They say there is always that one person who acts a certain way if you don’t know that person, you are that person. This situation applies to me because honestly I am the Jenny in the situation. I do not mean to act standoffish or come off as cold however I suffer from anxiety. At social settings I tend to stick with people I know and even with my own friends I observe rather than talk. However, when I am with my best friends, or my significant other I thrive and become one of the most confident person. My job requires me to break out my comfort zone where I must interact with students daily at Lehman College. Honestly I tend to make a script in my head and repeat it so when I talk to students I do not trip on y words. My coworkers have noticed my actions and try to include me in conversation.

At a workplace no matter how you feel or personal opinions, it’s a place where you must work with a team to advance. So if an employee inclines to speak, interact or comprise it can strain both the employee and potential networking advances. We currently live in a world where an important aspect of advancing in life is knowing people and create bridges and networks. If we lose that human relation, then we are dooming oneself to prosper and human qualities. Another advantage about learning human relation skills is learning about oneself. When you learn how to able to interact with others you can learn about yourself. Companies value these good skills because they are creating a source and network of people to advance the careers. Hiring managers use human relations related questions during interview

    Personal values in this setting for Dwight could become complicated for him (ACA, 2014, A.4.b). If I put myself in his shoes, I would not agree to work with in a religious setting in which I did not believe in their same values. That being said, if he is working with a fellow church member, how is he going to keep his personal values from coming into the session? What if he has a client who says they are struggling within the church, do not know if it is true, can he separates how he feels about the church with how the client is feeling?…

    I first started looking for a summer internship during the spring 2015 school semester. I used various outlets and applied to many jobs in Long Island, NY and in Albany, NY. I found that using career websites, such as CareerSaint or Indeed.com, did not result in me finding much because I would send out my resume, and not really know who my resume went to so I could not follow up with the company if I wanted to. So, I started researching online, mainly using search engines such as Google.com, companies that I thought would be a good fit for me. My major is Actuarial Science, however I am still looking at working in different areas in business in order to find something that I really enjoy doing and can see myself doing as a career for the rest of my life.…

    When I first began this assignment, I thought that the question, “Who am I?,” was a very difficult one to answer. However, as I began to answer the question, there came to light some interesting similarities. If I were to categorize each of my answers in terms of gender, age, ethnicity, race, or religion, then I believe I only addressed those with the first and fifth time answering the question. My first answer was, “I am a white male American who attends school and goes to work.” That answer provides information about how I see my physical self in context with the culture I live in.…
