Left and right brain dominance

October 26, 2007 · Filed Under Brain teasers · 4 Comments 

Tell me quick, what direction does this picture seem to be spinning? Clockwise or counterclockwise?

Spinning girl - Brain Teaser!

If you feel it is clockwise, you are predominantly right brained, and if you vote for anticlockwise, you are left brained. For some, it alternates between the two directions. But how it strikes your eye first is the criterion.

And right brain controls creativity, imagination, images, love, fantasies etc. while left hemisphere controls functions that are logical, realistic, factual, remembering names, inter alia.

Now, are you a Leftist or a Rightist? :lol:

The Grooming Guide

December 6, 2005 · Filed Under General · Comment 

Grooming GuideThe Commonwealth Bank of Australia has issued a set of guidelines to its staff to present themselves better at the cutting edge level with the customers. The guide was called the “Grooming Guide”.

Here are some of its contents:-

For Women

  • When choosing stockings, avoid shiny finishes - they make your legs look larger
  • Flesh coloured, smooth finish t-shirt bras will give you the best, most discrete look.
  • Take the time to style your hair before leaving for work in the morning.
  • Your hands do get noticed - moisturise your hands regularly.
  • Consider having unruly brows regularly waxed or plucked.

For Men

  • Trim your nose and ear hair. Hair in these areas can increase as you age and may give the impression that you are not well groomed.
  • If your hair is light in colour, grey or curly, a shine product can add lustre and help it look healthy.
  • After-shave lotions contain alcohol and can produce broken capillaries on your face (small red veins). Use eau de colognes on your body instead.
  • If you wear glasses, update them at least once a year.

There are some mumblings against the Guide, but come to think of it, such a guideline may be necessary to impress the customers, from the bank’s point of view.
