I Believe In Respect

Decent Essays
I believe in a lot on things, many on which are important, but the most important in my view is respect.
I believe in respect because that's how I was taught. I was taught to respect me elders and respect my family members. I believe that if anyone older than you walks out the door you’re going into, you should hold the door for them, why?, well if I was coming out the door and someone was following me it would be a huge inconvenience to shut the door and then have that person directly behind me to have to open the door again, also if i’m coming out why not just hold it? Another reason why I believe in respecting my elders is because they determine if I am able to get a job or not. If you’re applying for a job and you disrespect the manager

I work with a few older employees and they work 5x harder than some of the younger employees I work with. I also received a 35 on my EI test which I was not surprised of either. I have a very high work ethic and have very little time for play in my job. I do need to learn to put myself in others shoes; sometimes this is very hard for me to do.…

    Levy and Jamie L. Macdonald, they explain how Robert N. Butler who was the first Director of the National Institute on Aging defines ageism as only a negative aspect. He states that ageism is the prejudiced attitude by one age group to another, he establishes that younger people just see aging as a process of becoming “powerless” and “useless.” What Sheri R. Levy and Jamie L. Macdonald are trying to accomplish in this article is to give ageism a more positive focus. In 2005 Todd Nelson Editor of Journal of Social Issues made a claim that insinuated that people do not necessarily focus on ageism because of how it is portrayed in the media, and the common belief that getting old can only bring negative aspects into your life (Levy, Macdonald). According to the authors ageism in the workplace continues to be a huge issue, including negative environment, less accessibility to salary increase and promotions, force early retirement and discrimination when it comes to hiring an older…

    “With great power comes great responsibility” In my opinion, we live in the most powerful country in the world. With that power comes responsibility to all of us who are citizens of America. Being a citizen of America is more than just taking from a powerful country. It also means that we should give to our country as well. One of the most powerful stories that comes to my mind is the story of the people on the September 11th flight heading to Washington, D.C. that was under attack by terrorists.…

Employers tend to categorize older job applicants as slow, fragile and unable to learn new tricks, while the view younger people as irresponsible, inexperienced and not devoted. Being denied an employment opportunity because of an inaccurate, biased opinion is simply unfair and age discrimination in employment can cause more problems than one might realize. Deciding whether or not to hire someone based upon their age and correlating stereotypes is morally wrong and will not find employers devoted, hardworking employees.…

    The first principle which was entrenched in me was the significance of integrity, and to always express honesty with him. At an early age, my dad accentuated to me to be honest regards of what kind of mistake was done. Secondly, my father taught me to always find yourself leading and not following behind others. This principle I incorporated in my childhood, and into my adult life, any decision I choose to make is because of my choice and not because of the persuasion of others.
