a ready to use portable electronic device that automatically diagnoses the potentially life threatening cardiac arrest of a victim. These AEDs often are normally bright in colors and are mounted in protective cases near the entrance of buildings such as corporate and government offices, shopping centers, airports, restaurants, casinos, hotels, sports stadiums, schools and universities, community centers, fitness centers, health clubs, workplaces and any other location where people may congregate.
Why is it so important to have an AED around even in homes and vehicles, especially when a household member is known to have existing heart conditions? It’s useful and handy to carry and you may never know when you would need one around to save the life of a loved one.
The AED would not function as to shock “flat line” patterns. Instead, it would only treat the dysfunctional patterns of the heart as well as the chaotic beating of the heart. Every minute a victim in cardiac arrest gets treated by defibrillation, the chance of survival would increase by 10 percent prior to the arrival of an ambulance with professional help. Won’t you think it’s a great idea to own one around just in case of any emergencies? Nowadays, the price for one is quite reasonable for just any households.

I have been working in this office for the last few years and everything seemed to be fine until now. I have never felt so low in motivation and lethargic before. Something does not feel right here. It kind of felt like the whole working place turned so stuffy and stale. I even felt that my skin had gone dryer and dryer each day without the application of some hand and body moisturizing lotion. If solutions have not been found soon, I will end up an old hag in no time.
Could it be due to those humidifiers I have in the office? Maybe it’s time get those humidifier filters changed as I had not done so since I had first purchased them. By the look of those cracked wooden furniture near those humidifiers as well as the frequent static shocks I had experience recently, I guessed those humidifiers were the culprit behind all the dryness.
Ah! Finally I had all the humidifier filters changed. How much relieve I am in with a higher humidity level in the office now. Thanks to the replacement of the filters that I can at least work more comfortably in a cleaner office without loosing anymore moisture.

Many people thought that setting up an office would as easy as a piece of cake. Do you agree? Well, for me I would neither agree nor disagree. No matter how good the planning would be, there would always be some adjustments and add on to enhance the office to have a better working environment, not only for you but your bottom line. A lot of new establishments would take for granted that a simple layout with some basic office furniture would be presentable enough. It may be true for smaller companies which are not in the service industry but it somehow have the impact on the productivity, motivation and effectiveness of its workers.
You spent a great deal of time in the office and you also won’t want the office to be as gloomy and enclosed as a jail right? Lighting plays an important part in a working environment as it would make the office feel more workable and comfortable. There should be ample windows to let some natural light into the room on top of the ceiling and standing lights to make the place perfect to work by.
I’m sure most people would have known by now that having more personal work stations with the right office furniture would help your staff feel more homely. No matter what, get the right office furniture that would make you feel more comfortable. The chairs should be adjustable with proper arm support in order to have your feet flat on the floor. This would ensure good sitting postures while working long hours. On the other hand, the desk should be clever designed with proper hidden compartments to save some space. Hidden keyboards and mouse should encourage a parallel hand positions while typing and there should be ample space to stretch your legs.
There are so many ways you can improve your office working environment and it would take dozens of pages if I were to propose here. With your own creativity or with the right consultancy from any of your nearby office furniture planners, you could always consider the improvement of other areas in the office such as the pantry area, reception area, guest waiting area and many more. It’s worth the investment as better office furniture would surely ensure the productivity of the people in it.
