Jobs

A job is a group of tasks performed by an employee in exchange for being paid. A job consists in responsibilities and duties. People are evaluated for what they do.

Some jobs need physical skills, some jobs need social skills and some need mental skills.
For example:
A builder needs physical skills in order to perform his job.

A receptionist needs social skills to communicate with people that come into the reception.

A doctor needs mental skills in order to diagnose his  patients’ symptoms.

A person should choose a job according to what he/she likes, wants to do and his/her aptitudes.
The choice shouldn’t be done just because it is an easy job.

Now we are going to talk about a mechanics’ job:
A mechanic is a person who builds and repairs machinery, they mostly work with cars and motorcycles.
To be a mechanic you need a high school education or general education development, you need to enroll in a vocational education program, a certificate, you need to receive employer training and then you can be a mechanic.
Although it is a though route to take it will be worth it if you like your job and enjoy doing it.

Sorry for posting this late but it didn't actually get posted yesterday and i didn't notice until now.

Women and their Looks


We should always care about our appearance so we can feel good with ourselves. Everybody has his/her personality and appearance. We should try to change the things we don’t like so we can feel good because everybody is different.

To improve our physical appearance we should have some daily cares, like our hygiene , take daily showers, wash your clothes, use moisturizer, brush your teeth several times a day, work out, eat healthy food… This way we’ll like our physical appearance.

Mary Kay
She is a business woman. She created a foundation called Mary Kay foundation, thinking of every woman who has cancer and suffers from domestic violence. she wants to end  violence.
During her life she helped a lot of women that didn't have self-esteem and financial support. She was a kind person.
Mary Kay is a beautiful and elegant woman, always with a great physical appearance.


Feel good is to be happy!
