To busk can mean to not have a clear plan and to make decisions while events are already in progress. We can also use, play something by ear, improvise, decide in real time, and decide on the fly to mean a similar thing. I hope you enjoy the podcast!

In today's fast-paced and competitive job market, finding the right talent is essential for any organization's success. While evaluating a candidate's skills, qualifications, and experience is important, it is equally important for HR managers to evaluate cultural fit. 

Cultural fit is the degree to which a candidate's values, work style, and personality align with the culture and values of the organization.

HR managers evaluate cultural fit because it can have a significant impact on a candidate's job performance, job satisfaction, and overall success in the role. 

When a candidate fits in with the organization's culture, they are more likely to be engaged, motivated, and committed to their work. This can lead to better performance, increased productivity, and a positive impact on the organization's bottom line.

Cultural fit also promotes a positive work environment, where employees feel comfortable, supported, and valued. When employees share common values and work styles, they are more likely to collaborate effectively and work together towards common goals. 

This can create a sense of unity and team spirit, which can boost morale and lead to a more positive work culture.

In conclusion, evaluating cultural fit is an important part of the hiring process. HR managers must carefully evaluate a candidate's values, work style, and personality to determine whether they will fit in with the organization's culture. This can help to foster a positive work environment, increase employee engagement and productivity, and ultimately contribute to the organization's success.

How do HR managers evaluate 'cultural fit'

Pizza is one of the world's most popular fast foods. It's believed that over 5 billion pizzas are sold around the world every year. In the US alone, people buy about 3 billion pizzas each year, which is about 46 slices per person!

But it wasn't always as popular as it is today — in fact, it used to be looked down on, even by Italians!

The modern pizza we know today started in Naples, Italy, in the 18th century. Poor people in the city needed cheap food that was easy to eat as they looked for work. Street vendors sold them pizzas with simple toppings like garlic and tomatoes.

For a long time, pizza was looked down on as food for the poor, and visitors to Naples thought it was dirty and unappealing.

But this changed in 1889, when Queen Margherita of Italy tried pizza and loved it. The pizza with tomatoes, mozzarella and basil was named after her, and pizza started to become a national dish in Italy.

Pizza became a favorite in the US after Italian immigrants brought it with them. It became especially popular in cities like New York, and new styles like Chicago deep dish and Hawaiian were invented.

And it became even more popular with the invention of frozen pizza, which let people make their own pizzas at home.

Today, pizza is enjoyed around the world, with many different toppings and styles. But its basic form hasn't changed very much from all those years ago.

From Poverty to Popularity: The History of Pizza

Poesia in cui Frida Kahlo (1907 - 1954), poliedrica poetessa e pittrice messicana, riflette sul valore della vita, una vita che, nonostante la grande sofferenza fisica e mentale che le ha causato, non ha mai smesso di amare.

"Di Struggente Bellezza"

Ho smesso di contare le volte in cui,
arrivata alla seconda riga,
ho cancellato e riscritto tutto nuovamente.
Cercavo un inizio ad effetto,
qualcosa di poetico e vero allo stesso tempo,
qualcosa di grandioso, ma agli occhi.

Non ci sono riuscita.
Poi ho capito,
ricordando ciò che non avevo mai saputo:
che per i grandi cuori
che muoiono nel corpo
ma che continuano a battere nel respiro della notte,
non ci sono canoni o bellezze regolari,
armonie esteriori,
ma tuoni e temporali devastanti
che portano ad illuminare un fiore,
nascosto,
di struggente bellezza.
