...When it comes to media I am not as in tune as I probably should be when it comes to new and things like that, but I do like to watch the new if I am up early in the morning, or right before I go to bed. The things that I care about the most when watching the news is the weather, the next is how many stupid people we actually have in the world, by that I mean people who are out there ruining the lives of themselves and the lives of others, I also listen to the radio and read the new paper. When I read the newspaper I am usually only looking for pets or a new place to move. I am not sure if it would be more focused toward media or not and if not then I am guessing that it would be more representative, I am not one for being into the media to much unless it involves the internet, that is where I spend 90% of my time if I am not working. I watch a lot of YouTube and spend a lot of time using social media if I am unable to have that then I feel like my life would not be the same. I live for Facebook and snap chat. I am not sure what else I could say about media at this point except that I like to watch a lot of movies and TV in my spare time that is if I am able to get any. But I try not to spend a lot of my time in front of a TV so my children don’t grow up in front on one. I want them to know that there is more to life then TV and social...

With that in mind, the decision whether to take on temporary workers in lieu of hiring permanent employees is a decision that involves significant risk. However, real options theory offers managers the ability to consider irreversibility and to make workforce investment decisions under conditions of minimum uncertainty and maximum flexibility. We present real options theory within our organization analyzing both sides temporary and permanent hiring to yield maximum profit considering implicit and explicit factors and economic risks. Introduction The cost of production, inventory and sells means money expenses incurred by a firm on production of a commodity but in economics sum of explicit costs and implicit costs constitutes total cost of production of a commodity. We have seen that human are satisfied by way of goods and services which are sold by firms, respectfully. For selling a commodity, a firm requires factor inputs and non factor inputs. The money spent by the firm on both factor inputs and non factor inputs is called money cost. In economics money expenses alone do not provide a solid result in increased profits.

Companies are constantly facing some of the most demanding situations due to challenging times of our economic society. No decision is an easy one to make however; these choices have to be made in order to maintain a steady flow of resources and incomes.

...not performing the duties for which employees are hired, because when work is not completed in a timely manner, it ultimately costs the company and shows a weakness in leadership within the company for tolerating it. This is unacceptable. As stated in this case study, Carl Robins had only Worked for ABC Inc. for six months and performed well in his first recruitment effort to hire 15 new trainees for Monica Carrolls, the Operations Supervisor, and his boss. This took place in April and his new hires were to start orientation on June 15th. This should have been enough time for Carl to take care of the new hires’ paperwork and arrange for training so that they could begin working in July. Ms. Carrolls did not talk to Carl about everything that needed to be accomplished until May 15th. This should have been more of a concern to Ms. Carrolls because after all, these new employees are to work for her. She should have also wanted to see progress from Carl, not just his assurance that it would be completed. In the week following Memorial Day, Carl finally decided to finalize the paperwork for the new trainees. At that time, Carl discovered that many essential items were...
