What trivial knowledge might save your life one day?

 

  • Don’t walk downstairs with your hands in your pockets—it’s dangerous if you trip.
  • If your drink at a party tastes salty, stop drinking it immediately—it could be spiked with something like Rohypnol.
  • If a power line falls nearby, don’t walk or run away. Keep your feet together and hop like a bunny to get to safety.
  • If the waterline at the beach pulls far away from the shore, a tsunami might be coming.
  • If someone’s pupils aren’t the same size, it could be a sign of brain damage.
  • Don’t leave ice packs on injuries for more than 15 minutes—it can cause nerve damage.
  • A gray ring around the edge of your eye could mean high cholesterol.
  • Leaving a clear water bottle in your car can cause a fire if sunlight hits it.
  • If a dog (or animal) won’t stop misbehaving, a quick poke to its bum can stop it.
  • Baking soda can put out any type of fire, including grease and electrical fires.
  • Losing weight without trying might be a sign of cancer.
  • If a man pees on a pregnancy test and it’s positive, it could indicate testicular cancer—get checked.
  • If your car breaks down, don’t stand in front of it while waiting for help—it’s dangerous.
  • Super glue can be used to temporarily close a wound in an emergency.
  • Never work under a car that’s just on a jack—always use jack stands or a lift.

I have 3 offers, HCL (19), PWC (20), and Deloitte (21). Which one should I join considering work-life balance as I have a 6-month-old kid to manage?

Deloitte works you harder than most companies. Working 12–14 hours a day is normal, and it's common to stay up until 3–4 am regularly.
