    It's ok to work on the 4th/x4th floor, too. Maybe it's less desireable, but it's ok. Living there, not so much.
    I got a great flat on the 4th floor in Tokyo with a great floorplan, view, price. It would not have been available I think if it weren't on the 4th floor so I was glad to get it. Coworker got married in Japan on an unlucky day for half price (literally) of a lucky day. Sometimes, it's good to ignore the number things...

    Amazon got registered as a business on unlucky day according to lunar calendar. Despite that Jeff Bezos has become the richest man in the world.

    I give 50 to all of the street cleaners on Peng Chau and to a street cleaner on my way to the ferry. Then I gave two weeks of pay in a red pocket to my weekly cleaner. I absolutely believe more people should be giving to the street cleaners. My coworkers think I am nuts.

    I have a several group admins that don't do much for me other than helping to mail in expense reports - they don't organise my diary or help me with reservations, etc. However they are full service for my bosses so I rely on them to get on their diaries.

    What would be appropriate for them?
