This was a bummer for me because I had a feeling that the bad boss was going to do everything he can do to get me out the door. So, as the days passed by I was noticing that everything I did was not how he wanted it to be done. He always was taking
| Working as a Paralegal/Legal Assistant | Nickenha AshleyEverest University OnlineSeptember 14, 2012 | | | | | A career in paralegal studies is a prestigious, professional adventure and offers a wonderful opportunity while enhancing one’s knowledge of the law and provides for challenge, growth and advancement and proves to be just as important as that of an attorney. Being a paralegal is a very skilled and interesting career. Most people assume that a paralegal is another secretary who works in a law office; this is a huge misconception paralegals face each day. A paralegal is also known as a legal assistant, because they assist attorneys and work hand in hand with them (Bureau of labor, 2012-13). A paralegal can assist
Dana and Henry saw themselves as strategic contributors to the business strategy of MGI, whereas Sasha perceived them as interns and business plan writers, while Igor saw them as helping with vision and strategy. When Dav was added to the team, it confused Henry and caused him to question Sasha’s decisions, and the roles he expected the students to have. The case states “Feeling overburdened, Henry realized that his and Dana’s role on the team had become increasingly muddled” Having never completely resolved their interpersonal conflicts, we can say that the group never reached the Norming Stage. They were technically still stuck in the Storming stage, with each
Jobs are hard to find these days, especially when they are seeking a High School diploma or a College degree of some sort. My returning back to school is the best decision that I have made thus far and when I finally graduate, I will know for sure that I made the right choice. My family has a lot to do with me returning to college, I know that there are different job opportunities for me. In order to make it in this world, you have to have some type of degree. Having financial problems played a factor also in my returning to school.
She stated that Social Security has been a “pay-as-you-go” system. In other words, “workers produced output,” (money) “the government took a portion (by the payroll tax), and immediately gave it to the current retirees (in the form of Social Security benefits checks).” She also says, “Contrary to popular belief, the Social Security Administration did not “save” the worker’s income for his retirement” (Article 2). She talks about how the ratio of how many working citizens to retirees has gone down and wonders why exactly? The answer is simply that people in the baby boom generation are having fewer children in recent years. With her proposed solution to the problem above she also introduces some ways to help with the main issue of Social Security.
I’ve been looking for a job lately to maintain my finance matters. When I finally found the job I wanted, I applied immediately and after waiting for a reply from the applied job I had received a letter saying that I am not fit for the job even though my CV was about perfect. Afterwards, I decided to go to the workplace of the job that rejected me to know the reason why I wasn’t taken for the job. When I arrived at the company I was feeling uneasy as all the workers there were white which wasn’t a problem for a black man like me but they were giving looks which told me that I wasn’t welcome here. I went to one of the receptionists to ask them to have a talk with their manager which I was not allowed to do by the receptionist.
They will show support for decisions that a person makes. For example, my boss was one of the few that encouraged me to go back to school and earn a degree. On the other hand, a bad boss doesn’t seem to care about what you do at your job as long as you are doing something and will not encourage you to try to improve yourself or your job. There are days that my co-worker’s boss doesn’t even seem to care that she is at work and that she is just sitting there doing nothing. When there is a task to do, a good boss will give you the chance to do the task and not put you down to make you feel like you can’t do it or doesn’t give you the chance to volunteer for the tasks.
One day you notice that the wiring on a piece of machinery has become frayed. You don’t believe this poses a major safety risk yet, but over time the risk will become more severe as the cord keeps fraying. You want to raise this issue with your manager, but are afraid to, as this will mean shutting the machinery down and bringing production to a standstill for a day while the wiring is repaired. Your team is already under pressure for not meeting its production quota for this month. Would you report the wiring to your manager?
In a professional, volunteer, extracurricular, or academic setting, describe how you overcame a challenging situation within a team. What did you learn about yourself from this experience and how will you use this insight while working in teams at Fuqua? “Team Work” is something that I learnt in my undergrad days where I organized a lot of events. I would like to describe one event in particular where I faced a lot of challenges. During my final year of college I had an opportunity to organize a national level event which aimed at developing young entrepreneurs and creative thinkers.
It’s hard to be nice, show concern, and respect people’s feelings when customers are screaming, yelling, being disrespectful and flat out being rude, and it makes my job very difficult. It literally takes all my strength not to retort back with equally profane words; while controlling emotions when people are screaming profanity, talking at you, or personally attacking you. This is a cruel way to spend a day at work. (I swear people grow nerves of steel when they get on the phone.) I want to help people, but I don’t want to deal with angry, difficult customers over the phone any longer.
