...Chances are, if you were applying for jobs, you didn’t see it much either because many employers have adopted what can only be described as a silent treatment toward those less-than-worthy applicants. This means that applicants who are not passed to further rounds are never notified of their rejected status. This policy is unreasonable and disrespectful. Employers need to treat their applicants with due regard and grant them the courtesy of knowing where they stand in the job acquisition process.

...these days, we often need to apply for multiple types of jobs, some of which we may be more qualified for than others. Of course, there are people out there who look so good on their applications, who are so incredibly qualified in their chosen fields, that they will never be rejected. But this is not the majority of us. A senior friend of mine has thus far submitted 42 (yes, 42) job applications, and has heard back from “not enough of them.” I myself, after applying for 12 summer positions of various types...

Your spouse comes to you and says he doesn't love you anymore and thinks he never did. This is many people's nightmare. But your book is about happiness. Explain.

...Surely the kid gloves would be donned in a place where young men wear blazers to sweep gravel from the walkways, and ushers politely guide patrons to the urinals, and refreshments are cheaper than fast-food, because the usual sports venue price gouging is considered poor manners. Hecklers could never get through the gate because Masters tickets aren't sold to the public; they're inherited, like bone china or shares of Coca-Cola Co. And if somehow a protester gained entrance, he would have thrust into his hand-as all spectators do-a copy of the admonition of tournament...

...Passage of a large piece of legislation that affects millions of lives is never without controversy. The Civil Rights Act resulted in brawls on the Senate floor and death threats against a number of Senators, including Robert F. Kennedy. The 1965 creation of Medicare and Medicaid tied up courts for decades with legal challenges from states. And Republicans called for the repeal of Social Security from its inception in 1935 under President Franklin Delano Roosevelt until Dwight D. Eisenhower's declaration of a cease-fire in the 1950s...
