Workplace Do's & Don'ts
Two important issues are; punctuallity and personal days & sick time. All people have pet peaves. I had a boss that did not care if you were one minute late even if there was a blizzard. He said, "you should have planned for it". Although I did not agree with him when it came to inclimate weather, I did however understand that organizations cannot function at 100% if their people do not come into work.
Because the world is gtting smaller everyday because of technology, business people should be aware of international eitquettecy. Because many countries hav different diversity and cultural backgrounds, organizations can loose an international company very quickly. An example is the big three auto makers have been embaraced when they found out that the name of one of their products had a different meaning in another country.
Also because we can use Linked-In as a working tool, we should take a look at some of their do's and Don'ts.

Blog Identity
What is a person? Ineresting question. But for this disscusion, Identity is the person who you are. What does this mean? Wel for one, you can come off being smart, silly, arrogant, fun, caring and many other different describtions.
Depebding on the purpose of one intetions will help govern the way one acts.
If you are using a blog on a professional level, such as for looking for a job placement, than rude and unappropriate behavior should be avoided.
But another aspect of your identity is to protect it. One must interupt what the others are saying and then decide can they be trusted. Even if they can be trusted, certainly there are others that can not be trusted.
I have found two articles, one for each topic that I posted. I hope you enjoy them.

Change, Willit happen Again?
Because change is a constant, life can go forward, backwards, sideways, and yes up or down. We may have learned from our mistakes, but change can teach us a new lesson. The change that we are experiencing now is not perminate, but it is tough. So why did it happen? Well if you ask five people you will probablly get five different answers.
During these difficult times we need to be adaptable. By working through this we can overcome most if not all obstacles. The trick is to never give up. Why? Because we cannot fail or succeed without effort, when we give up, future opportunities are lost.

Work Place Performance
In this failing economy, many employees are being let go for a variety of reasons. One targeted sector are employees that have made a career out of being a slacker. To me a slacker is an individual that displays no work ethic or pride. Their main goal is to accomplish as little as possible and have their bosses belief that they all by themselves just moved a mountain.Everyone should keep in mind that the employer has eyes all over. Spies, well yes, in a way. The security cammeras will catch more than a boss can patrolling the work area.
The question is, is it ethical? I would definitely say yes. Keep in mind, that even though the restrooms would be a great place for goofing off, cameras "Should not be in place as this is a definiate violation of Privacy."There are some fileds that may be more dependable employment, such as the medical field, but again maybe not. Michigan has intentions on laying off several State Troopers and other public services in order to balance the budget. My advice would be to do the best job that you are capable of doing, not only now, but always. To have and use good morales, values, ethics, and honesty is always a great policy.Clyde
