WE #10 - Attitude


I think attitude is defined by how you approach an obstacle. Whether it is work or school, a person's attitude is exemplified by how they deal with it.  The byproduct of attitude is either a smile or a frown.  I can improve in this area by better preparing myself for any event that arises.

Inspiration

I chose the video because it motivates in a very short time.  The video is simple and direct.

WE #6 - Communication


     I think communication is the effective listening and speaking of words from one person to another.  Communication is very essential, especially in the work place.  Without communication many tasks might not get done at the proper time and/or in the right way.  I believe I can improve in this area by speaking more efficiently.

WE #4 - Teamwork


I think teamwork is just what the name suggests, working in a team.  I believe teamwork means being able to participate in a group to meet a certain goal.  Each member in a team must pull his or her on weight to achieve that goal.  I can improve in this area by listening to other team member’s ideas and concerns.

Social Media Lawsuit


      A school bus driver has been fired because of Facebook.  The bus driver overheard one of the students say that “they were hungry” because they could not afford to pay to eat lunch at school.  After hearing this, the bus driver posted on to Facebook to try to gain attention that students going hungry should be given free lunch.  The school board soon found out and told the bus driver he could change his story or be fired.  The bus driver is now suing the school to change the district’s policies and get his job back.

WE #3 - Respect


      I believe respect is simply treating something or someone the way that you want to be treated.  I think respect is the driving force that creates a smile on a person’s face.  Even from a supervisor’s standpoint, there is a right way and a wrong way to get your point across.  Respect is not only directed toward people, but a person can also have respect for nature, property, and/or life.  I consider respect to be chore that must be completed everyday.
