Equity – There are no policies of employee equity and fair treatment; no specific salary range for each level of position; no job description of each position; no performance reviews for the lower levels of employees; and no policies for termination.

James Wood Sarah Brown 9/19/2014 Comp 1 – A View from 80 Response I know many people who are generally considered to be elderly. However, it seems no one has ever told them about their age. They are all generally in good spirits and enjoy showing everyone how they feel. Let’s take Levi Taylor for example. He is approaching 86, and even though he can’t get around well, he still makes our monthly club meetings to catch up with everyone there and show out a bit.
We had white, black and Spanish and it was very fun. Nobody tried to act like they were better than the other. We did what we were supposed to do and in a timely matter. The managers and the supervisors were very nice as well, we respected them and they respected us. They made sure that every month we had safety meetings to prevent any injuries to the workers.
Beer Game Reflection The BeerGame taught me a valuable lesson of never taking charge of a situation that I am not familiar with. Having organized a time and location for our group to meet, I naturally assumed control of the group by setting up the game and choosing the team name. I also took first pick in the roles and decided to be the producer, knowing that everything ultimately will stem from me. The other members of my group followed suite and chose their positions and so began week 1. Surprisingly for the first 16 weeks our group excelled in every position and made an overall profit of 900$, along with having positive stock and money in each of the four positions.
Even though it is similar to a formal team there are some differences. There is no manager/leader, team members are equal in informal teams. Since there is no specialty, it means that any task done by one team member can be done by any other team member as well. Informal teams are common in start-ups, where all the people involved are equal and have the same skills. Size of team: Out of research it has been shown that the best team size is five to nine people in a group.
North was probably one of the best schools I could have ever transferred to because there acceptance of everyone is outstanding. See when you are a transfer student you have to come into the school to have a school tour. This school tour usually is scheduled at the end of an hour right before A lunch so you can see the halls during passing time, but also still get to see the students in action in their classes. So I was walking with principle at the time Rick Jones and my mother. I just remembering walking into one of the crazy connected art classes, wondering why they were set up like that, and seeing frantic students banging on metal.
The names Riyad and I’m blessed I’ve gotten to graduate from Saints Mary & Joseph School. I find it astonishing how someone could feel so personally connected to all the teachers, students, staff, & parents. I greatly appreciate everything they have done for my school and I. Looking back at the past 10 years of my life, I’ve seen how everyone has grown and changed; but only for the best. When I really take the time to think about it I wouldn’t want to grow and mature with any other class.
The shows were very basic with just everyday life situations and all the characters were polite and nothing was ever shown on television that could be deemed offensive. Fast-forward to today and the reality television shows that deal with larger than life issues are on not only color television but, high definition flat screens and Dolby surround sound. If you have the right cable connection you can literally have hundreds of television shows or thousands of movies right at your fingertips. Things have changed so much from the 1950’s for teenagers. In many cases the changes have made life better and provided teenagers with many good benefits but in many ways the changes have had negative effects.
Generations, before now, lived without cell phones at all and they survived just fine. People of those days developed life-long friendships, became successful businessmen and women, and excelled in scholastics without the use of texting in one’s life; contrary of today. Text messaging has a grave negative impact on society. Texting is an immense distraction in the United States. The general public continues to text throughout the day, regardless of the individuals actions at that time.
I’ve talked to Apple Store salespeople (specialists) who say they get feedback every day from their managers even though they have been on the job for months.The feedback is always empowering and positive and it’s always aimed at helping salespeople understand the conversation they just had with a customer and how to improve the conversation next time. The Apple Store also seeks feedback from its customers. It sends a survey after a purchase and asks the ultimate question -- on a scale of 1 to 10, how likely are you to recommend Apple products to a friend? Anything less than 8, 9 or 10 is considered room for improvement. Supportive and committed staff Apple has a non-commissioned sales floor so employees don’t feel pressured to make a sale.
