Listening.

Listening is a great asset to have. It reminds me of the telephone game, where one person whispers into another persons ear and they pass the secret around in a circle and it never ends up as what you originally said. If people would take the time to actually listen a lot of problems would be solved. Sometimes people are hearing what others say, but they don't take the time to actually listen and comprehend what another person is trying to tell them. Listening helps get the job done right. I work in an office where everything is about listening. We listen to our patients hearts make sure everything is normal. We listen to our patients lungs, make sure everything is normal. So sometimes in this situation, listening could cause life or death. If there are any abnormalities we report them. If we didn't listen well enough to hear these abnormalities then it could cause some of our patients to get worse. Other situations should be so severe when it comes to listening also, listening could get you a job, or the lack of listening could cost you your job. Listening to a person speak shows that you care about what they are trying to tell you. It shows that you actually do want to get the job done and to get the job done right.

Facebook

My father is an accountant. Recently he has considered making a Facebook account for his business. It was interesting watching the slideshow presentation for Facebook in our class. Facebook can get your business out there. I think it would be a wonderful idea for my fathers business to get a Facebook account. People are on Facebook on a regular basis and there are so many different kinds of people on Facebook. You can "become a fan" of a business. I see it regularly, more and more businesses are becoming a part of Facebook. I also hear on the radio that some businesses even giving away items only to those people who are friends with them on Facebook. The best part about Facebook is, so many different people use Facebook, not just younger people, but also grown ups. My mother loves Facebook. She also has so many different friends on it. I see people's mothers, fathers, and even grandparents on Facebook. Facebook allows businesses to connect with their customers and future customers. It would be a great way to increase clientele. Which in turn will increase profit, and in the business world that is what the business owners want, more revenue.
Technology is continuing to grow, every day there seems to be something new for people to use. it would be a good idea for my father's business to keep up with the technology, and get a Facebook account.
