PRODUCTIVITY

To me, productivity is getting things done the right way, in a good amount of time. This takes cooperation and good teamwork. One person can't do everything on their own. Teamwork is very important for productivity and there also needs to be good communication. Productivity is very important in the workplace because it is necessary for a business to be successful. If they are not productive, the company will loose money and may not be able to stay open. In my workplace I would make several changes. I would post a list of rules for the employees to go by concerning break times and company policies. There would also be kitchen rules and guidelines and lists of side work that can be done during slow times. This would help with productivity because the rules would help to ensure that employees will come to work on time more, come to work completely dressed and ready to work, dress properly, and they will also have less time to take breaks because the side work will be listed for them to complete. I do agree that for some people work can be an outlet for self-esteem and way to recieve material rewards. I think that this all depends on what kind of job a person has and what that person's interests are. The right job can offer this for someone but others must find some way to get the material rewards and express them self.

ORGANIZATION

Organization is important because it is necessary to have things work smoothly in a business or a home. Having poor organizational skills makes a person look like they do not care and are not motivated. I need to use my time more wisely so that I can get the papers filed in the office. I have been putting it off and it has piled up on me.

It is very important to say no when you are asked to do something that will interfere with your school work. If you know that you need help in order to achieve your goals, then you should ask for help. Prioritize! Do the work that is due first, first. You also need to do the most important things first. You should set time tables for yourseld so that you get your work done on time and still do the other things that you need to do in a timely manner. Enjoy some free time without worrying about work, but do not waist time, spend it wisely.

Why Appearance is so important!

APPEARANCE
Your appearance can greatly affect your job. If you are not dressed properly and groomed well, then your boss could let you go due to your negative appearance. The way that we look to the customers, that we wait on, makes an impression of our company in that person's mind. This is usually a lasting impression and it decides if the customer will come back and be a repeat customer. This makes appearance very important to the employer and to everyone in the workplace.
E-mail etiquette is needed because the e-mail sent from a business needs to be professional, to the point and clear to the reader, and it should only contain information that is supposed to be sent and work related.
Five of the e-mail etiquette rules are:
1. Do not leave out the message thread.
2. Do not overuse the high priority option.
3. Do not overuse the reply to all option,
4. Do not use e-mail to discuss confidential information.
5. Make it personal.
