edsgarcia I agree with you lovelydame3000.All of these are important in making an employee happy. Surprisingly, some companies have all of these, yet you'll still find unhappy employees. What is more important perhaps, is that employees are happy mainly because of the...

edsgarcia No second thoughts I will return the money to the cashier immediately. I was in such situation several times and it simply gave me a good feeling. I will only have a guilty conscience if I did not return that amount.

edsgarcia I just can't imagine myself being in a situation wherein I can't trust no one. One can't help but become paranoid if that's the situation. Whether I like it or not, I still have to look for someone to trust. In doing so, I take some risk. And I believe it is...

edsgarcia definitely, patience and self-control can help a lot in being an effective teacher. Other qualities like being competent, compassionate, approachable and a touch of humility will definitely make students want to learn from you.

edsgarcia That's true pearl_angel life is not only for those who move fast. In doing so they fail to smell the roses. In other words enjoy the journey. And don't be afraid of moving slow but be afraid of standing still. Because in doing so, you won't be accomplishing...

edsgarcia Co-curricular activities are important in the learning process. But, forcing a student to join a particular activity with threatening remarks is definitely uncalled for. The teacher should instead find a role for those students who can't be part of the major...

edsgarcia I agree with you easy888. Anywhere we go except perhaps in places where women are treated differently, performance of a leader does not depend on the gender. There could be numerous factors in appraising the performance of a leader and not mainly on gender.

edsgarcia I've worked for both male and female bosses. There are both competent and not so competent bosses regardless of the gender. Competence and confidence in being a boss will make the difference and not the gender. edsgarcia
