The expedition was no place for quitters, which is why the captains both picked specific people to perform this insane task. Ambrose’s work definitely opened my eyes to see what an undertaking it was for that time period, Lewis spent months just planning out the whole thing, and as the expedition began there were many problems encountered, but he was stubborn enough to push through them and carry out one of the greatest expeditions in U.S. history. I think its amazing what this group of mostly strangers was able to pull off, considering the times and the limited technology, this feat thought to be impossible by nearly everyone. After not hearing from the expedition for almost 2 years it was thought they were all dead, or lost in the wilderness, but on their return in September 1806, everyone on the expedition is considered a
Corporals and Sergeants were usually the ones leading the Marines into combat any task needed to be done a Marine Corps NCO would make sure it was completed quick fast and in a hurry and of course done right, a tradition that is still carried on today. [x] Marine NCOs have had different roles throughout the years and through many conflicts such as the Cuba Campaign, the Philippine Insurrection, and The Boxer Rebellion. I am a firm believer that if we hadn’t had NCOs throughout the years then most of the battles we endured then we may not have come out the
Stephenie Stevenson Christine Warrington ENG 202 NA 5 November 2013 The story Metamorphosis, demonstrates how we allow every day life to over take us to the point that we change into something that we are unable to identify. Gregror did everything for everyone, but nothing for himself. He didn’t enjoy life because he was too busy working at a job that he hated in order to pay off his parents debts and to take care of the household; while they did nothing to help or to show him any appreciation. This story also show how one can give their all and when they are in need of help those that he or she helped along the way will turn their backs with no regard to you. While I was reading, “Metamorphosis”, it made me view life in a different way, and made me come to a decision of taking time out for myself in order to enjoy every essence of being me, and not neglect myself.
With technology that runs the life’s of millions, and the constant need to obtain anything and everything without a price, Lao-Tzu would hang his head in shock at the life we have grown so quick to know. There are places in the government and in the life of today that Lao-Tzu would think inadequate for living; however, we must look at what in our life meets his guidelines as well. Modern American society is not perfect. The ways of the world have changed since 6th century BC and life has become much more complicated all the while striving to make things simpler. The way technology has driven the last half of a century has changed life astronomically.
One of the many reasons why I came back was that I did not was to continue being in a factory the rest of my life. I saw all my co-workers who are older and I definitely didn't want to be an old factory worker. At my current job, there is always room to advance and move up in the company, so that is why I choose going to school for business management because I eventually want to be in the office. The most important reason why I decided to further my education is because I want to be a positive role model to my son Kaleb and show him that college is something you need to do to further your goals and accomplish dreams in life. Yes, I have had many obstacles that crossed my path but I want him to see that I didn’t just settle for less and that I am in charge of being able to accomplish my dreams and goals.
Failure to communicate: Everyone is guilty of this, I do it all the time in my marriage so how much more do I do it at the workplace!

Because we were a major call center, inventory of the products being sold had to be kept up to meet the demand. Within the first year of the take over the business was in the closing status. The new company owners had no idea about customer service or running a business. Scheduling was the first part of the downfall there were never enough people to answer the amounts of calls we
Using this software exclusively on all projects will greatly reduce the hectic current project execution system that is in place. The communication lines are totally disrupted. There needs to be more structure with communicating what is expected and needed amongst employees. This can be done by weekly meetings.
