This game is an intellectual activity. She sees the game as fun, but it is helping her memory and a cognitive function. This game is what keeps her mind going. Candy Crush is also a coping skill that Sandy uses to relax when she is home from work. She is showing signs of job burnout. Job burnout, according to the text is exhaustion from the job (Bjorkland, 2015). This seems to be the main stressor in her life.

The next step was the resume’. A resume’ is basically a summary of your goals and accomplishments. This part of the process was in my opinion the easiest part.

My interviews were conducted over the phone with two women whom I could not imagine my life without. My first interview was with my childhood best friend, now 19-years-old, whom I met at eight-years-old after I moved to Haines from Fairbanks, Alaska. To this day, we have remained best friends. Due to that, our interview required an extent of additional effort to conduct it seriously. However, we managed to cover everything in 10 minutes. My second interview was with my father’s ex-girlfriend, now 61-years-old, who I have the utmost appreciation for. She has only been in my life since 2014, but considering she was a large part of my 18th birthday, senior prom, and high school graduation, I could never not consider her a member of my family. She was more direct in her responses, so our interview lasted only 5 minutes.

On Thursday, November 16, 2017, I conducted a face to face interview with Ms. Jane Doe which took place at her place of employment. The reason why I chose to interview Ms. Doe is because she has worked in the human service field for over 15 years. Ms. Doe currently works as a case manager supervisor for a nonprofit organization that provide temporary emergency shelter for women and children who are victims of domestic violence. She has worked for the organization for a total of five years. I started off by asking Ms. Doe a few questions pertaining to her position as a case manager and has she ever been faced with an ethical issue if so, what was the issue and what was the outcome?
