deciding after careful consideration to change the time off policies for the company. With this change Mrs. Jackson is hoping to reduce the unscheduled time off that has recently affected areas of the company. With more and more employees calling off, Mrs. Jackson is concerned that these unscheduled absences will cause delay in meeting customer deadlines (Martocchio, 2013). By implementing a new policy that will replace sick/vacation time with a paid time off (PTO) bank, Mrs. Jackson is hoping…

very factual. A person looking back into my instagram would see this and think that I was still friends with all of them. Looking back I posted this photo because I wanted others to perceive that these was my close group of friends even though at the time we were not what I would call the best of friends, due to drama and other altercations. By looking at this photo you would never guess…

want to have a successful future. I will enjoy my job and it will satisfy my interests in art. If I am proficient or higher, I will already have skills to make it in my career. But, art is just one of my interests that I have for the future. In the next 5-8 years, I see myself hopefully going Ronald Reagan High School because they have rigorous arts and academic programs. In high school, I will study all kinds of arts, like visual arts and performing arts. Once I graduate from high school,…

I am so busy looking forward to what comes next that I often miss the present. By the time I realize that I enjoy the present it has become the past. Today, my boyfriend pointed out something interesting to me. When we are children and we experience something for the first time the feeling is so intense. For example, when we trip and fall for the first time it is the worst thing that has ever happened to us. He went on to say that this is why time moves so quickly as we grow older. To…

experiences to build his films. Pursuing this further, Linklater repeatedly focuses on the passage of time, the act of communication and his depiction of masculinity and femininity, and his films always take on a natural humanistic perspective. Richard Linklater says that the phrase “seize the moment” is wrong, because really in life the moment almost always seizes us. Linklater looks at time as a series of moments and growth. Most of Linklater’s films all take place in the span of one day,…

Epiphany to Lent Read Ephesians 6 On Ash Wednesday things will change. The light of the world will become the sufferer of life. It seems too soon. On the first day of January, annually Christians and others may celebrate the birth of Mary's baby - Jesus. Now look and listen as songs have turned from praise of birth to hymns and music for a season of ministry, before death. What makes it bad or sad? Why is it that there often a madding sense of frustration that comes, after such a…

Dearest Flo Dear Flo, my favorite fly, the flies need you. I miss you so much. As you know, I am Phil, hopefully your beloved fly. Devastatingly, many unfortunate events have taken place since you moved away. I have encountered numerous adventures that are for the most part, bad. Because of my attempts to survive, and adventures which have failed, I have much advice to give to you. During one of my more dangerous escapades, I narrowly evaded death. Writing this letter, I realized that I would…

Senior Year Finally Here… By Samantha Hopper Senior year, I have been waiting my whole life for this time and I thought would never come. Unconventional from most, I have been told what to do and going to school with my fellow classmates since we were four, and now we are supposed to be capable to decide what we want to do with rest of our lives. Senior year is an emotional year, with a lot of “stay in touch”-s and saying goodbye to a lot of things that we found most comforting. When I think…

being surveyed but can’t definitely say from where. We’ve all experienced this feeling, whether it be from a school, a church, or your own home, and that feeling has inevitably influenced our decisions. I have personally experienced this feeling many times, but my most relevant example would probably be working at The Pittsburgh Stop. On the corner Forbes and Bigelow Boulevard right between Hillman Library and the William Pitt Union, there is an outside vendor called The Pittsburgh Stop. The…
