I have been working in my company for quite a long time now and I don’t think I have ever seen the employee lounge looking so hospitable to stay in due to some nasty bugs in the couches that just keep on eating through people’s skin whenever someone attempts to stay in there. No matter how sick or tired the employees are, each one of us just can’t stand being in that place to take a rest and we are forced to just stay in our cubicles and try to steal some sleep during break time. It was suggested in the most recent meetings to just throw away those couches and just have make use of mattresses so it would be easier to maintain. Besides, in the eastern countries, it has become a fad to remove bulky furniture like wooden or steel bed, and just use a mattress and place it directly on the floor. It would be much better and much more economical to just put mattresses in the employee lounge so cleaning won’t be much of a problem. It is easier to maintain as well since it doesn’t break like the beds or couches. The management said they will look in to that proposal… but I am just not sure if they would do it.

My days are not normal if you would remove travels from it. Without them I guess my life will never be the same again. Sometimes I consider myself a jet setter in my own words just to get the most of it, live life. My first days at work were not easy, every single flight made me dizzy and whenever our plane would set off the runway my prayers always include calm and peaceful weather. Of course, I’m not the only one praying; my loved ones and the rest of the passengers and the crew do it too. What I love about my job is going to more than the four corners of the world. My social network is always updated with all the albums taken from all of my trips. One of my secrets is keeping an online shop of perfumes, bags and gadgets where my sister and I put up for business. Working as an attendant has all its perks and free travels is just one of them. I love Europe, Americas, the safaris of Africa, the wonders of Asia and the Arbat of Russia. I fell in love with the country the moment I set my foot in the house of Yuri Gagarin and I even asked for a service of a Russian travel agency to have a tour in the tourism country.

In the United Kingdom, the procedure of incorporation is basically called a company formation… it is sometimes called a company registration as well. Under the United Kingdom and the majority of global law, a company or corporation is considered a separate body to the people who own or control the business. Nowadays, almost the majority of the companies in United Kingdom are formed electronically. Simple Company Formations are now done where companies can be created by individuals, specialized agents, canvassers, or even accountants. A lot off solicitors and accountants delegate incorporation out to specialized company formation agents. Most of those agents recommend UK company formations packages for less than a £100, while some others have packages below the cost of paper filing, which remains £20. There are also some LTD Company Formations, where a company has shareholders with limited accountability and the shares may not be offered to the general public, not like those of public limited companies. For small company owners, it may be a wise decision to get in to this kind of process, especially with the world economic fumble. The strength that company formations can provide can definitely help you take proper control of your business assets and fundamentally avoid closure if things get real tough.

I think I am really getting in to this camping thing ever since we went to on a camping trip out to the wilderness and actually experienced getting invaded by a snake inside a tent. The snake was non-poisonous though according to our camp guide so there wasn’t much danger that time, but still, it could have gotten one of us if it was able to take a hold of one our necks, and it was actually seen on top of my head while I was trying to catch a sleep. Anyway, I like it so much that I am planning to have a business about it where I would concentrate more on the campfire cook ware and some other cooking materials that can be used for camping. I found out the hard way that it isn’t easy to cook in an open fire when I actually burned our meal, and burned down the cook ware in the process as well. Then maybe I could also include some camping accessories, as well as some equipment so more people would go to my store. Then finally when all is settled, I’ll try to open a web site for it so I could get more people to buy from me.

I was so upset with the company that we had for the printing of the return address labels because they have printed several hundreds of copies with errors on them and we didn’t even get any apologies about it. we have decided to go to another service provider so we could get things right and get some good service that we deserve as a paying customer. We thought it would be nicer this time to go online and I think it was a good idea too because we were able to find 123print.com, where we were able to get better deals and even better designs. It is really important for us to have the return address labels be printed properly because it is one of our ways to have an easier time monitoring if the mails were able to reach its supposed destination. We want to see to it that this happens because we don’t want some customers and clients telling us that they didn’t receive anything from us so it would be their excuse of not paying their bills, and at the same time, we don’t want mails getting lost because we are really strict when it comes to the payments and we don’t want anything to keep us from giving good services to our customers.

There are some dos and don’ts that need to be considered when dealing with Russian businessmen, the following should serve as a mini guide when dealing with them. First, it is important to shake hands firmly when greeting and leaving your Russian partners and make direct eye contact. Second, try to involve yourself in small talk, which normally involves talk of family and personal matters, before dealing with business. Third is to take a gift that symbolizes the stature of your company and the importance of the impending business deal, preferably an item characteristic of your local area or one that displays the company logo. Fourth, never be afraid to show some emotion, the Russians won’t! Fifth is to not, as the Russian proverb states ‘hurry to reply’, but ‘hurry to listen’… communication is important and always make sure that you know when to listen. Lastly, do not praise or reward anyone in public as it may be viewed with suspicion or cause envy and jealousy. Remember the collective rules over the individual. If that doesn’t work, just go on an adventure travel to Russia to know everything that there is to know. You can even try to jet pilot their fighter jet the mig 29 to really feel how it is to be a Russian.

We have decided to come up with a bi-weekly newsletter for the company to how all of the employees how well or bad we are in every two weeks and we have decided to let everyone have their own input to it so it would be more appealing to them. The idea started when I reported that the bulletin boards were not enough to supply information to everyone, especially since the important details are only placed in the human resources’ board, which is on the top floor. With this, we are currently looking for some printing shops to be partner with so we could have some nice newsletters printed. My cousin told me something about a certain company that handles postcard printing. He said they also do other kinds of printing and I could try to check it out to see if I could have them print our first batch of newsletters so we could go and get things going. This is somewhat a dream come true for me as well because I always wanted to have a career in writing, but circumstances never allowed it and I had to just let it go. With this, I can fulfill that craving and do something for that dream.

We are about to have our first year anniversary in our company and I am planning to give some business gifts to my employees to give them something to remember the first year, on top of the celebration that we are currently cooking up. I already have some few companies to handle it and the bidding would be happening in a few weeks, but I told my associates that if I am able to get a better deal, I will go for it. Honestly, I already have one that I think would be able to give us some exceptional corporate gifts. I found the web site that my friend was talking about and he recommended it to me if in case I need such things. I was able to see the items that they make in their products and I strongly believe that they will be able to give us exactly what we want. I even contacted their customer service and they are easy to talk to unlike the other companies out there that would take three lifetimes before you get someone to talk to you, and another lifetime to have someone competent enough to tell you what you want to get.

The world is currently waiting for things to happen as everyone around the globe watch how things will go with the US economy under Barack Obama. While his presidency connotes change in all aspects and levels in the American society, it also means that he is inheriting what can only be described as the second Great Depression in the history of the Unites States of America. What I fear the most here is to have the same ending as what we had before, being the onset of the war economy of World War II.

Now, I am confident that even before the elections have started, Obama already made plans of getting things in to positive perspective. What bothers me is he would have to do it simultaneously with all the current problems of the United States and getting used to the executive position all at the same time. I am confident that he can do it but the pressure would definitely go in to his head and we might see him getting overwhelmed with all sorts of things. I just hope that he can plan everything out for the sake of everyone in the US, as well as for the whole world.
