The luggage concierge at the airport is the person who checks your luggage, whether there's a fee associated with that or you're riding on an airline that includes checked bags. Now, if you're like me and you travel with all of your clothes rolled in a backpack, you might not see the utility in this position, but that's not true for all travelers, especially travelers traveling across large distances. If you're carrying tons of bags, and especially bags with delicate articles in them like guns or medical equipment, a luggage concierge is invaluable, and that's where the money comes in.
A luggage concierge may not make a great hourly rate, however, what they don't make hourly they can make up for in tips. This may seem like a ludicrous idea, but when you consider people who are flying with specific requests, you can see where tipping comes in. Luggage Concierge's can make between $75,000 to $100,000 in tips per year.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
