A few days back I was reading this on Arjun’s page A travel junkie, caught between the dream world and the real world. Couldn’t stop pondering how true it was. Most of the times I find myself balancing myself between various things in life –work and life, yummy and healthy food, black-and-white and color photos …. just to name a few. Don’t know how many of you would agree though.
Decided to do this also in a monochromatic mood. This was taken at the Carnegie Museum. To me the layers of glass all around the figure represents the facets we are trying to balance in our lives with.

Flexibility boosts the bottom line: First Tennessee Bank knew from internal surveys that bank branches with the highest rates of employee retention were also the most profitable. So it conducted a trial to try to boost retention rates. When it trained managers in flextime practices, employees chose to stay with the bank longer — and so did customers. That loyalty added up to big bucks: Over three years, the bank’s earnings per share rose from 70 cents to $1.10, generating an extra $106 million in profits. The focus on flexibility and employee retention is now part of the entire company’s practices.
Graphic shows one bank’s experience with increasing flextime policies. Greater flexibility led to greater employee retention and that led to greater customer loyalty and increased profits.
