Week 9Answer each question for the 1,2 and 3 topics.Topic 1.docxhelzerpatrina
Week 9
Answer each question for the 1,2 and 3 topics.
Topic 1
Are good workplace manners important to day? After all; if the bottom line is the goal, who cares how we get there. Are we letting rudeness, disrespect, and overall uncivil behavior become an acceptable attitude in the workplace? Think about situations you have been in whether it involve coworkers, customer service or general observations. Have you observed bad behavior?
Topic 2
The idea of a "job" has changed dramatically over the years. Some people still look at it as a lifetime career; others look at it as a stepping stone.
What does/will having a job mean to you? Money, power, prestige, comfort, pension, respect, a way to pay the rent? What do/will you expect from your employer and what are you going to give your employer in exchange for your paycheck?
Topic 3
Body art is a form of nonverbal communication and nearly 30% of American adults have one or more tattoos. What advice would you give a career-conscious, ambitious friend if they were to ask you whether you think they should display it at work?
Here are the answers from classmates for the topic please reply for each number a reply on the answer.
Topic 1
1.Good workplace manners are especially important at this day and time, as generations appear to be coming off as more and more disrespectful. While their may be a bottom line with established goals, it is still important to progress towards them with respect and strong work ethic!! This topic works me up and I can not stress enough just how important it is to have an appropriate and professional set of workplace manners. I have witnessed too much bad behavior through out my careers so far and it is all so unsettling. Personally, I do not tolerate rudeness, disrespect, and overall uncivil behavior in the workplace, it is completely unacceptable. Termination should always take place when situations like the ones being mentioned here, arise.
2.I believe good workplace manners are very important to establishing a collaborative work environment. While the prompt is correct that the end goal is what is most important, the truth is that when coworkers get along it is conducive to more productivity. When work hours are spent resolving conflicts, stewing over disputes, or simply distracted over poor manners, less work gets done. Additionally, when co-workers can communicate freely they are more likely to put their heads together and come up with creative solutions to problems and innovative ideas that can save the company money, which may not have been possible with only one person thinking in isolation. All that being said, it should be recognized that people from different backgrounds have different ideas of what is considered good manners. There are many instances where what an employee perceives as rude behavior is really just a cultural difference. I have not myself observed much bad behavior in the work place, I have been lucky to work in places where employee ...

Job Search Survival Kit -- OK School's Out, Now What --Anthony Hines
This presentation will give some tips to the recently graduated college student who is about to enter the workforce. It will focus on the skills and networking ability that have already been created and show the reader how to proceed in the job search process.
Who Am I….I am a hardworking guy who, like many others, found himself out of work during the economic downturn in 2010. After a long battle of wrong turns, job search strategies that led to no where, and dead end leads, I decided to take a more strategic approach to my job search. Like anything else in life, I needed to treat my search like a full-time job and create a plan that would allow me to stand out above the competition. This came in especially handy as I was in transition again in 2017. Basically, I just used the tips that I have shared with others and was out of work a total of ZERO days. Yes, I got a job offer the day after my last day at my previous job. Let me show you how I did it so you too can have a quicker landing than you would have had without my tips.
Why Am I Sharing What Helped Me…because I quickly realized that to handle an event like that is to focus on what you can control and share the experience to help others. I believe that an experience not shared is a lost opportunity in life, and that smart people learn from their mistakes and smarter people learn from other people’s experiences. Plus, I told myself that once I figured this out I would share it with others so that they too could navigate the world of unemployment. In these chapters, I show you how I did it so that you will have the confidence to make it through the process. I hope that this presentation helps you to get your next great job.

Why start independent distributor jobs from home? Steve Jackson
Learn More: https://distributor-jobs-from-home.essentialmart.org/
More people than every are searching for online part time jobs from home and more so they are looking for things to sell to make money fast
It is all well and good starting a home based career but the biggest issue for all of us, including myself, is "what can I sell to make money now?" Of course, it is right and proper to consider the long-term aspect of any business venture, but surely we want to make money now and not in some abstract future, which to be honest, may or may not arrive. We are living and breathing today, so we want to earn money today while working for the future.
Most home based business do cater for this situation, because it is fully understandable that nobody wants to wait maybe six months until they can earn some money. So, as a taster to whats to come, becoming a distributor will give you the opportunity to make money from day one via retail sales.
With millions of people still out there looking for a job, there is no doubt that competition among job seekers is tense. On the part of hiring managers, they don’t want to waste their time reading the application letters of those with resumes that don’t seem to stand out from the rest.

interview. You can reach my cell phone at (806) 576-6044 and I am available
everyday till about 4 pm. Thank you for your time.

4. Reflection Paper
The career that I choseto interview about is a Business Owner. I would
someday like to own my own restaurant and serve the bestfood in town. I have
worked in a restaurant for most of my life and cannot see myself doing anything else.
When researching my career choice online I learned that most of restaurants
fail within the first couple years of owning them. Even if they have a great theme
and food, it can all come down to just good advertisement. If no one knows where
your place is at, or what you serve, then how will they know that place even exists? I
also learned that there is a lot of pressure that the owners go through. From having to
deal with incompetent employees, to having to be hands on the job, there is a lot of
stress that the owner goes through. Being a good owner is not all about being able to
tell someone what to do but it is more about being able to do it with them. There is a
difference between managing and leading. There is a higher percentage of business
being able to become something if the owner is apart of the process instead of just
watching what happens. Some of the necessary skills include: being able to take
risks, self confident, good at speaking, a leader, being able to budget and knowing
personal finance, and hard working.
The name of the personI interviewed is Danny Lee. He is the co-owner of the
Big Texan Steak Ranch in Amarillo, Texas. The business has been around for over
60 years and continues to grow every year. I thought this would be a great personto
5. really help me understand my career. He has been doing his job for over 20 years
and sees himself continuing to do so for another 20. His interview has helped me
understand what it is going to take in order for me to become successfuland make
something of myself.
I learned that owning a business is like taking care of a child. Even though you
are doing everything right, there is always someone who wants to be above the rules
or do something different. The job can be rewarding, but sometimes you just have to
motivate yourself to wake up in the morning and make the business better and better
everyday. I also learned that you cannot stand still in this kind of career because the
industry is always changing and you need to keep up with the times. Everyday
Danny is trying something new or trying to think of how something could be
different and more efficient. He said that the main importance of the business is
making the customer happy, and trying to find a new customer base is really
expensive so to focus on trying to get the same customers to come back. He said that
one of the main problems he faces is when one of his servers has had a bad day so
they do not wait on the customer professionally. This causes the customer to not
want to come back even when the food is good and the atmosphere is so enjoyable.
He deals with that kind of stuff on a daily basis. He doesn’treally want to change
anything in his pastbecause it has led him to where he is today and having the same
mindset as he does now.
6. What really surprised me is how involved you have to be in order to keep the
business running smoothly. Even though you can take off as much time as you want,
you really do need to be there six days of the week to make sure everything is
running right. One thing that I noticed that I did not like about the career choice is
that if anything happens to someone on your property that you would have to pay for
their bills. It just seems like someone could take advantage of that and “accidently”
fall or something similar. I know there is insurance for these kind of things but
having to deal with that could really wear on you. One thing that working in a
restaurant for most of my life has shown me is my assests align with what a
restaurant needs. I am self-confident and can motivate myself. I love working with
people and I like relying on myself to get a job done. I also work well in groups and
love working with customers. Their priority is my priority and there is just
something about that that I cannot find somewhere else. From my online research
and my interview, I have learned more about the job. This is definitely still a career
choice and has only made me more confident in deciding if this job is for me. I
cannot see myself doing anything else and cannot wait till I fulfill my long-term goal
of becoming one. I now that there are some negative aspects aboutthe job, but right
now I can work at them in order to become better at dealing with these things. I need
to learn more about budgeting and investing. I also need to learn more about
business law. I can learn most of these things through getting my Bachelor’s Degree.
7. For the things that I do not fully learn, I can read books and continue to learn outside
of my college career. I also need to learn more about how to cookfood differently
with more unique tastes. I can learn this in culinary classes or find someone through
a professional job website, and team up with them. This could help take off some of
the stress that I could feel and just focus on employees and customers.
