...Individuals are defined in several different ways such as neat or sloppy, but the word neat or sloppy may have numerous diverse meanings to others. Suzanne Britt, the author of “Neat People vs. Sloppy People,” used a direct tone to favor messy people. She also defined two individuals in today’s society by the way they keep their environments hygienic. Britt mainly focused on explaining how neat people are really sloppy and how sloppy people are really neat in their own ways. She wanted her readers to learn not to be as uptight in their lives and increase time for friends and family. In contrast to Britt, Dave Barry, the author of “Batting Clean-Up and Striking Out,” used a humorous tone in his article to exemplify how men and women have different...

...I have wondered before if I will have the chance to see the real beauty of life that I can’t find here in the busy city. But at last, after almost two hours of travel, I have seen what I am looking for; the clean river, the cold breeze, the leafy trees and the welcoming smiles of the Bago tribe, such an amazing treasures behind the mountains. Maybe it is the treasure in the end of every rainbow I see. For the pot of gold lie in the hearts of the tribe, their culture resides in the hearts and in the soul of the people. Despite of the developing municipality of Suyo, their culture remained; it is not damaged by the changes. They made sure that their culture will not die by letting the children learn in mind and heart their wonderful culture. The smiles in faces of the children showed that they really love what they are learning. It is soothing to the ears to hear their angelic voices; their ethnic dances made me forget the contemporary dances and how they beat their bamboo instruments made me feel the magic of nature. Even if I cannot understand what they are singing, I felt that they sing to show how proud they are to be part of the Bago tribe and to be thankful of all the blessings that God had given them. They gave thanks that day through a ritual, and a pig was butchered that I think is a sign of their respect and belief to the Lord. Every song they have sung reflected how they live their life in the past and now. I am amazed how they used bamboo cylinders as water containers...

...Sean Pack BUS 101 OCA Donatos Pizza 1. We decided to use a total of 3 employees for cooks in the kitchen at Donatos. The number of 3 would not only help us with making orders, but also with the clean duties after the rush hours. In the year or so, HR will extend our cook employees to 4 per shift for better efficiency. 2. As a Pizza/ Fast Food chain, yes we do compete for employees. We feel that the atmosphere, our salaries and benefits, interest our potential employees more than our competition. 3. After a year of being with us, we sit down with the other managers and grade an employee’s performance on a scale of 1-10. The next day we call in the employee, and let him know how he/she did last year, and how he/she can do better in the coming year. 4. First we look internally. If there isn’t an employee that fits the criteria for that particular position, we check our other stores that are close by. If all else fails, then we advertise employment. 5. Yes. Donatos wants every piece of diversity it can muster. We believe that different people bring different ideas that can help this company grow and be more successful. We do not discriminate against any race, background, or family history. Everyone has a fair chance to be a part of the Donatos family. 6. We would sit down with that employee, and try to understand his reasoning, if we can’t come to an agreement; he/she would be moved to either a different dept. of a new store entirely...

...thought triggered me to ask myself, “What would be my ideal summer vacation looks like?” To start my visualization, I would like to spend it in a place afar from the noisy streets of the city. A place where the only sounds I can hear are the chirping of the birds, the waves crashing on the shore and the laughter of my family. In that place, the trees are dancing gracefully and flowers are waving gently with the wind. In the distance, the shore is filled with sand so white, crystal clear water and with porpoises on the sea side. On the top of the hill resides our home, a small bungalow type but filled with so much contentment and joy. Inside of it are simple things to suffice our needs. Upon entering the entrance door, you will see the clean and tidy living room, with a window on the right that offers a beautiful sight of the blue ocean. Beside our home, there stood a tall and old narra tree that gives us shade during the day. Flowers of different kinds and varieties grows around the yard abundantly. Then, I can see the endless sky above with shiny shimmering stars blinking at night and in the water, it seems the unreachable stars are within my grasp. In a distance, I can see the fire keeps burning from the bonfire we have made, and beside it, sitting my loved ones with a happy face. Generally, my summer vacation would be an ideal one, even though I may not have those picturesque sceneries, what matters most will be the tranquility I have when I am with my...

...potential buyers (global market) • Large number of potential competitors. World Coal Institute estimates that recoverable coal reserves are in more than 70 countries and supply will last approximately 155 years (World Coal Institute: 2007). • Large number of current competitors. Each competitor sells a perfect substitute for Wesfarmers coal. • There is no price regulation in the coal industry. According to Earl and Wakeley (2005: 227), these characteristics would make Wesfarmers a price-taking firm which has no control of the price it charges for coal. It has to accept the price determined by market forces. This report will address the challenges facing Wesfarmers from the perspective of growth and diversity and implementation of clean coal technology. The report will also attempt to provide potential solutions. Figure A: Wesfarmers coal interests and overall coal type distribution. Source: Australian Coal...

...Friday which did not get done. Some of you cleanup your desk but the common area still remain unclean. As you all know, the common area is used by all, so this coming Friday we will all try this again. In the fiscal year budget there was not much funds allocated custodial maintenance. With that being said if everyone would clean up after himself or herself it would make things a lot more easer for everyone. The targeted areas to be cleaned are as follows: 1. The copy machine area:- We should make sure that the waste baskets are empted out. Also make sure that supplies are neatly organized on the shelves. 2. The lunch room:- Counters need to be wipe down after use The refrigerator need to also be kept clean any food item left in there over the weekend should be thrown out on Monday morning. The sinks and coffee machine should also be wiped down after every use. And last but not least the office shelves should be reorganized at the end of every work day. I don’t to implement a cleaning schedule but would like for everyone to come together as a team and work together in the keeping our work area and our common area clean and making it comfortable to work in. The memo was very effective and had a professional and polite tone where I took my readers into consideration. This causes my message to be much more effective by tailoring it towards my audience to effectively reach them. The potential barriers to the successful communication of...

...Name Instructor Course Date Challenge idea My love for a clean environment has made me join several volunteering environmental cleanup programs as well as clubs pursuing the cause of a beautiful ecosystem. The motivation for maintaining the integrity and assuming the responsibility of taking leadership is the perfect reason that encourages me to get involved in community clean up. When I considered the challenge, the activity that came into my mind was to organize a 3-hour community clean up around our area. Through this activity, I would be able to interact with my community members directly and help the community realize the benefits that come along with a clean environment. A healthy environment does improve the physical neighborhood. Besides, it creates opportunities for individual investment, social fellowship and pride to the people in the neighborhood. It will not only create a nice place to dwell but also portrays a better landscape for professionals, prospective employers, and other community visitors by providing the best health benefits. A clean-up process begins with proper organizing and planning of the program. I can only manage through identifying key stakeholders (through stakeholder identification process) to form my committee. The 3-hour process will involve organizational representatives, businesses, and individuals who I will invite including city representatives, the city council, and the local media. Since community improvement involves private and public...
