Robert E. Lee was a General for the Confederate army. Lee had always been committed to his obligations in the military. “In 1846, Lee got the chance he’d been waiting his whole military career for when the United States when to war with Mexico. Serving under General Winfield Scott, Lee distinguished himself as a brave battle commander and brilliant tactician.” (Biogrpahy.com). General Scott thought highly of Lee. But, Lee’s life away from battle was difficult for him to handle. He just didn’t know what to do with his life since he was so engulfed in the battle(s). “In 1859 Lee returned to the Army, accepting a thankless position at a lonely cavalry outpost in Texas. In October of that year, Lee got a break when he was summoned to put an end to a slave insurrection led by John Brown at Harper’s Ferry. Lee’s orchestrated attack took just a single hour to end the revolt, and his success put him on a short list of names to lead the Union Army should the nation go to war.” (Biography.com).…
The Cold Equations This short story by Tom Godwin is a very sentimental and lesson learning story. Briefly, it is about a ship on a designated mission which encounters a problem because the pilot on the ship encounters a stowaway, a young girl, and every stowaway found on board must be jettisoned, it was the law and there was absolutely no appeal. Marilyn, the stowaway’s name, was simply a teen and all she wanted was to see her brother whom she hadn’t seen in over 10 years she really meant no harm but she chose to ignore the warning sign in front of the ship. The EDS ships were only equipped with a certain amount of fuel that would reach them only to their designated destination, h amount of fuel would not power an EDS with mass of m plus x safely to it’s destination. Although it was very saddening that the pilot had to kill Marilyn, there was nothing else that could be done. If he would have let her stay on board he would die along with the other 6 men waiting on the EDS for the cure to their survival. In my opinion, his decision was justified, it was the law and he had done all he could do to help the poor girl but it wasn’t merely enough. The first reason to believe that the pilot’s decision was justified was because it was very logical and ethical. He had not other choice it was the law to kill a stowaway on board, no matter if it was a beautiful girl, beauty had no partake in this scenario it wasn’t like Earth. The pilot really did care about Marilyn’s life and he really did not want to kill her but, if it wouldn’t have been done the lives of many others would also have been gone. Although he did not want, he would have had no other choice. Either way there really was no win because if he would have let Marilyn stay on board and not jettisoned her, in the long run she would still have died along with the pilot and the other men counting on the EDS with the fever serum it was carrying. The second reason to believe the pilot’s…
Life is full of challenges and sometimes those challenges can be a hindrance to achieving our goals. Our personal lives can affect our professional lives a great deal for those who do not know how to balance both. When one is happy with life outside of work one is typically happy at work. When one has personal struggles then work life becomes troubled as well. There are some things that have stronger effects than others but when life seems to get out of hand personally it effects work motivation. Baack (2012) tells us that “motivation is what starts, maintains, and stops behaviors” (Chapter 4).…

The easiest, most reliable way to ensure personal attitudes or beliefs do not obstruct the quality of work is to leave those personal attitudes and beliefs at home, where they belong but some beliefs and personal attitudes should be taken to work with you, as these may be the very things that make you perfect for the job.

People are often unfulfilled by the choices they make in their lives. The reason for this is that everyone has insecurities, no one will ever feel satisfied with their work, what they create. They fear the judgement of those who are close to them and those who are strangers. The reason this fear is created is because society norms are imposed on us. Societal norms are a set of guidelines that are commonly followed, shunning those who do not follow those guidelines. Societal norms affect our everyday lives because they make us insecure and influence us to do things that we normally would not do. De Botton expands on the idea of insecurities when he speaks of his insecurities of traveling. He…

Personal differences and preference can impact organizational ethics by the perception of management and all the employees of the organization. When employed at many jobs during your career you are faced with multitude of individual differences and preferences. Someone’s personal differences does not affect the individual alone, but it affect others around them. I am a firm believer, that everyone should be treated differently in an organization, because everyone’s personality is not the same. For example, an employee has an out- going personality and enjoys being the leader of the group where as others may enjoy just working alone. However, that would be the personality that represents the overall profile of stable psychological attributes which captures the unique nature of that individual.…
