Man cut in half by forklift begged doctor to save him even if he was just a head
A man who was sliced in half by a forklift told his family to keep him alive even if he was just a "head on a plate." Loren Schauers, 20, was working in the forklift on a bridge when he plummeted 50ft , severing his arm and crushing his lower body in September 2019. His family were left with the devastating decision of whether to ask doctors to save him by cutting him in half and risking Loren wishing they hadn't. But when the construction worker was later able to speak for himself, he looked doctors "dead in the eye" and asked for the lifesaving op.

Southeastern trains boss: ‘From £2bn in red we’re now £200m in the black’
When one of the most influential voices on the railways attacked Southeastern’s services as “sh*t, awful”, and “like the wild west” in 2015, boss David Statham’s first thought was not for the 675,000 people that use his trains each day; but for his staff. Sir Peter Hendy, the then Transport for London chief and current Network Rail chairman, hadn’t pulled his punches in an interview with Management Today . He continued: “Every now and then some people who look like the Gestapo get on and fine everyone they can. It doesn’t improve your day, does it?” Four years later and the remarks are still a sore point. “We’ve got 4,500 people; they do all sorts of jobs every single day. It was really important that those people know that we value them,” he says. “It was important to reassure our people that we cared about them.” As managing director of Southeastern, Statham is in charge of one of Britain’s biggest rail franchises, running more than 2,000 services a day from Kent and … [Read more...] about Southeastern trains boss: ‘From £2bn in red we’re now £200m in the black’

How to actually switch off and relax after work
We need to get better at separating our personal lives and work lives. But it’s easier said than done. Since the first lockdown in March 2020, working from home has been on the rise. While some people will have returned to the office, hustle culture and toxic productivity have allowed work to creep in and take over a lot of our personal lives. Research found that UK workers have increased their working week on average by 25%, partly because the usually daily commute has been replaced by extra hours sat in front of a laptop screen. With social media apps such as Linkedin and work emails on all our mobiles, it’s hard to create boundaries. It can be tempting to click on the notification when you are relaxing on your phone. 58% of employees have been using their personal devices for work since the start of the pandemic. You might think it’s OK because you weren’t ‘busy’ anyway, but if you start allowing your work life into the rest of your life, you will begin to … [Read more...] about How to actually switch off and relax after work
