You are what you e-mail

This article mainly talks about electronic mail (e-mail) and what your Boss might look at. They say you can tell a lot about someone’s messages and by the way they write them. Like that’s really exciting that they can do that these days. They pay a lot of attention to little details that teens like us do like abbreviations and shortcuts slang like- (JW) Just Wondering (IDK) I Don’t Know (Wth) what the heck. Also like the way we right in capitals, or lower case. Quite a few Businesses have an audit to see what there workers are e-mailing. Also there are (8) things may help to make your e-mails sound more urgent and important if you need them to. These (8) things are; put your bottom line in the subject line, Lead with the most important information, Choose your content and tone carefully, Treat your e-mail like an English paper, Add a signature to your messages, don’t forget to “Proofread!” Respond quickly to others’ e mails, Cover one topic per email. It does suck that your employers have the right to see what you're up to. But anyway follow those (8) things and your e-mails may be taken seriously.

Game On!

I like playing Video games and all that, but that was when I was like 13 years old ha-ha but from what I understand a lot of adults play a lot of video games probably because of boredom or it can be a get away for them, to take away from their daily jobs and all that fun stuff. So yeah the average gamer in the United States is the age of 33 years old maybe when I get older I will get back to my early days, so maybe i will be a 33 year old gamer one day. But yea the gaming world is not for me, but maybe for others so keep “Gaming Out”!

Green Jobs!

Global warming is killing off species of plants and animals, it hurts our forests. We need the forests because the trees and plants that make them up produce oxygen they absorb some of the carbon dioxide that we breathe out. So Green jobs are good so individuals can produce less Green house gasses while working and doing their daily job, it is a good thing people get paid and they get to help out the environment. Now that it’s becoming easier to find a career that benefits the environment. I would possibly get into, a Green job for a future career, definitely but I am not sure if you will make a lot of money off a Green job. I wish it was like the name, green job equals = you make lots of money ha-ha.

One of the Green Careers I would be interested in myself would probably be a Green architect; they design homes and buildings that produce less pollution and also uses fewer resources, like electricity. The building industry is responsible for more than 40 percent of the Greenhouse gas emissions, says’ an architect from the firm “Gensler”. From what I have read there is a very big demand for people with the skills such as, construction workers, carpenters, air-conditioning technicians, and people who can install solar panels in the Green’ building industry, so go green and get a job that is good for the environment.
