Workweek

Nursing has been a rewarding and satisfying career for many years. However, the workload can put stress on someone. The topic I choose to write about is stress management and reduction for nurses. I choose this topic because nursing can be a stressful career and with the right management techniques can help overcome these stress mechanisms. Someday I will be a nurse and it will be beneficial for me to learn some of these techniques. I will also do a group presentation for my class about this and…

Perry, Fresh Food Company, and Templeton are the main cafeteria on the campus. The meal schedule is failing to some students. Some students do not have time to eat when cafeterias are open at certain time at far distance. Cafeterias might not be available when students have nothing or have time to be sociable. The campus needs to improve the schedule and the cafeteria because it is not flexible on weekend, has same food route, and have time issues. First, the weekends are not flexible on food…

“Don’t forget, the paper is due next Wednesday!” My 8th period teacher, Mrs. Oakford told to my class and I as we streamed out of the cramped classroom on a Friday. We couldn’t wait to bust out of the schools doors and claim our prize of a short freedom for surviving another busy, exhausting, and slow week of middle school. I rushed to my locker, grabbed everything I would need for the homework due Monday, threw it in my bag and headed down the hall collecting my friends to walk to town to start…

Moving in with a best friend Coming home to an empty guess room and spare keys on the key ring is not how you want to end a weekend. Saturday morning I received a text from my best friend, we had been having issues with our living situation. The pain of knowing my best friend just packed up and left was terrible, I was basically losing my best friend. Senior year is full of excitement with prom and graduation all just at your fingertips. Also full of decisions like what you are going to do for…

Much to my surprise, keeping the time log was quite difficult. I tried to fill as many slots that I could in the morning (when I knew I had something for sure planned), but that was not many. It was just too difficult to drop what I was doing and record it (even though it only took at second). What it almost always boiled down to was me racking my brain at the end of the day to figure out what I had down and when I had done it. It was difficult for me to see any distinct patterns because every…

How often have you heard someone complaining about the week being too long? How many times have you been that person? Think about a world where you only had to go to work or go to school four days a week. Now days people working a 50 or 60 hour week is nothing new to the everyday worker. Everyone is worries about for their families. By shortening the work week the health of the American workers could be increased. A four day work week also has the potential to help soften the effects of the…

Sometimes I question why Samra and I had kids. It was not a bad decision to starting dating in an operation room when we were 28. It was not a bad decision when got married at 30. It was not too bad of a decision to have a child at 33, but God decided it was a wonderful decision to give us twins. I mean that very sarcastically… At forty five I have two kids, a girl named Aria and a boy named Vivaan. They are constantly arguing about who’s better, who gets to fly the drone, who gets to wear the…

It had been a normal Friday for any 5th grader at Evans City Elementary School. The bell had rang signaling the end of recess and the start of a very long awaited for weekend. I had went home like always to be greeted by my dog who had been over joyed of the fact I was finally home. "Carly is on the phone wondering if you'd be interested in sleeping over tonight" my mother had called from the kitchen. "Can I talk to her?' I had asked taking the phone from her hands. After we had discussed…

In the novel “The 4 –Hour Workweek” by Timothy Ferris, the author illustrates how he managed to work four hours a week even though it is literally impossible to work those hours in order to make a decent living. As I read this, I got concerned about what the author said because working four hours a week cannot be obtained unless a person was born from a rich family or the person went to a rich school. “The 4-Hour Workweek” displays many concepts that the author can relate to microeconomics. For…

mentions that in the five-day work the employees are always overworked and a number of errors would dramatically be increased. Concomitantly, the rate of costly errors would increase. Moreover, the reading passage explains that with reducing the workweek, the unemployment rates would decrease and more people work during a week and followed by that the errors would be decreased and…
