risis is indeed a word used daily in my job setting. A crisis can be defined in many ways. According to Kanel (2014), a crisis is a state of disequilibrium that occurs after a stressor (precipitating event). The person is then unable to function in one or more areas of his or her life because customary coping mechanisms have failed. An example of a crisis that I recently dealt with was with one of the students I currently work with. He lost his mother on October 31st a few years ago. At the…

Recalls concerning faulty accelerator peddles which resulted in accidents and fatalities challenged Toyota’s reputation and dependability.

Tony Packo III helped uncovering the truth as to what actually happened between the Packo family and Mr. Horvath. This presentation was not only informative in learning about his case and the media, but also to develop a deeper sense of thinking beyond what we read in the newspaper. It was interesting to understand the two sides and examine beyond the media to develop my own conclusions about this case. One of the main opinions I had that was incorrect was that Tony Packo III committed theft.…

Out of all difficult situations I personally encountered, nothing ever reached the insanity of my room's bedbug infestation in my junior year. Unfortunately, my family could not afford a bed bug exterminator. With a single mother who makes less than $30,000 a year and a brother in college, hiring an exterminator was a choice we could not afford. Consequently, our circumstances left us with one remaining option: annihilating the nightmares themselves. Ultimately, with the bedbugs originating in…
