A urine taster knows what your pee says about you

Be honest – have you ever tasted your own pee, either on purpose or by accident?

Don’t be shy – we know that there’s at least one of you out there who’ve done it.  Astronauts have – their on-board drinking water is partially made from recycled urine.

Most Popular Holiday Gifts for Employees

Bosses: are you looking for what type of corporate holiday gifts you should be handing out to your employees at the end of the year?

It can be tough to choose – many organizations have extremely strict limits on how much of monetary value an individual can receive as a gift.  Web Watch knows of one company that gave each employee a $50 gift card last year… along with the appropriate paperwork so the proper taxable amount was reported to the IRS.

Yup, it was the classic “here’s a gift, and don’t forget to pay taxes on it” scam that’s all the rage these days.

Top 5 Restaurant Dishes That Should Never Be Served Ever Again

People say that running a bar or restaurant is one of the hardest careers that one can have.  In essence, you’re responsible for your customers’ happiness – which is completely different from being sure you provide good customer service.

People expect their food (or drink) to make them happy and content.  A good meal can bring a level of satisfaction that can only be met by very few other things in this world.  Web Watch will let you choose what those are for you.

Watching Top Chef, Iron Chef, or even the Next Food Network Star pale in comparison to MASTERCHEF, the program that takes “home cooks” and shows that complicated dishes can be made by anyone.

Would you have sex with a stranger? Chances are, yes.

Would you have sex with a stranger?

It’s a common thought, honestly.   Many of you think it over almost every single minute of the day, as you’re driving in rush-hour traffic and take a casual glance at the person driving next to you.  Walking down the street and getting a glance from someone at the coffee shop.  Passing someone going the other direction on the escalator.

It may be a fleeting moment, but you think it – just for a second.  “What if…”.   And then, like that, the moment has passed and you’ve moved on with your task at hand.

Top 10 Workplace Motivators (and ten that aren’t so much)

Bosses have it tough, much tougher than the employees they manage.

They have to lead, teach, motivate, advise, and occasional discipline their staff – their family – and do so in such a way as to still maintain that boss-employee relationship instead of delving into that questionable world of boss-but-friend awkwardness that can occasionally rear its ugly head.

Pictures of Couples Who Dress Alike, but aren’t twins. (Don’t be these people)

It’s almost Halloween time, and that time of year when spouses everwhere dread those two awful words:

“Couples’ Costume”

You never want to be THAT couple at a Halloween party, where your costume depends on your spouse to be around in order to complete the picture.  You don’t want to be dressed as an electric plug, and not have your outlet nearby – if you know what we mean.
