whiskey glass on the right !

I had long back created this blog but had never actually cared to blog. This was a friend's idea. Too many things keep happening to me, she says, and she always jokes that someone should write a book about it. She also has some titles for the book: What Jumi Lost Today or Jumi Did It Again. And then, one day she told me that atleast I should blog about it. I liked the mad idea and created this blog but had since then, always ignored it. Today I have decided to change it.

But this blog will be not just about what I lost, but also about what I have found in my way. Today, I found a little piece of knowledge. Its a small tiny fact, but knowing it has made me happy. So, here it is :)

This will be a short blog. I was working on finding the right image for a website we are creating. I work in the alcohol industry. And today I learnt that most images that carry whiskey glass has the image in the right hand side.

I am blogging about this because I have spent the whole day trying to find the right image; I have been coordinating with my agencies since morning, asking them to integrate multiple images into one  - all to find the perfect image for the website, and throughout I have been thinking - what a waste of time. And then, after working for almost 4 years in the industry, I discover that a whiskey glass shot is always (80% of the time) on the right hand side!

A small thing to learn, but also a small thing to not know. And suddenly I remember what my mother often says: if you do something diligently,  you will always learn something new from it. And today, this has come true, like it had come true so many times earlier. My mom also says that, what you learn today, will help you someday in future. Today I know that a whiskey glass shot is almost always on the right; how it will help me in the future, I yet have to discover. And then I will blog about it too :)
