Three years ago the Darden Corporation bought a thousand acres of land that borders the Potowac River in Washam County. While waiting on development opportunities, Darden cut timber to help repay the mortgage loan it took out to buy the land. On March 2, the Washam County Commission proposed an ordinance to establish a 250 foot wide greenway along the south side of the Potowac that will effectively ban both development and timbering on nearly 80 acres of Darden’s land. The same day in an unrelated accident a Darden truck ran over a hunter who was hunting without permission on the company’s land. Darden immediately contacted an attorney in Washam City…

When discussing the topic of teasing, there are a lot of things to consider in respect to when it is considered appropriate or inappropriate. So much of what is considered appropriate is usually between people who have a mutual understanding or a friendship. Most of the time teasing is used in good humor to make each other laugh, or to jab at someone in a friendly manner. When friends or people who are close tease one another, usually there are areas that are considered off limits or things that are considered bad taste to bring up.…
For this week's discussion I chose to focus on the importance of mentorship in nursing. This will focus on identifying the characteristics of mentors that have (or could be) most successful in recruiting and training diverse nurses and nurse faculty. At my facility me and another fellow nurse are head of our units mentoring program. This program that we have implemented focuses on the new graduated nurse and follows them through their first year of nursing. The new graduated nurse is paired up with a seasoned day shift and night shift nurse to answer any questions, facilitate a mentor-new graduate relationship and help orient the new nurse and try to build a strong, confident nurse. We routinely once a month see that the new nurse and their mentor meet to see how thing are going and see if they have any problems or concerns whether it be clinical skills, problems with other staff/physicians, prioritizing, and task management. Through this we are hoping to be able to increase morale, patient satisfaction and increase nurse retention. As new nurses enter the workforce they face a challenge going from student nurse to professional nurse. One must be prepared mentally, physically and emotionally to be a mentor and to set a productive learning environment for the new graduate.…

In the past few years, Zappos has become a company to fear for competitors not only for it’s customer satisfaction but also employee gratification. Unlike any other company, Zappos prides itself on their unordinary training process. Anytime during that 5 week training course an employee can decide that the company is not a good fit and is offered $2,000 for their decision. This reward of $2000 is already enough motivation, at least for me if not everyone, to apply in the first place. Motivate is the drive of one behavior or decisions to achieve one’s success. Zappos has many different ways to motivate their current employee’s and forward perspective applicants. They provide an on-site life coach who doubles as a chiropractor. They make caring for their employees and customers a number one priority and they ensure that the company remains transparent to all its benefactors. Along with these social benefits, there are also basic benefits for working at Zappos like full health-care coverage and a well-structured workweek. I feel that all of the offered benefits that the company provides will lead to even more success for the company. Zappos has a greatly respected loyalty with its employees.…
