Interesting fact? On one hand you can count off the numbers from 1 to 12 by touching the joints of your fingers with your thumb. If you’ve ever travelled around Asian or Arab nations you’ll probably have seen this. I’ve lost focus in many a good barter watching this, but its unlikely to have cost me more than a few dirham! There are many good arguments for counting in twelves rather than in tens. Making the most of the twelve joints on the fingers of one hand is just one of them. Other things about the number twelve: 3 + 4 + 5; a dozen, but not a baker’s dozen; twelve months in a year; twelve inches in a foot; twelve old pennies in a shilling; twelve signs of the Zodiac; twelve apostles; twelve people in a jury; 12 o’clock is midday or midnight, neither am nor pm; 12pt is the font size most people write it, but probably not you if you’re a creative.

HR lovies love it

the idea came about because creatives have better things to do with their Sunday afternoons than dig around in timesheets and spreadsheets working out what was going on. It appears that creatives are not alone here.

A very happy early client is a HR consultancy, who loves having access to info that simply didn’t exist before. Enjoy your Sunday!
