Clarence, I agree with you completely that older generations follow the motto “a hard day’s work for an honest day’s pay”. 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.…
I have always been interested in learning and using new ideas. Throughout my life, I have invariably drawn from my life experiences, newly learned ideas and my continuing education to help problem-solve sensibly and realistically allowing me to move forward or help others reach their goals. Although I have no formal teaching experience, in my past work and involvement in organized sports, I have repeatedly used the Progressive philosophy. When dealing with 13 & 14 year olds many situations arise such as bullying, personality clashes or simply not understanding a drill or play. I deal with these situations by asking questions to stimulate a discussion, allowing them to draw on past experiences; positive or negative, consequently allowing them to come up with a solution or grasp the knowledge they are seeking.…
My professional career has included some of the top regional theatre companies in the country. My personal experiences include attending night clubs from London to New York, attendance to hundreds of opening and entertainment driven events, theatrical performances, concerts, etc… I have the innate ability to recognize great talent of multiple genres and what will attract an audience and keep them coming back for…
My response to this selection is that Hornak made right decision, even though it took her long time to realize, but it would be hard for me If I were to change my career. It would be hard for me because I know I spent a lot time to study and it costs me a lot too. But I personally believe that we all need money, but I would also want to pick the major that I would enjoy in and which would make me proud. For instance, I like to help others…
My graduate experience will be light years different then my undergraduate training. I chuckle just contemplating the technological difference alone. Back when I attended undergraduate school there wasn’t the internet, the LoudCloud, e-books, or personal laptop computers. We thought we were “hot stuff” because we progressed from the slide ruler to a state of the art Texas Interment graphing calculator. By the way google informed me that my particular calculator at that time was the first of its kind.…
The idea of being told that I had to work for the first time made me want to eat glass; but could it possibly have turned out for the better? In England, when you reach 10th grade you participate in a nationally accepted program called 'Work Experience'. ' Work Experience' is when you work just like you would if you were legally an adult except with this program it only lasts a week. After 2 weeks of tireless searching I landed a job at Ariya Capital; an experienced developer and investor in clean energy and infrastructure projects throughout sub-Saharan Africa. It was actually much more advanced than any job I ever thought of getting.…
I have experience in areas; such as operations for Corrections and Law Enforcement, Victim Witness Liaison Parole and Clemency while working in Corrections.

“You need a job.” “Do something productive.” “Why are you so lazy?” “ I’m sick of seeing you sit around all day,” nagged my mother. It was summer of eighth grade and I would be transitioning into high school in a couple months.…
My occupational goal is to be a member in the FBI or an investigator with the FBI. I plan to achieve this is by taking your criminology program for 4 years and getting my bachelors degree then after I graduate I will do a paid internship with the FBI to later on become into their program. I believe I deserve this scholarship because I've worked hard all four years of high school while playing varsity volleyball all four years of high school and having a job and I would really appreciate it if you could help me out with my expenses for…
One goal I have is to always commit myself to work towards succeeding even when facing hardships. I continue to demonstrate exceptional work ethic even when life is tough. Even when I have family hardships such as my grandpa having brain cancer or my dad not being around it's essential to succeed because it will allow me to have meaningful future. When going through tough time I still maintain excellent grades and finish all my work. I commit my self to demonstrating a positive work ethic.…
My professional experience allows me to be an outstanding candidate for this position given that I have been taught by outstanding mentors and teachers of my past. I have learned and the incorporated various teachings. Teaching such as Professionalism and Work Ethics these I feel are experiences that I plan to pass to youth so our future can prosper with positive generations.…
The book has an interesting approach at defining what identity is. I really appreciated how the book opened my eyes to how identity can be seen. For example we dont just have an identity, because we actually do one. As the book put its “its not just having a symbolic sense of it, but doing it in the presence of people and doing it well in there eyes”. Although, their is still much more to defining what identity is I will do my best to define exactly what is.…
In high school there were a lot of people that had jobs. There was a limited amount that had a job freshman year. I was lucky to have known a kid at Kroger that was in my class; I wasn't looking for a job at the time but he was telling me how they were hiring and all i had to do was apply. I applied that day and heard back two days later.…
The extent to which I felt the expectations of both the worked based Learning experience and of the site supervisor were accomplished was shown, when I started to create a bond with the guest of the corner table as well as the staff and volunteers. Knowing the staff and site supervisor could count on me to complete the task they asked for me to achieve let me know that the staff knew I was responsible and trustworthy and that would be willing to accept responsibilities. When site supervisor felt that I was capable of a task and I was willing to follow procedures I would be asked to train new volunteers on how to proficiently complete a certain job/task. Getting positive feedback and respect felt like a goal met as it made this program an encouraging…
Helping and teaching people are my passion. I believe everyone deserves a chance to improve their life. Working to help the needy in my community would be very rewarding. Any of us might need help from a social worker in our life time. My past work experience taught me to have compassion for people with special needs and substance abuse problems.…
