Jordan has a complaint:

An employee who waltz right in front of my office job at noon every day. We have to come relatively flexible working for the people, 08.30 clock 11, but I think lunch is just ridiculous! Not that, so I do not really have anything to say to me. I know that his boss had told him several months to arrive earlier, but abandoned since. Intends to stay late into the night, but the few times I went behind me is gone usually before I go. And that person is always late on every project that is not working! I know it's really not my thing, but what really bothers me when he comes after you've already set in half a day. What to do?

Jordan, I feel your pain, but somewhere in there, answered his own question: It is likely that you will not change. It can be very frustrating - at work, in life, even in popular culture - if other people do not live in our personal standards. But you can really focus on your own behavior, the "you" you can be the best, and I hope that carries over to those around you. In this case, when the head of the person who you know and the deadlines are missed, you have to trust that the one or other way to be solved.

Well, if I ever finish these projects, that this is an area where you can exercise some influence. Always start directly confront the person, not as a reproach. "Hey, I know you have a lot on your plate, but I can not fulfill my term of office, if you do not meet the deadline," Oh, it will not work, but at least they tried - before betrayal of the person. Impact your own productivity is definitely something you can to get the attention of your supervisor. You can also suggest a status report weekly staff meeting at 11 clock; I could help kill two birds with twelve arrival deadline missing friend .

Kevin tweeted us:

Which job should I take?

Kevin, I do not know you very well, but seems capable of social media; see my work in this week below. Otherwise, all I can tell you to focus on their interests and abilities. Well, that's an interesting thing talent. Not necessarily what you studied in school and the responsibilities of the previous jobs that you have had have been based. People gather experience in all kinds of ways. All up to you employer that you convince the skills that their not necessarily have to scream CV . Also about what you want to do, to think what they can do, and will overlap these two categories. Then see what there is, is: Online and AOL register on employment in the local newspaper, on LinkedIn, for an employment agency, in characters "Help Wanted" or just talking with friends and family (ie network). Good luck and let us know how your search goes!
