Note: This has been an idea for a lot of characters and it just...really fits Jack I think. There is also a version coming for Robby.

Warnings: Angst, Fem!Reader, regular trauma related violence, gun violence, death, established relationship, no beta.

Summary: You and Jack have your own silent way to communicate the love you have for each other which comes in handy after you're injured at Pitt Fest.

It was subtle the way that it started, a way for Jack and yourself to say 'I love you' without saying it. As the only ward clerk allowed at Central, because you were the only truly trusted one, you had grown close to Jack, ensuring that orders, be it medication or imaging, or even admissions, were entered correctly into the Epic system for the night shift team, taking some of the load off of the nurses and at the same time, making sure that all records were accurate, particularly for the billing side of things, lest Gloria have an aneurysm if something was missed that could have been billed for. Day shift had an equivalent of you, but they were new and not as trusted. It was not uncommon for Robby to stay late just to ask you to ensure that his final orders for the night were followed.

Because of this a relationship with Jack grew, the stoic, former soldier, but still a soldier at heart, cracking a small smile here and there. You would bring him coffee to start the night (while also being the official brewer of coffee for the staff lounge), ground him when he lost patients, and eventually you found yourself grabbing breakfast with him most mornings. About 6 months into the job, Jesse collects his winnings on the running bet of when you would finally admit that you were together. There was no big revelation. One night, you were both off (somehow you just happened to be on the same shift schedule as Jack, something that was not lost on you) sitting in the living room of your small apartment watching movies. You were always at your place and not his because yours was 'homey' according to him. You had been leaning on the arm of the couch, legs covered by a blanket and his head in your lap, your fingers carding through his greying hair.

You had looked down at him to find him staring at you. "My lease is up in a month, I have to decide if I'm signing again or not." You had mumbled. The corner of his mouth quirked, "Yeah?" You simply nodded. "You should move into my place, add some personality, and no rent." He had replied. "You think so? Your room or the spare?" You asked with a raised brow.

"Mine of course."

You moved in ten days later and never left. One year later, you were married. That was three years ago.

—

The first 'I love you' came after the anniversary of his wife's death, after you'd lived with him three months. He had understandably had a bad day, thankfully it was not a workday for him and he could take it easy. He saw his therapist, showed up back at home and cornered you in the kitchen where you had been preparing dinner for the two of you. Backing you into the counter, he wrapped his arms around you, kissing your forehead and holding you close before whispering a soft "I love you." You're not ashamed to say you cried a little before telling him that you did in fact love him too.

At work, you kept things professional. Anyone not new, knew that you were together, knew that you lived in the same house and knew that Jack was incredibly protective, but they also knew that they were the ultimate professionals, with only subtle changes. If he was hanging out by your workstation, asking you to add orders, a hand would be on your shoulder, or your waist if he was sitting, and if they were really paying attention...they would see the three soft taps or squeezes that you would leave on one another. Always three. Your silent way of saying I love you. It was integrated into everyday life, even at home when watching TV.

Dana had witnessed it once as she was coming into work one morning. The shift had been hard, four patients had been lost, and one had been only a couple of months old. Jack had retreated to the lounge, attempting to escape everything without heading to the roof, he didn't think that he was at that point yet. You had followed closely, standing in front of him, trying to ground him with soft words. Dana had walked in to put her lunch in the fridge as you'd raised a hand to his chest, tapping three times on his chest just over his heart. He'd pulled you close then, arms wrapping around you, tapping your hip three times in response as you stood quietly. Dana had decided that her lunch could go in the fridge later.

—

The morning of Pitt Fest, you were excited. Both you and Jack had the night off, Jack wouldn't be going, but he'd gotten yourself and your best friends passes for your anniversary. You were dead tired but chugged a can of Monster while packing another for the road. After getting yourself ready you kissed him goodbye, gave him three quick taps on the chest and made your way out the door where Christy and Samantha were waiting for you in Christy's car. Jack showered and went to bed for the day. 30 minutes after leaving you were coffeed up, energized and ready to party. Jack was out cold, his police scanner on for white noise in the background. Every so often you sent Jack a text, knowing he'd have it on do not disturb unless it was a phone call from yourself or the hospital. You sent updates, photos and videos. Jack finally started responding around 3:30 pm, finally giving up on sleep after briefly waking at 2. A simple thumbs up emoji was sent in response to everything you had sent. You sent back a heart, chugged another Monster and went back to the music, running into Jake and his girlfriend Leah briefly around 4.

It was just after 5:30 when things went sideways. You and your friends were close to the stage, listening to a lesser-known local band, but one that you knew well when you heard the first pops of what you thought were firecrackers...they could have been pyrotechnics, but this band didn't have the budget for that. Your head tilted, the band didn't stop so everything had to be, okay? Right?

Wrong, you were so very wrong. One moment you had turned to Christy, intending to ask if she'd heard the pops, and the next thing you knew your face was covered in blood and half of Christy's was...no longer there. Screams erupted as you dropped to the ground, grabbing Samantha by the hand and pulling her flat. Some people were running, some were taking cover, but you knew you couldn't stay where you were.

"What the actual fuck?!" You heard Samantha say. "What the fuck is happening? Y/N. We have to get Christy; we can't leave Christy!" Samantha was panicking, so were you, but working in the Emergency Department had trained you to stay calm, or as calm as you could, but this was different. You shook your head. "We can't help Christy." You said, pulling Samantha with you as you carefully maneuvered closer to the stage, intending to go under it for cover, staying low as you went.

"What the fuck do you mean we can't help Christy?" You sighed, turning slightly but not stopping as people dropped around you. You didn't speak again until yourself and Samantha were under the stage, others following your example. You turned to fully look at Samantha, pale, her eyes wide, clear signs of shock. "Sammy, I need you to focus. Christy is dead, okay, very, very dead." The fact that your best friend since childhood was gone had set in but you couldn't let yourself fall apart, you could do that later when you were safe at home in Jack's arms.

You quickly realized that you couldn't stay where you were, despite being covered from above, the sides of the stage were open, and it would be easy to shoot underneath it. You crawled to the other side of the stage, slowly, listening as the gunshots continued, getting closer and closer to the stage. Every so often you looked behind you to make sure Samantha was still following, she was. When you got to the edge of the stage you realized that there was a new problem. The closest exit was the entrance to the venue...which was on the other side of the field. The rest of the area was contained with a chain-link fence, you could climb it, but that would leave you exposed. No matter what you did, to get out you needed to leave your cover and make a run for it. Taking a deep breath, you pulled your phone from your pocket, shooting off a quick text to Jack, not having time to call him.

Shooter at Pitt Fest. I'm trying. I love you.

—

Jack had been staring at the ceiling, having not moved from the bed, when the police scanner went off. 'All units, multiple reports of shots fired at Pitt Fest, unknown number of suspects, unknown number of casualties.'

For a moment Jack's heart stopped and his blood froze. You were there. You and your friends. You, who had begged him to come along but he hadn't wanted any part of the crowds, noise and well...all of it. You were there. He was not. He shook it off, and steeled himself, slipping into combat mode, grabbing his phone and his go bag before rushing to his truck. He checked his phone to see if you'd messaged him, you hadn't, and he hesitated over the call button, only stopping because he knew your phone would not be on silent and a ringing phone could make you a target. He was out of the driveway barrelling towards PTMC in less than two minutes.

30 minutes later he received your text, he was elbow deep in a patient trying to save them.

Mel was taking half a second to breathe in the ambulance bay, ready for her next patient with Shen, seemingly unflappable, by her side as the next load of cars came in. As the SUV pulled to a screeching halt in front of her, Shen was by her side, swinging the door open as a Samantha immediately jumped out, blood all over her and pressing her sweater into your chest. Mel had no idea who you were, it was her first day, she just needed to triage you and get you inside, Shen however, froze. Mel noticed and her eyes widened. "No, I don't like that face. Dr. Shen?"

Shen quickly assessed you. "Fuck, she's a red..." He turned to Mel. "Help me get her in there and do NOT let Abbot have this one." Mel cocked her head to the side. "Why can't Dr. Abbot have her?"

Shen took a breath. "She works here; she's one of us. Most importantly? She's his wife."

He did not stop Samantha from following.

—

Jack had barely looked up when Shen came in with the next victim, he was busy with his own patient, it registered in his brain that the patient was being handed off to Robby, which meant they were in good hands. It was Robby shouting "fuck" that got his attention. His head lifted and when he looked at Robby, the older man was doing chest compressions, but his eyes were on Jack. Jack felt a pit settle in his gut, and then he spotted Samantha. He knew. Immediately he turned to Mohan. "Take over, now!"

Heart hammering in his chest he didn't give Mohan a moment to argue before he was rushing over to Robby, Samantha spotting him and wrapping her arms around him for a second. "I-I'm s-sorry Jack. Its m-my fault, s-she was covering m-me when she was hit...Christy's dead. Fuck, I'm sorry." Samantha was spiralling, internally so was he, he could only hear the blood in his ears. No man's land. You were hit in no man's land.

Robby wouldn't let him help, couldn't let him help. Not just for ethical reasons but if you died and Jack was working on you, well...Jack wouldn't survive that. Jack likely wouldn't survive either way, but at least if it was Robby, Jack wouldn't hate himself. Not as much. Jack watched as they were able to stabilize you just enough to send you off to surgery, Jack following close behind with Robby hot on his heels. They stopped the gurney at the OR doors, just long enough for Jack to lean down, pressing a soft kiss to your forehead, his hand squeezing yours three times, even though you couldn't respond.

"Don't you fucking leave me, I can't go through this again."

Jack went back to work with the promise from Garcia that as soon as there was an update, he would have it. This was a MASH unit and there was no time to stop.

—

It's hours later when the darkness starts to fade from your consciousness. You're on your back, and part of you panics when you realize that the discomfort in your throat is from being intubated, the instinct to fight the machine helping you breathe running rampant. You reached up, grabbing for the offending tube and ignoring the pain you were suddenly feeling. You barely register the scrapping of a chair being moved as a shadow moved into your view, grabbing for your hand to stop you.

"Hey! Hey, no, none of that baby, you need that right now." You froze, unable to fight the strong grip he had on you. Your eyes focused, and there was your Jack, staring down at you, looking exhausted and like he'd aged about 30 years. His hair looked like he hadn't stopped running his hands through it. He leaned over you, letting go of your hand when he realized that you were relaxing a bit, his hand moving to tuck some of your hair out of your face and behind your ear.

"You're okay, scared the fuck out of me, but you're okay." His voice was gruff, tired and soft all the same time, cracking a bit near the end like he was holding back tears. "My therapist is going to have a field day." He said with a bitter chuckle.

You reached up as best you could, tracing your fingers over his face wearily. You felt the tears fall before you could stop them, and brought your hand to his chest, just over his heart and tapped him three times. You watched Jack's lip tremble a bit as he reached for your hand, clearing his throat.

"I know." He squeezed your hand gently three times.

I love you.

Humans seem to have a "switch"

Team building exercises and competitive events are commonplace around the Galaxy. Everyone needs a distraction from the daily grind every now and then, and large organizations and long-term deployments make it essential for such "ice-breaker" activities, both to help integrate newcomers as well as reduce the chance of veterans becoming numb to life.

Yarvut Lyetzsnezhniiy had recently been assigned as a Cultural Analyst to the Human embassy aboard the Coalition Governing Station. While highly professional on the job and quite amicable, but wasn't all that into small talk, and once the workday was over, he was gone. No overtime, no hanging out, nothing.

When time came for the next publicly broadcast Cross-Embassy Game Series, where as many members from each species represented would be paired up with each other over the course of several days and partake in a game both agreed to in advance. Most of these were of the mental variety, and were honestly kinda boring to observe, but some pairings opted for more... active activities.

On the second day the Humans and another bipedal species called the Jorval had agreed to a competition not dissimilar to laser tag. This had actually been proposed by the previous Cultural Analyst and recently been added to the roster with some modifications. Two teams of, in this case, 15 participants on each side, as that was how many Humans were available that day without hindering the core operations of their embassy, so a few Jorvals had to sit out.

They entered a large spherical room with about a 300 meter diameter. Once they were done with the formalities, rules about safety, and yadda yadda - they turned off the gravity. Using small boosters on their heels, knees, elbows, and back, the teams floated to their starting locations on opposite ends of the sphere. And now the obstacles gently puttered in from all sides, turning a pristine empty space into a jungle of jarringly colored geometric shapes, natural looking plant replicas, and numerous traversable but obscuring meshes that come in all colors and patterns. Where once you could observe the entire area from anywhere, now there were scarcely any vistas that would allow one to see more than 50 meters away.

All for a simple capture the flag laser tag game. The Jorval have fairly long lifespans and, though they have not engaged in any wars for generations, military training is compulsory and seen as a matter of course by most of their society, so even the most desk-dedicated office workers are in generally good shape and have some reflexive combat moves at the ready. The Human team on the other hand, had one guy who used to be in the army... 40 years ago, two had taken up martial arts as a hobby, and Yarvut who turns out was an air-soft enthusiast. The rest were your typical either slightly too thin or too thick office workers when it came to their physical readiness.

Before the signal to start, the army guy, Brandon, gave out some tips and pointers, though it was likely going over everyone's heads as they tried to adjust to moving around in zero-g. No sooner had the game started, Yarvut dashed off on his own. Everyone did kinda feel he might do a lone wolf thing, but that, unsurprisingly, was short lived, as not even the two minute mark had struck when Yarvut found himself ambushed from three sides and was now locked in his suit gently pressed up against a tree-like obstacle with a modest view of the Jorval turf.

It would be a best of three, and, predictably, the first match ended with a strong Jorval victory by the seventeenth minute mark. However, it was not a total wipeout as the initial minutes might have suggested. Half of the remaining Humans were taken out within five, but by then Brandon had gotten used to moving in all directions and keeping tabs on the z-axis as well, and was coordinating a defensive tactic with the remaining members. He knew they would lose this match, but he was bent on making the Jorval earn it and show him what they could really do. In the end, every Human was taken out, and the Jorval had lost only three members, though all of which fell victim to the final holdout against just four Humans.

When it was time to swap home bases for the next match, before Brandon could start elaborating on his new tactics, Yarvut surprised everyone by huddling everyone together for a tactical discussion himself. From his position early on he was left with nothing else to do but carefully and calmly observe how the Jorval moved, where they focused their sights on, how close they tend to stick to each other, and other minor details which Brandon was deeply impressed by. Using this newfound perspective and knowledge, Brandon came up with a far more refined strategy for both offense and defense.

Seemingly bolstered by the humiliating defeat, the rest of them were also more motivated, and the entire Human team now gave off, what the neutral observers of the games described as, a different aura. Like something had flipped, that turned this group of people they knew and worked with and respected and generally liked, into something menacing, a focused machine almost. The look in their eyes through the visors sent shivers down most everyones spines or equivalents whenever a camera operator decided to do a zoom in.

Upon the start signal, the Humans split into five squads, one pair on defense duty, one four person team on patrol around the immediate vicinity, and three squads of three on offense, taking the longest route all around the edge of the sphere going for a three-sided ambush of the Jorval's home turf. It was amazing to see how much smoother and more coordinated each Human moved now, when before it was the first time most of them were expected to maneuver in zero-g using suits they had never worn before. You could literally see them adapting and intuitively getting a better by the minute at handling the booster-based movement, and navigating and keeping tabs on all three dimensions. Some were better at it than others, but even the most clumsy of the Humans was still visibly more comfortable now than thirty minutes ago.

The patrol squad had a quick skirmish with a Jorval scout, paralyzing his legs before he made a rapid retreat and taking no wounds themselves. Then a minute of silence, interrupted by a burst of activity coming from the Jorval base, then another minute of silence.

Yarvut was the only of the attack squad members to return, his left arm paralyzed, but he rushed past the defense members to plant the enemy flag in their base and take the win. It was now 1-1.

Another huddle, nobody even needed to call for it, now everyone on the Human team had fully switched to "hunter mode", as a Human audience member called it.

The third and deciding match wasn't even close. Once again, five squads, but this time three each and all in attack formation. They did not give the Jorval even time to fully disperse before the Humans came barreling through the obstacles just thirty seconds after the start signal. Shock and awe - every Jorval was taken out in the next twenty seconds, no Human losses.

Combining what everyone conveyed about their opponents from the second match with Yarvut's keen observations from the first, Brandon figured the Jorval were behaving in a standardized and heavily drilled pattern and would likely repeat it for the third, perhaps with minor alterations expecting another three-way ambush or some other sneaky and delayed attack. Their scout had also not arrived all that fast, so they must have trained to be very methodical in their approach. Brandon also employed a methodical defense the first time, then a coordinated precision strike, so, naturally, it was time for a sledgehammer approach.

And it worked beautifully, completely catching everyone off guard, even the audience. Blink and you missed the entire action. Everyone knows Humans can be reckless and even downright crazy, but to witness them going full "hunter mode" was a first for practically all observers. And this was just some office workers and an elderly former low ranking soldier. What kind of monsters were their actual well trained and fully geared up soldiers then?

I really want to limit how much I describe the sentient aliens as they are not the focus of these stories, but it would be awkward to keep saying "those bipedal aliens", so a compromise this time. How they look beyond bipedal I'll leave entirely to your imagination.

[whentherewerebicycles]

god ok I had hoped to carve out time to work on these job materials but I had too many other things on my plate today and was too fried at the end of the workday. I think I will probably need to take a day off work if I want to get rough drafts done by the weekend ugh. but what if I don’t use that time wisely and then I’ve wasted some of my extremely limited & precious PTO??

ok. maybe I will think aloud under the cut.

I can build the diversity statement around my past program redesign work I think, which was all focused on first gen persistence/success, and then I can connect that to my current efforts to make experiential learning more accessible by encouraging and supporting integration into the curriculum (most of these efforts have been thwarted by the extreme dysfunction in our office but I do have a couple wins and/or in/progress projects I can highlight). I think the core thesis of the diversity statement will be like… I approach equity and inclusion as structural problems that can most effectively be addressed by structural solutions—ie by designing our programs, courses, assignments, etc in ways that demystify the hidden curriculum, recognize the importance of soft skill development, intentionally cultivate a sense of community and belonging, and provide students with the scaffolded support they need to persist and excel academically. I think they probably also want to hear something about culturally responsive teaching, so I’ll have to think about how to string those ideas together and what examples I can cite there… hmm hmm. I should be sure to balance teaching and administrative work examples here.

cover letter can be straightforward I think… I don’t want to overthink it as I’ll have more space to be creative in the teaching & diversity statements. I want to highlight the wide range of teaching, coaching, mentoring, and higher ed admin work I’ve done… I think the core thesis here is that I am an experienced educator, administrator, and coach with deep knowledge of both the research + applied praxis stuff around student success and student retention in higher ed. I also have a very strong interest in and knowledge of experiential learning and embedding high impact practices into the curriculum, and as a teacher am always looking for ways to help students connect what they’re learning in the classroom to real world contexts that have personal/authentic meaning in their lives. let’s see I also want to highlight that I’ve worked in writing centers or as a writing consultant for a gazillion years and have a lot of experience with mentoring/advising, but will have to figure out how to develop a thesis that weaves together these different ideas so it doesn’t feel too much like a list of things I’ve done. I also want to have a paragraph where I highlight things that are specific to the college, as I genuinely think this college is doing some awesome stuff and would love to work there. hmm ok. I need to map this one out a little more clearly, like just figure out how I want to structure and sequence it, and what I need to include, but I think that I am genuinely like… a highly qualified candidate? and hopefully knowing that that will help me write from a headspace of strength/confidence instead of agonizing over each and every word.

teaching philosophy: this is where I feel like I might have to do the most thinking/writing from scratch, but I should also look at my past materials to see if maybe I’ve done more of this than I think. I am a little hesitant to use my woolf example in case they dismiss me out of hand as someone who mostly wants to teach literature not composition… but the woolf example is so good because it encapsulates so many of my teaching values and so much about the playfulness of my teaching style, and I think I can reframe it slightly so it makes it clear that the lesson was equipping students with the tools to write thoughtfully about a dense text… and I bet I can tweak the description of the assignment a bit too to better fit a writing class. hmm I will have to do the most brainstorming here I think, to really distill my zillions of thoughts about teaching into a core thesis, but I think maybe the basic ideas are that I use a highly collaborative, playful style that is intentionally designed to defuse student anxiety, foster a sense of community and belonging in the classroom, and help students discover their own voices and ideas instead of imitating conventional styles. maybe I can talk about three different areas: what I actually do in the classroom (highly interactive, collaborative activities that get students involved in creating and doing), how I build syllabi and design writing assignments (how I use assignment design to foster student voice, encourage creativity and self-reflection, and connect classroom learning to authentic real world contexts), and how I assess student work (using alternative assessment systems to give students greater autonomy, spark intrinsic motivation, and guide students towards valuing process over product in writing). I don’t want students to learn how to perfectly and uncritically replicate established forms of conventional academic writing… instead, I want to cultivate their understanding of writing as a mode of thinking—an extremely powerful, useful, and rewarding tool or set of tools for making sense of one’s own beliefs and one’s position in the world. but I also gotta balance the feminist theory-inflected stuff with the realities of community college composition courses… so I want to be sure to also convey that I rely a lot on using iterative revision + collaborative peer feedback to help students carve out clearer, more cogent articulations of their ideas… and probably should be sure I am talking somewhere about the way I would teach a developmental writing course. I really want to talk about the feedback cycle liz uses but I haven’t ever implemented it in a class (I’ve just thought a lot about how I WOULD implement it lol) so I feel like maybe I can’t use that. hmm ok. to think further but I actually feel like I have basic building blocks here!!

Re your 'banana shit' post: what are good sources to learn about the human cost in export economies and international shipping?

"The use of harmful child labor is widespread in Ecuador’s banana sector. Researchers for the Human Rights Watch report, Tainted Harvest: Child Labor and Obstacles to Organizing on Ecuador’s Banana Plantations, spoke with forty-five child laborers during their three-week long fact-finding mission in Ecuador. Forty-one of the children began working between the ages of eight and thirteen, most starting at ages ten or eleven. Their average workday lasted twelve hours, and fewer than 40 percent of the children were still in school by the time they turned fourteen.

In the course of their work, they were exposed to toxic pesticides, used sharp knives and machetes, hauled heavy loads of bananas, drank unsanitary water, and some were sexually harassed. Roughly 90 percent of the children told Human Rights Watch that they continued working while toxic fungicides were sprayed from airplanes flying overhead. For their efforts, the children earned an average of $3.50 per day, approximately 60 percent of the legal minimum wage for banana workers."

"In the geographically small countries of Central America, a couple of US-based banana companies have wielded enormous influence. The United Fruit Company (now known as Chiquita) acquired so much power in Guatemala and Honduras that it came to function as a state within a state, giving rise to the notion of “banana republics.” The company consolidated its power through various means: it installed authoritarian civilian and military governments that gave concessions to land, railroads, and ports; it divided its labor force along ethnic and racial lines; it built hospitals, schools, workers’ barracks, and houses for its management; and it used massive amounts of pesticides and herbicides in a capital intensive effort to cultivate varieties of the fruit that North American consumers came to expect but which were susceptible to Panama disease and Black Sigatoka. Bananas and plantains are a dietary staple throughout the tropics, and the diseases that beset the Gros Michel and Cavendish varieties that are grown on monocrop plantations threaten a vital source of healthy and relatively cheap calories that much of the world has come to rely upon."

"Benthic macroinvertebrates are usually abundant in rivers, represent several trophic levels, participate in nutrient cycling and differ in sensitivity to pollution. Most of them have small home ranges, at least in aquatic stages, and usually have long life cycles and thus are good bioindicators as they provide information about the water quality integrated over a longer time period, compared to the values given by water samples taken at discrete points in time. Pesticide and nutrient levels in the aquatic environment can be expected to vary, with peaks after application and high rainfall events. Monitoring of pesticide levels thus requires a very frequent sampling to detect peak concentrations (Liess et al. 2003). Another concern is that toxic effects can result from exposure near or below the analytical detection limit for a given pesticide (Walter et al. 2002) or from a combination of pesticides and other stressors, e.g. temperature or high nutrient loads (Polidoro and Morra 2016). It is also important to consider the effect of chronic exposure to pesticides as well as the exposure to mixtures of several pesticides, which together can cause toxic effects through additive toxicity (Verbruggen and van den Brink 2010).

The possible additive or synergistic effects between stressors are a major concern in rivers, which receive irrigation and run-off water from banana farms. Large-scale banana farming relies on the use of fungicides, nematicides, insecticides and herbicides. Most often, several different compounds of each type of pesticide are applied over the year in order to minimize risk of inducing resistance in pests. The extensive system of drainage canals in a typical banana farm causes increased stream flashiness and sedimentation and due to high precipitation a substantial amount of pesticides and nutrients end up in the aquatic environment. Non-target aquatic organisms further downstream will thus be subjected to a complex mixture of toxic substances, fertilizers and changes in stream flow."

"The conversion of natural ecosystems to intensive banana production systems can have negative effects on soil health, such as erosion, loss of organic matter and biodiversity, in addition to chemical, biological and physical imbalances. Indeed, soil degradation is a major factor limiting the productivity and sustainability of the banana sector. Banana growers worldwide, from conventional and organic export monocrops to mixed food gardens with bananas, suffer soil degradation processes through a complex of factors which vary by system and agroclimatic region. Salinization (due to inadequate irrigation practices and drainage), compaction, nutrient imbalances (due to the unavailability of organic fertilizers, soil depletion or over-fertilization, loss of biological activity), and incidence of soil-borne pathogens (loss of diversity of soil biota resulting in low disease suppressiveness) are key issues in banana plantations worldwide."

The research you've been doing will pay off -- expect big time and money savings.

Imagine yourself as the seasoned captain of a majestic ship, sailing through the vast ocean of life. Your journey is usually smooth, predictable, guided by familiar stars and currents. But today, you find that the sea has other plans for you-a rogue wave rises without warning, demanding a last-minute maneuver to keep your vessel on course. Last-minute turnarounds may not be what you wished for under the serene sky; they're akin to unexpected storms that challenge even the most experienced sailors.

Yet it's precisely these unforeseen tempests that reveal our true mastery over our ships. As we brace against the wheel and navigate through choppy waters, we discover hidden strengths within us-innate abilities to adapt and overcome any squall or gust. The tumultuous seas give us a chance to meet ourselves anew: no masks or pretenses shaped by others' perceptions but rather an authentic self-portrait painted in strokes of resilience and courage.

General:

Today beckons you with this trial by water-an opportunity disguised as upheaval. When circumstances sway away from your meticulously charted map, don't view it merely as chaos; instead see it as terra incognita begging for exploration. By treating each twist and turn like uncharted territory harboring lessons yet learned, every moment becomes rich with potential growth-not just an ordeal but an odyssey offering wisdom at every cresting wave.

Health:

Your body is your steadfast vessel enduring winds and waves alike-pay homage to its resilience with thoughtful care. Today might bring unexpected stressors capable of throwing even robust health off-kilter if left unchecked. Be proactive about wellness like a prudent mariner checking their hull for integrity before setting sail at dawn's light: nourish yourself with wholesome sustenance fit for long voyages, grant rest when needed like still waters offer respite amidst relentless tides and remember exercise strengthens not just limbs but also resolve.

Love:

The realm of affections can often mirror calm seas suddenly stirred into frenzy by passing gales-the kind that tests commitments much like anchors tested by stormy onslaughts.

Judiciary vs. Corporate Law

Judiciary vs. Corporate Law: Which Legal Path Should You Choose? – The Ultimate 2-in-1 Career Guide for Law Aspirants

1.  Two Roads, One Law Degree – Introduction

Choosing the right career path after earning a law degree isn’t just about earning potential or prestige. It’s about purpose, lifestyle, mindset, and long-term vision. Among all legal avenues, two options dominate the landscape for law aspirants:

Judiciary: The noble path of public service, law interpretation, and courtroom justice.

Corporate Law: The dynamic arena of deal-making, advisory, and legal risk management for businesses.

Whether you’re in law school or a fresh graduate—or even an associate lawyer considering a pivot—this guide breaks down both paths through an in-depth, point-by-point comparison.

We’ll help you answer the real question:

 Do I want to wear a judge’s robe—or a business suit?

2.  Who is a Judge? – The Pillar of Justice

In any constitutional democracy, judges are the face of justice. They are entrusted with the responsibility of upholding laws and protecting rights.

 Role of a Judge

Judges aren’t just arbiters. They’re the final voice in disputes, the interpreters of complex legal frameworks, and guardians of justice. Their roles include:

Presiding over legal proceedings: civil, criminal, constitutional

Interpreting the law and delivering binding judgments

Ensuring fair trials and upholding due process

Their decisions impact millions, from landmark rulings to small property disputes.

 Types of Judges in India

Type of Judge

Jurisdiction

Examples of Work

Civil Judge

Civil Court

Property cases, family law, consumer disputes

Criminal Judge

Criminal Court

Theft, murder, assault, bail

Appellate Judge

High/Supreme Court

Appeals, writ petitions, constitutional matters

 How to Become a Judge

Becoming a judge requires years of education, preparation, and moral integrity.

 Educational Route:

LL.B Degree (3-year or 5-year course)

Bar Council Registration

Practice for 7+ years (for higher judiciary only)

 Judicial Services Exam:

Prelims – Objective format

Mains – Descriptive answers

Interview/Viva Voce – Legal aptitude & personality test

Each Indian state conducts its own judicial services exam (e.g., RJS, MPJS, UPPCS-J).

 Powers, Responsibilities & Ethics

Judges have the power to:

Grant or deny bail

Issue warrants

Sentence a person to life imprisonment or capital punishment

Interpret laws and declare them unconstitutional (in higher courts)

But these powers come with strict ethical obligations:

Impartiality

Non-partisanship

Confidentiality

Professional discipline

 Challenges Judges Face:

Case backlogs (India has 4+ crore pending cases)

Political pressure

Limited digital infrastructure

Media scrutiny

3.  What is a Corporate Lawyer? – The Brains Behind Business Law

In contrast to judges, corporate lawyers work behind closed doors — structuring billion-dollar deals, navigating regulations, and drafting rock-solid contracts.

 Roles and Responsibilities

Corporate lawyers:

Draft and negotiate contracts

Advise on mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures

Ensure legal compliance

Manage Intellectual Property (IP)

Handle cross-border trade issues

Unlike courtroom lawyers, they focus on preventive law — solving problems before they occur.

 Promotions are based on seniority, integrity, and performance reviews.

 Timeframe: It can take 15–20 years to reach the High Court or beyond.

 Corporate Law Career Path

Associate

Senior Associate

16. FAQs – Judiciary vs. Corporate Law

Q1: Can I switch between judiciary and corporate law?

 Technically yes, but practically difficult. Corporate law doesn't prepare you for judicial exams.

Q2: Which path offers a better work-life balance?

 Judiciary is more structured and balanced.

Q3: Can average students crack judicial exams?

 Absolutely. It’s about focus, discipline, and preparation—not just grades.

Q4: Do corporate lawyers become rich?

 Many do. Especially those who make it to partner level or handle big deals.

Q5: What’s better for international opportunities?

 Corporate law wins here — global M&A, trade, and compliance open many doors.

Q6: Is courtroom litigation better than both?

 It’s a third path — very flexible, but uncertain in the beginning. It can lead to both judiciary and corporate opportunities later.

 17. Final Verdict – What Should YOU Choose?

Let’s end with the question you came here for:

 Judiciary or Corporate Law?

 Choose Judiciary if you:

Want social respect and public service

Prefer stability, structured life, and legal purity

Love constitutional law, logic, and independent thinking

 Choose Corporate Law if you:

Want wealth, speedy promotions, and global exposure

Enjoy business strategy and client interaction

Thrive in high-stakes, high-speed environments

Still unsure?

 Intern for 2 weeks — one in a courtroom and one in a corporate law firm. Nothing will teach you more than real-world experience.

The Secret Advantage of the War for Talent: How M3M Jewel's Address & Facilities Supercharge Your People

Introduction: More Than Just an Office

In this hyper-competitive business era, attracting and keeping great talent is not an HR goal – it's a strategic imperative. Great performers have options, and they're choosing to work for those employers who understand work is about more than the work station. It's about the greater setting surrounding the job. This is where M3M Jewel, located at the center of M3M Jewel MG Road in Sector 25 Gurgaon, turns out to be a game-changer. Its world-class location and international-grade facilities aren't mere add-ons; they're powerful weapons that have an impact on your recruitment success, employee engagement, and bottom-line retention percentages directly.

Beyond the Paycheck: The Holistic Employee Value Proposition

What Top Talent Truly Wants

A-players are not typically motivated by salary. Effective business leaders understand that today's professionals, especially those in high-growth professions, appreciate:

Work-Life Integration: Minimizing stress commutes and maximizing personal time.

Convenience & Accessibility: Easy access to essentials, recreation, and mobility.

Well-being: Spaces to exercise, relax, and cultivate mental wellness.

Prestige & Environment: Being in a destination that lives up to their dreams and provides an inspiring environment.

M3M Jewel: Your Strategic Partner in Talent Acquisition & Retention

1. Best Location: The Commute Destroyer & Lifestyle Center

Neighborhood to Residential Hotspots: Situated in M3M Jewel Sector 25 Gurgaon, the complex enjoys proximity to established and premium residential enclaves like DLF Phase 1, 2, 3, Sushant Lok, and Golf Course Road.

This shortens commute time considerably – a major cause of daily employee happiness and avoidance of burnout. Employees have precious hours available for family, leisure, or even relaxation. In job recruitment, selling a quick, easy drive from neighborhoods of choice is a solid recruitment advantage over rivals in more inaccessible areas.

Metro Access at Your Door: Direct entry to the Rapid Metro from the Sector 42-43 Chowk station puts the whole of NCR within easy grasp. It is priceless for staff who commute using public transport, providing peace of mind and eliminating the hassle (and expense) of driving. It also opens up your talent pool, making your retail facility in M3M Jewel MG Road accessible to applicants who live a little farther out and prefer the metro.

The MG Road Prestige: An M3M Jewel Address on MG Road carries with it inherent gravitas. It is a signal of success, ambition, and being at the very epicenter of Gurgaon's commercial and luxury belt. For high fliers, working out of such a high-end location is a dream and establishes their professional standing. It tells them that they've "made it."

2. Unparalleled Amenities: Driving Productivity & Satisfaction Every Day

This is where the M3M Jewe retail space truly shines, offering a game-changing workday experience:

Luxury Retail & F&B: Frictionless Convenience & Networking: Imagine employees walking out for a crucial client lunch at a high-end restaurant, grabbing a luxury coffee during a meeting break, or darting in to pick up an invaluable spur-of-the-moment gift – all never having to leave the building or complex.

The carefully curated retail space in M3M Jewel delivers just that. It eliminates the necessity for extensive off-site trips for errands or meetings, which increases productivity. High-quality dining facilities provide excellent venues for informal team meetups or impressing clients. Such convenience translates into a true daily benefit staff appreciate immensely.

Wellness as a Priority: Modern talent considers health a prime concern. Proximity to top-notch fitness centers, spas, and even secluded wellness zones within the complex allows employees to fit in exercise, yoga, or relaxation into their day – during morning, lunch hours, or immediately after work. This battles stress directly, improves focus, and demonstrates that the employer is concerned about well-being, hence significantly improving morale and allegiance.

Vibrant Environment: Working for a dynamic, high-end environment like the M3M jewel shopping mall is energizing in itself. The interface of premium brands, stylish customers, and exquisite architecture produces a vibrant and supportive working environment that extends far beyond the office entrance. This significantly impacts overall satisfaction with the job.

3. The Prestige Factor: Boosting Employer Brand & Retention

Having offices at M3M Jewel Sector 25 Gurgaon is not just about the address; it is about the message it sends:

Enhanced Employer Brand: Being associated with this iconic project enhances your image. It tells future hires that you are successful, invest in excellence, and are dedicated to providing your people with a world-class workplace. It matters in war-for-talent environments.

Employee Pride & Retention: Employees feel proud to be part of an organization that has a respected address like M3M Jewel MG Road. It creates loyalty and makes them want to remain. It becomes a differentiator when they are talking about their working space, making them feel closer to the organization.

Networking & Collaboration Hub: Having your business in that ideal, high-traffic retail spot in M3M Jewel naturally facilitates easy-going, spur-of-the-moment networking and potential collaborations with other businesses within the complex, an added benefit for your staff and your business.

The Tangible ROI for Your Business

Real Business Benefits from a Smart Location

Investing money on an office at M3M Jewel translates into tangible benefits:

Less Recruitment Cost: A desirable location helps to fill openings faster and more simply, introducing a higher caliber of candidate.

Less Turnover: Contented, content employees with shorter commute times and great amenities are far less likely to turnover, saving enormous costs in replacing skills.

More Productivity: Reduced commute anxiety, easy access to basics, and wellness initiatives breed more focused and refreshed employees.

Enhanced Employer Brand: Developing your employer brand as a best-in-class employer of choice attracts passive talent and improves stakeholder perception.

Competitive Differentiator: In the war for talent, offering an unbeatable location/amenity combination separates you from competitors stuck in less inspiring locations.

Maximize Your Talent Advantage at M3M Jewel

Your Strategic Workforce Solution Awaits

M3M Jewel is not just another office building; it's a total talent strategy enabler. Its unmatched M3M jewel retail location in the heart of M3M Jewel MG Road Sector 25 Gurgaon addresses employees' most basic needs today: hassle-free commutes, peerless convenience, high-end wellness options, and aspirational environments.

Effortless Hair Styling: Choosing the Right Tools for Healthier, Sleeker Looks

When it comes to transforming your hairstyle, using the best hair straightener for styling can make all the difference. Whether you're smoothing out frizz or creating sleek, runway-inspired looks, the right heat tool does more than just straighten—it protects your hair while enhancing its shine and manageability. At the same time, for those who prefer waves or curls, a curling iron for damaged hair can deliver salon-quality results without compromising the health of fragile strands.

Selecting the ideal styling tools begins with understanding your hair type and the challenges it faces. Many individuals with color-treated or naturally fine hair often struggle with heat damage, breakage, or loss of moisture. These issues are often made worse by poorly designed styling tools that apply uneven or excessive heat. That’s why it’s crucial to choose equipment that not only styles efficiently but also preserves the integrity of your hair. Using the best hair straightener for styling doesn’t just mean achieving straight locks—it also means protecting your strands from future damage.

A good straightener should come equipped with features like adjustable temperature settings, ceramic or tourmaline plates, and fast heating capabilities. These elements ensure that the heat is distributed evenly, reducing the number of passes required to straighten the hair and thus minimizing damage. Some advanced models also include ionic technology, which helps seal the hair cuticle and eliminate frizz, resulting in a polished finish that lasts all day.

Equally important is choosing the right curling iron for damaged hair. Traditional curling irons can be too harsh on brittle strands, especially if they lack proper heat control. However, newer models designed specifically for sensitive or previously damaged hair focus on combining gentle heat with cutting-edge materials. Ceramic and titanium barrels, for example, are known for their ability to heat evenly while maintaining a consistent temperature that doesn’t fry the hair. These tools often include added protections, like auto shut-off functions and multiple heat settings, giving users the confidence to style without fear of damage.

What makes a big difference in overall hair health is consistency in using high-quality products and tools. Investing in professional-grade tools might seem costly at first, but over time, they prove to be more effective and safer for your hair. One brand that continues to be trusted in the beauty industry is Crocbeauty.com, known for offering innovative and professional styling tools. With their range of high-performing straighteners and curling irons, they’ve built a reputation for tools that deliver results while caring for your hair’s natural strength and shine.

In today’s world, where styling is a daily routine for many, the importance of safeguarding hair from heat cannot be overstated. Styling should enhance, not damage, your natural hair. Whether you’re preparing for a special event or just want to feel polished for a regular workday, having the best hair straightener for styling and a curling iron for damaged hair in your toolkit makes your routine easier and more effective.

Of course, good tools must be paired with proper technique and heat-protective products. Always ensure your hair is clean, dry, and treated with a heat protectant spray before using any hot tool. This extra layer of care acts as a barrier against heat damage and enhances the final result. Frequent users should also consider giving their hair regular breaks from heat styling and nourishing it with masks and conditioning treatments.

For those seeking consistent results without compromising hair health, it’s all about quality and precision. Crocbeauty.com stands out by offering devices designed for performance and protection, helping users achieve their desired style while promoting long-term hair wellness. Whether you're straightening thick waves or curling delicate ends, the right tool can mean the difference between healthy, head-turning hair and damaged strands.

Using AI to Identify Upskilling Opportunities Within Your Team

Imagine launching a major project only to discover too late that your team lacks a key skill to execute it. It’s not that your employees aren’t capable. The issue is visibility. Without the right tools, identifying what your team doesn’t know is like spotting shadows in the dark.

That’s where AI steps in.

In today’s fast-paced, skills-first workplace, companies can no longer afford to play guessing games with workforce development. AI isn’t just a buzzword; it’s your lens into what skills are missing, evolving, or ready for growth.

The Role of AI in Workforce Development

Modern HR is being redefined by data. From performance reviews to internal mobility, artificial intelligence is transforming how we understand, evaluate, and support our people.

Here’s how:

AI scans multiple data sources such as employee profiles, training histories, and performance scores to create a living, breathing skill map.

It can predict future skill needs based on industry trends, job role changes, and company goals.

By analyzing communication, project involvement, and even collaboration patterns, AI can spot hidden capabilities or critical gaps.

With machine learning models continuously evolving, your workforce insights get sharper over time, making HR decisions smarter and faster.

How AI Detects Skill Gaps

Unlike traditional assessments or surveys, AI-powered systems can identify skill deficiencies with speed and precision.

Here’s how it works:

1. Real-Time Performance Monitoring

AI can analyze work outputs sales data, project delivery, customer feedback and flag underperformance tied to specific skills.

2. Skills Mapping

It compares current employee capabilities to the skills required for their roles, often drawing on internal job descriptions and external benchmarks like LinkedIn profiles or job market data.

3. Learning Behavior Tracking

By analyzing learning management system (LMS) usage what employees are learning, how quickly, and how successfully AI detects patterns that indicate a lack (or strength) in specific areas.

4. Feedback Analysis

AI interprets 360-degree feedback, manager notes, and engagement surveys to find gaps that aren't always quantifiable like leadership, communication, or critical thinking.

The Business Benefits of AI-Powered Skill Gap Analysis

Identifying skill gaps isn’t just an HR function—it’s a business imperative.

Here’s what AI brings to the table:

Personalized Learning Paths: Employees receive targeted training recommendations based on their current skillsets and future goals.

Faster ROI on Training: Instead of blanket courses, companies invest in focused, need-based upskilling.

Better Talent Mobility: By understanding employee potential, you can match the right people to the right roles before they even ask.

Improved Retention: Employees who see clear career development paths are more likely to stay.

Tools That Make It Possible

Many platforms are already integrating AI to close skill gaps. Think of:

LinkedIn Learning & Degreed: Recommend learning based on your career path and current skills.

Workday Skills Cloud: Analyzes workforce capabilities and predicts upskilling needs.

Eightfold.ai: Maps skills to roles and internal job mobility using AI.

💡 Want to explore how to implement this in your organization? Start by learning the fundamentals of AI in HR. 👉 Introduction to AI in HR Training – A practical course designed to help HR leaders use AI to identify skill gaps, personalize training, and build a future-ready workforce.

How to Integrate AI into Your HR Strategy

Getting started with AI in upskilling doesn’t mean overhauling your entire HR tech stack overnight.

Follow these best practices:

Start small: Pilot with one team or department.

Clean your data: AI is only as good as the data it feeds on. Ensure your employee records, training logs, and job descriptions are updated.

Stay ethical: Be transparent with employees. Use AI to support, not replace, human decision-making.

Blend AI + EQ: AI gives you the "what"—your HR team provides the "why" and "how."

Final Thoughts: AI + Upskilling = Future-Proof Teams

As industries evolve, the skills gap becomes a skills race. The companies that thrive won’t be those with the most headcount; they’ll be the ones that can continuously identify, develop, and deploy skills at scale.

Artificial intelligence is the catalyst. But the real magic happens when it’s used by forward-thinking HR leaders who prioritize learning, development, and adaptability.
