Mandatory friends?


So the question is "Do you have to be friends with you co-workers?", and my answer is no you do not have to be friends with your co-workers. There's always that one person you just can't stand in your class and normally you ignore them and act like they don't exist, well it doesn't really work like that in a workplace. I'm not saying you have to be all buddy buddy with them I'm just saying you can't act like there invisible. Just simply talk to them when you have to. What I would do is only talk to them if I have a question or if they need to talk to me about something about work. Try to be as professionally as you can during work and after you can act like they're invisible like you would in school. If it doesn't have to do with work then you don't have to talk to them. All you have to do is if they try to talk to you about something that doesn't involve your job then politely tell them, "With all due respect if it's not about work then Please keep it to yourself.".

Ethics in Your Life


I personally do not think it is ok for employees to take things from their workplace. People now a days actually do that but it's not ok. If an employee takes something from work without permission someone else who works there can get in trouble. Alot of places keep count of all the items they sell and if one items missing, the item the employee took home, and they for sure know it didn't get sold then someone's going to get in trouble or worse fired. If the employee needs something from their workplace for some reason really bad than it wouldn't hurt to ask if they can have it. If the boss/owner says no well then just respect their wishes. Don't go around taking things that don't belong to you and that you didn't pay for, It's common sense.

Blog #3 Interesting Words

Interesting Words

    There are many interesting words in the English language. I personally think homophones are pretty interesting. “A homophone is a word that sounds the same as another word but has a different meaning and/or spelling. “Flower” and “flour” are homophones because they are pronounced the same but you certainly can’t bake a cake using daffodils.” (Vocabulary.com) Ever since I first learned about homophones when I was younger they have always been interesting to me. Kids would always be confused when trying to understand what the teacher was trying to say about homophones but I never was. I loved the little worksheets my english teacher would give my class in grade school. I always had a fun time doing those worksheets. Sadly I don’t really use homophones a lot but occasionally they come up whenever I’m writing a long essay.

Blog #2 My Writing Challenge

    My Writing Challenge


    The only writing challenge I know I have had was recently was in my Communication Tech. class. Our assignment was to write a four page essay on an entrepreneur. Everyone thought it was easy, I don’t know why it was so difficult for me. The hard part of it for me was finding all the information on my entrepreneur and stretching it onto four pages. I wanted all the information on my entrepreneur to be written in order of his life from birth to now but it was hard to organize it all and make sense at the same time. I got all the information I could and tried to make it into an essay. I was worried it wasn’t going to make sense, but once people started editing my essay it got easier for me because I had help from those editing my paper telling me how to make it better. It was difficult for me to do but I never gave up.
