Yes my decision would be the same. This is because every week I would lose $125 a week from what I make. Although, I would make $120 per day and a total of $600 per week, it would be less than hiring Jim. I would really be making $475 a week because of the renting and gas fees. So I would still go with Jim because I make the most profit with him.
I was born the fourth of December 1991 in Cranbrook British Columbia. I lived there for 18 years. Before joining the military I worked as a fry cook at a Burger King for three years and held part time jobs working for the College of the Rockies summer camp programs during the summer. My parents are currently living together in Cranbrook BC. My father works outside the province testing railway tracks for two months at a time, then returns home for two to three weeks. My mother acts as the main contact point of the family, she works as a financial clerk. I have a 22 year old sister who will be attending university in Calgary this September. I attended Mount Baker Secondary School in Cranbrook and graduated in 2009
On May 27, 2011, I sat in the crowd of thousands of people waiting to see the cheer from the football field. No, this wasn’t a professional football game, or even a college game. This was the graduation and commissioning of 1000 men and women from the United States Naval Academy. As the covers of all the former midshipmen went into the air, and the crowd went wild, I stood in awe, speechless. Even as an 11 year old boy, I knew that I wanted to be that young man standing on the ten yard line, in an immaculate white uniform, jumping up and down and hugging his buddy next to him. As I read stories and biographies of men like Marcus Luttrell and Chris Kyle, some of the most courageous men in the world, I realized my calling in life. I was to be an officer in the United States Navy.
There are few certainties of what one will encounter during life. A common joke names two: death and
I am not a professional writer, but I am a writer with sufficient imagination and positive attitudes. Through last two-semester-writing training, I understand the basic requirements of academic writing, such as the format, the citation and so forth. However, there is still an extensive space for me to improve my skills in both reading and writing. As a reader, I enjoy appreciating masterpieces and I am good at thinking through reading, but sometimes either cultural shock or linguistic barriers limit my reading speed and reduce my interests.
People who know me typically find out pretty quickly that next to my passion for medicine, I am actually one of the world’s hugest computer geeks. In fact, when I first entered college, I toyed with the idea of studying computer science before I realized that the study of the human body was so much more exciting because it allows me to combine my fervor for computers and merge it with my interest in medicine.
Pursing a career as a medical doctor is an opportunity for me to mentor youth in underserved populations. As a child, I was raised in the low income, urban community of Roxbury, MA. Although not as notorious today, the neighborhood had garnered negative attention for its high crime rates. My mother emigrated from Haiti and raised me as a single parent. Due to our financial circumstance, Roxbury became our permanent residence. I have always felt there was something lacking in Roxbury in comparison to other towns I visited. My teenage years were largely spent in the suburban town of Stoneham where I attended high school. There was a literal difference in air quality and a psychology contrast in future prospects. While native students of
When looking through my self-assessment which analyzed my strengths, abilities, skills and areas of improvement it made me wonder if all leaders have similar strengths and areas of improvement. For the project I thought I would look at someone who I considered a polar opposite to myself and begin to explore this notion of similarities and dissimilarities. The leader I chose was the infamous Jack Welch. This paper will explore my-self assessment, how that compares and contrasts with Jack. This paper will also take a closer look at Jack 's skills and abilities and just how they affected his roles and functions throughout his career.

I am excited to be qualified to have the opportunity to apply for the Rose Marie Beard Woman of Spirit Honors Scholarship. I immigrated from the Philippines to the United States with my father and two older sisters. My mother joined us after a few years. My parents instilled in me the importance of education, as well as the obstacles that may stand in the way. When we arrived in the United States, my father enrolled me in a Catholic school, where he believed I would receive the best education. I am now the first person in my family to attend to college. After elementary school, I knew I wanted to continue my educational journey in a private Catholic high school, but I knew the expenses would be a problem. I maintained being a top student and looked for different options to get to where I wanted to be. To obtain this dream, which always seemed unreachable for my family, I worked hard with
It was 5:15 in the morning, and my mother had just finished giving birth to a healthy, 7 pound, baby girl—me. After I was born, my mother had to fend me off from dozens of nurses, who all wanted to hold me and take a look at me. Apparently, I was the only girl to have been born in that hospital that whole night/morning. However, I would have never guessed that this specific occurrence would have been an irony, of sorts, to my identity.
What I learned is you can set a goal and tell yourself it’s easy but in reality it’s not. It’s expensive you would have to work really hard in life. I learned you would have to get things you need first not what you want. Well you can get what you want but until your settle down and have money left over. Then you can get things you
My personal statement will talk about how I will be the first sibling to attend college and how I love being in the kitchen. I love trying making new desserts and new dishes. If my mom and family love them, then they would put it on the menu of our restaurant. The restaurant name is called Limon. My grandmother had a restaurant as well and she taught my mother how to cook. Now my mom teaches me how to cook, I enjoy how my mother passes down my grandmother's dishes. I think my grandma would appreciate that my mom is doing that. I think later on in life I would want a restaurant of my own. I have so many wishes in life, but in order to make that happen, I would have to be successful in life and continue going to school.
“Some people called it ‘the root of insanity’, by others is known as ‘a spark of holiness’, and sometimes, it’s hard to tell the difference... But if you find something that you truly love, dedicate it all you’ve got; and leave the rest alone.” Roman Gerry- Kites.
From a young age, I have worked with my dad restoring cars. I took a great interest in the electrical, mechanical, and body work he was doing. He is a do-it-yourself kind of guy and I helped him work on renovating bedrooms, bathrooms, and hallways in the house. I really enjoyed the hands on work that I was helping him with. When I got to high school, I learned about an aerospace engineering class that sounded like something I would really like. I took an intro to engineering class so I could take the aerospace class. Through the intro class, I learned of all the different types of engineering and I no longer wanted to take just the aerospace class, but any engineering course I could. The next year I took a computer integrated manufacturing (CIM) class
