Top Floor, PLEASE!!!

Just because you do not have a college degree that does not mean you can not succeed in life. That does not mean you can’t get a good job. Many employers do not jus hire people who have an education but they like to hire people who have worked there. The people who have worked there are good candidates for a managers position because they know or have an idea how to run the place because of experience. They know business and how things should be. So they hired people who have knowledge on who can run the company.
In this article many of the managers and supervisors today were not always management when they first started that job. Many started as clerks and they worked their way up to management. They worked hard and did what was expected of them. They also went to extra mile and did more than they had too.

A Growing Field

Having an occupation such as a farmer can be a lot of work. You work all day to keep your farm maintained. An organic farmer such as Christian works pretty much all day from sunrise to sunset. He grows only organic plants and he sells them to a farmers market. All of his plants are organic he doesn’t use any type of chemical and he grows everything by hand. Christian also makes his own organic soaps. He uses the dried remaining of the flowers he grows and he uses them to make soaps.

Most farmers do not consider running a farm a job but it is jus part of their daily lives.

Navigating the College Fair

A college fair is a place where colleges come to answer questions and give out information about their schools or institutes. Attending a college fair is a good idea if you are unsure about a college and you want to get personal information about it or if you are still unsure about a college you can look at all the opportunities that are available. Many of the representatives are eager to see and hear what you are interested in. they are the ones that persuade you to attend there institute or school. When you attend a college fair you go to look into potential colleges or institute you will be attending, there are many colleges at college fairs and you really have a lot of time to look at every college booth. Therefore it would be best if you made out a list that you are interested in and visit those booths first. Ask questions that will benefit and help you. Catch the representative’s attention. You will be asked to fill out a lot of information cards so be prepared and get your information accurate.

YOU ARE WHAT YOU E-MAIL...

When people interact with others threw text messages or e-mails, and IM’s they tend to write as if the English language had never been invented! They use abbreviations for almost every word, and signs. Not a formal type of writing.
Although this may be an easy and faster way for you to get your message across, this could also be a bad habit
in other environments. While people write in their emails or letters they tend to convert their IM language to letters or
writings where it would be very unnecessary. Business letters for example are an inappropriate place for the writing. If you were to write like that the person whom you are writing to might not take you seriously.
There are a few tips that would help with sending a respectfully and correct form of email: when putting your subject into your subject line, make it so it will catch the reader’s attention. Put the main point of your letter in as your subject.
When some people read letters or messages they don’t read the whole message so to get your message across,
put your main subjects into the opening or beginning paragraphs of your writing.
In your writing keep it formal. If it’s a business letter stick to a business form.
When writing the letter uses proper English. Use proper spelling, grammer, punctuation, and complete sentences.
As soon as you have completed writing the message you should re read it so it sounds ok or have another person proof read it for you.
Adding a signature to the end of your letters would make it sound like you are serious about it and it would be professional. Signature could consist of your name, e-mail address, phone number, or an address.
When you receive e-mails that are important respond to them as soon as possible. If you are unsure about a response to the mail flag the e-mail so you can respond as soon as you are able to give a response.
When sending e-mails that contain many different types of subjects the best thing to do would be to send each topic as a complete new letter. That way the reader does not have a lot different subjects to read about
and they won’t miss any important details.

CARING FOR THE BIG GUYS

There are many types of animal veterinarians. One particular type would be the type that attends to large animals such as horses, elephants, giraffes, etc. although they try and help these animals it is a difficult job. They have to watch everything they do as well as the animal. Just because an animal looks to be under control they still find a way to fight back.
A typical day of a veterinarian would be: first appointments then attend to other animals. Attending to the animals would include giving vaccinations, tending to wounds, diagnosing diseases, treating sick animals, and help with difficult births. Most people tend to become veterinarians because they love to work with animals and would like to help them with whatever attention is needed.
Veterinarians don’t jus attend to animals such as livestock but they also attend to the wild animals or indigenous. Veterinarian jobs have slowly started to decrease. Now there is a need of large animal veterinarians. Most vets would rather work with smaller animals for their safety. Large vet animals are the highest paid vets in the veterinarian business. There really aren’t a lot of jobs available to vets. Many people apply and go to school for the occupation but most don’t always get jobs. Most people are afraid to work with large animals because of the safety issues.

FACE-OFF!

With Election Day coming up, the decision on electing the new president is getting in peoples heads. Some are still unsure on who they will be voting for. This 2008 election seems to be one of the most important elections in history, due to the fact that the United States is not in a good economic and environmental situation. Three of the most important subjects of this election are: the economy, the war in Iraq, and energy. Both candidates have different forms of solutions or plans for each of these problems.
The United States is in debt by so many billions. People are not able to pay for loans due to the high expenses on living. McCain’s approach would to lower the government and business taxes. There for giving businesses the opportunity to hire more people so they would make money. Obama plans on lower the tax rates so we would not have to pay so much, so people would buy more from businesses, so they could make money.
The issue on the Iraq war is difficult. Obama want to pull troops out as soon as possible
because having them out there is unsafe and also it is costing the u.s. billions of dollars. McCain’s plan on keeping troops there till Iraq’s government is strong enough to defend its self.
Both candidates believe in renewable resources. As for the situation on gas they have to different ideas. Obama want to uses alternative source of gas. He believes drilling will only temporarily solve the situation. McCain want to start drilling for oil as soon as possible.
Who know what approach either candidates take but its up to you to speak up and vote for who you think would be able to run the future of the United states.

Fly High

You can make piloting a fun experience and skill but you can also turn it into a career. Used this skill to make something of your future. Pilots are used to transport cargo and packages when ever they are needed. They can also fight fires and be used on rescue missions. To become a pilot you need training and experience.
Captain Gary Robinson inspired a young boy named Barrington Irving to become a pilot. He let the young boy visit him on his base and let him help out around the base so he could get a feel on what they do there. Barrington wanted to go to flight school so he cleaned the planes to make money to pay for his classes and he would also do it to get free lessons. Now he is a successful pilot earning his pilot licenses as a Private Pilot, Commercial Pilot, and a Flight Constructor. He is now expiring younger adults and children to become pilots. He put together an organization which provides flight experiences to potential pilots.
Captain Heather Ross has a unique piloting job. She tests the planes before they are used to transport cargo and people. She gets to fly many types of planes unlike regular pilots who fly just one type of plane.
