    Dorian Peterson, Branch ManagerFeature Films for FamiliesMurray, Utah 84107

    Dear Mr. Peterson:

    I would like to apply for the floor manager position available at Feature Films forFamilies. I feel that my three years of experience with the company would be more thanadequate and also beneficial as compared to hiring someone from outside thecompany. I also believe that my educational background would be advantageous for theestablishment.

    I started working for the company early in the year 2012 and have since beenpromoted multiple times. Over the years I have learned many of the inner workings of

    the organization and have become proficient at my current position. I understand as afloor manager many of the requirements are the same as being a sales agent with just afew added responsibilities. I have talked with other floor managers throughout thecompany and believe those responsibilities would be easy to accomplish. As comparedto the last floor manager I am more organized and better under pressure.

    My educational background could also be useful in many ways. I am currentlystudying at Salt Lake Community College and will soon have a degree in ComputerScience. Most importantly I have taken courses in Information Technology and could fixmany of the issues agents have with their computers with ease. I have also excelled atcourses in English, psychology, and business and I feel that information I have learnedin each of them could be useful for this position.

    I appreciate the opportunity to apply for the opening of the floor managerposition. Enclosed is my resume which will highlight my past work experience as well asmy educational background and any other qualifications. If you would like to reach meyou can do so [email protected] look forward to hearing from you.

    Sincerely,

    X

    Sabrina Jones

    Opioid OverdoseCollege is a great time to experiment with many things. One of these things for many of your peers is drug use.

    The opioid drug class includes drugs such as heroin, morphine, oxycodone (Oxycontin), methadone,

    hydrocodone (Vicodin), codeine, and many other prescription pain medications. The United States has beenexperiencing what is considered an epidemic of prescription drug abuse for many years now. Between the years

    1999-2008 prescription opioid overdose was responsible for more deaths than both heroin and cocaine

    overdoses combined. In the event that one of your friends was overdosing on prescription opioids or heroin, doyou know what to do?

    Parts or Materials needed: A telephone and Naloxone

    Safety Information: Many harm reduction programs throughout the US will give out Naloxone, but if there arenot any near you Naloxone can also be prescribed by a trusted physician or ordered by a pharmacy. Anyone can

    acquire or administer Naloxone, it is administered through either an intranasal spray or intramuscular injection.

    Naloxone helps to wake the person up and keep them breathing until medical professionals have arrived. Any

    open vials of Naloxone should be disposed of 6 hours after being opened.Steps

    1. Rub to wake-With your knuckles rub the persons sternum to try and get them to breathe and wake up.

    2. Call 911-Give the operator the address and location of the person as well as letting them know that the

    person is not breathing. When medical professionals arrive let them know what drugs the person took in

    you know and whether you administered Naloxone3. Give them mouth to mouth- In the event that they stop breathing entirely put the person on their back

    and pull their chin forward to keep the airway open; put one hand on the chin and tilt their head back

    while pinching their nose to keep it closed.

    4. Administer Naloxone-For intranasal: Squirt half the vial into each nostril, make a fine mist by pushing

    the applicator fast. For injectable: Always start injections from a new vial Inject into the arm or upper

    part of thigh muscle one cc at a time.

    5. Keep them breathing- Check to make sure they are breathing and continue mouth to mouth if they

    cannot breathe on their own. Administer another dose of Naloxone if they cannot wake up or are not

    breathing more than ten breaths per minute.

    6. Position the person to lay on their side- In the event that the person vomits, this position will make it so

    the person cannot inhale their vomit.

    7. Follow the medical professionals advice- Once they arrive they may think the person that has overdosed

    should go to the Emergency Room, make sure they follow the advice of the professional.

    Overdoses can be a scary experience but they are a common occurrence. If you follow the directions above you

    could help save a life!

    Workplace CultureOrganizational culture in the tech industry is a very unique and intriguing thing. The techindustry is highly successful and is often considered unmatchable in both innovationand productivity. It is common for high-tech companies to appear casual, and althoughin many ways they are, these companies are known for getting things done quickly.

    When working in this industry you can expect aggressive deadlines and long hours. Theemployees are highly dedicated and are loyal to both their work and coworkers. Theindustry has an immensely mobile talent base, this allows for some concepts to beshared openly between other companies in the industry and the establishment ofimpending technology. Since the industry is known for getting things done quickly it isnot surprising that many companies are risk takers. These companies understand that itis better to have a product out than to have it perfect. They also realize that success isoften produced from failure. They know that most issues can be dealt with by havingconfidence in their employees, effort, and appropriate methods.

    The biggest risk is not taking any risk. In a world thats changing really quickly,the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks. - Mark Zuckerberg,

    CEO of Facebook

    Employee InitiativeMost companies recognize developers as professionals and give the proper latitudewithin their areas of expertise to implement a solution. Good cultures should alwaysencourage individual initiative but exactly how much latitude an employee gets generallydepends on their level of experience and expertise.Division of power

    Albeit there is someone running as the head of the organization, successful companiesin the computer science industry have strayed away from giving them all of the power.Old planning and development methodologies can create adversarial environmentsbetween developers and management because of the unrealistic believe thattechnology development can be completely planned out in advance. This approach isnot only inefficient but creates stressful work environments that take away theenjoyment of building and delivering great products. Luckily the agile developmentmovement is improving this situation but currently the best methodologies to remedythis are Lean and Kanban.

    Gender InequalityLess than one in ten companies can claim that a third of their engineers are women.Women are also more likely to leave the industry as compared to their malecounterparts. This has always been an issue present in the tech industry but as it is nowbeing openly addressed we may see a turning point in the near future. Many women inthe industry feel as if they have a more difficult time earning their peers respect. It isbelieved that gender and ethnic diversity enhances innovation and decision making.With any hope inequality for women in this industry will eventually come to an end.
