waited but walked around the mall. If we went anywhere else it would 've been the same. After a wait, we were seated and the manager said "enjoy your meal." I replied..."we better, it was a long wait!" (Insert chuckle). As crowded as they were, the staff was friendly, the food came out promo and nothing was wrong. Everyone was happy and it was good! The wait was worth it!! The were on the ball on a crowded pre-love celebration night. Kudos!” (Massachusetts…
Soldiers to deploy when the nation calls. One part of our preparation relates to ensuring Soldiers are qualified on their assigned weapons. During one planning event I was in a meeting with my supervisor, or First Sergeant, and my peers, or fellow Staff Sergeants, were planning our annual weapons…
After a number of meetings with the investigator, one would prepare a briefing memo that could be used to inform the policy makers about the nurse staff shortage and its impact on the economy, and further to propose a possible policy solution that the state and nation could adopt for future protocol review. As such, a policy assessment will be conducted to determine whether the policy makers’ intuition that they were somehow limited to certain types of conclusions was an accurate interpretation…
In many restaurants today numerous people can see that there are more waitresses instead of waiters. “In other words, waiting on tables is defined as typical ‘women’s work’ because women perform it and because the work activities are considered ‘feminine’” (Hall, 329). Why? Why is this position considered something that only women should be preforming? I think that waiting on tables and being a server has been considered mainly done by women for a long period of time based on the research that…
Being a soldier with multiple combat tours I have seen in some cases the worst humanity can offer. During my last combat tour my experiences helped myself define the direction I wanted to take, both in the military and eventually when I transition back into the civilian world. I made the decision about month six of my tour that I wanted to stay in the Army, but above all that I should return to my roots as a professional computer nerd. In 2009 I was running my own Information Technology Company…
At some point in everyone’s life, someone or something stands out to them in a way that nothing else does. It could be an individual or an event that stands out to them in a positive or even a negative way. For me however, it was a person named Master Sergeant James Sherrod. I encountered MSgt Sherrod at work and he impacted me in a way that would shape my whole future and military career. I didn’t know it at the time, but he was a blessing in my life, especially when I didn’t want to believe it…
In June 2010, I was a newly promoted Private First Class in the United States Army. I’ve been in the active service for less than a year at that point and I was already outshining my peers. My First Sergeant, the most Senior Enlist Personnel in my Company, came up to me and gave a challenge. This Challenge would result in a complete change of direction in my career, my physical toughness, and my mental capacity to learn. It change my mind set on what it means to be a Soldier. It helped lay down…
Journal 1 After the first two weeks of lecture in Cinema Appreciation I have learned a great deal more about what goes into making a film. I was under the impression that there was one magical camera that could change settings to capture the diverse range of images instantaneously. Active viewing was something, I thought I did, but it wasn’t until I took a step back and saw the variety of shots and how each one of them is put together that I realized that there is more then one way to watch a…
Eating is something all people need to do in order to stay alive. What they choose to eat is entirely up to them. Some choose to be vegetarian only eating plant-based products while others choose to dive into delicious and savory meats. Fogo De Chão Brazilian Steakhouse located on N. Scottsdale Road and E. Lincoln Drive is a restaurant to go when craving the non-vegetarian lifestyle. Vegetarians who are willing to venture out of their zone for one night would be the hardest audience to convince…
