...called the reason I got into this business. That and the fairly simple job requirements. When I was getting out of the Army a fairly grey~area opportunity was presented to me. I was looking to secure my future and point my life in the right direction. The guy next to me in the mandatoy class we all had to go theough to end our contacts told me about his wife. I hadnt met her but her story had inspired my corrupt and eager mind. This woman* laura* had gotten into hospice care. For those of you unfamiliar with the field* generally hospice deals with terminally ill and very elderly patients. At that point which was about two years into her contract* she had been left a several thousand dollars* a BMW* and a the bedroom two bathroom HOUSE on the emerald coast. It was mindblowing. So manyu families just give up near the end and the one the patient cares about is the one who seems to care. I dont know Lauras motives. Nobody goes into this soul wrenching practice hoping to make some easy money. Nobody but me. Every Day I put on my plain white uniform and go to work as a sort of bouncer. I dont work at a ritzy night club or private security. The government signs my checks. I dont kick rich kids out of bars. I am often tasked to make sure our clients DONT leave. Hired muscle and a pretty face. Fouty two minutes. I might not have time to get to the gas station to take my morning redbull dosage. This is going to be a long day. This is how they fuck you.

...to health care, President Barrack Obama came up with a universal healthcare program called the Patient Protection and Affordable Health Care Act, also known as Obamacare. Obamacare was signed into law on March, 2010. It has been the most significant repair to the United States healthcare since Medicare and Medicaid passed in 1965. In this paper, the key points that will be discussed are obamacare policy, it pros and cons, if it raises any issues with federalism and the policys effectiveness. Obamacare is aimed at helping the underinsured to gain insurance. With this plan everyone would have health insurance regardless of income, or anything that would stop the person from attaining health insurance. The Affordable Care Act is a watershed in U.S. public health policy. Through a series of extensions of, and revisions to, the multiple laws that together comprise the federal legal framework for the U.S. health-care system, the Act established the basic legal protections that until now have been absent: a near-universal guarantee of access to affordable health insurance coverage, from birth through retirement.(Rosenbaum, 2010) Obamacare is a name used by critics of President Obamas efforts to reform health care. Its a common term used to describe the Patient Protection and Affordable care Act of 2010. ObamaCare contains many benefits, especially for low and middle income families and businesses. ObamaCare also contains some obstacles for larger firm that dont insure their...

...the Green Bay Packers, the Cleveland Browns, and the Minnesota Vikings, once said, “When I look into the eyes of an animal, I do not see an animal. I see a living being. I see a friend. I feel a soul.” Animals were first introduced to circuses in 1782 in a circus known as the Amphithéâtre Anglois in Paris. However, back then the animal that was featured in circuses were primarily horses. In the early 1800’s elephants and large cats started being used. Michigan State University states, “The AWA (Animal Welfare Association) is the only federal law that directly regulates circus animals”(Animal Law). Circus animals dont deserve to be abused for human pleasure and...

Personallyi i well not work for just six hours if i had a family to take care, or even if i just bought a new house. Also im a hard working men i love to make hours at my job, and recieveing extra money does not hurt. I personally would not work just for six hours. People with diffrent jobs well not like this idea because it depends where you work at if you work where you are recieveing minimum wage. People would not like just to work for six hours each day, they might not have enough money to take care of what they need to take care of. They would...

...offer. Im a pretty plain person. A person like me doesnt know how to add things up, or look at things the way others would. Im simple in that im not concerned. Ive never cared about how I look or how I carry myself. I know my strenghts and ive lived by them since the beginning of time. Ive never really given looks a second thought. And the thing this adjustement does, is make you think about all the things you thought unnecessary. You cant really go to someplace for the first place looking lost or drunk or raw. People want glam. People want dressy. People want catchy. Dont give them that, they wont give you a second thought. Its stupid how this works but it does. It works exactly like this. So I could go to university someday straight from bed and people wont know I exist. The other day i'll dress up like a diva and BOOM! Im the hot topic. But I can live on without being concerned. I can live on without creating an impression. I dont care for it. I care for work. I care for capability and ability. I care for the non material things people have to offer. That is where im different, because people now adays, they just cant do this. They cant bear looking average. Everyone wants to steal the lime light, to get glory, be hailed and admired. The shortcut is 'look good'. If they dont have these looks, they create them! They'll pull off a nicely crafted attitude. And they'll work their arse off to get noticed. But is it worth it? Ive seen girls dying to be noticed...

...when it comes to survival of the human species one of the things we do as infants is try to capture the attention of our caregiver in order to receive care and attention. Attachment security is the term we would use for describing this. This of course would be something innate, something natural that we as babies would use for protection "The propensity to make strong emotional bonds to particular individuals, a basic component of human nature". (Bowlby) Sometimes this is not always provided to an infant, and if it isn’t, it will supposedly affect the individual later in life. According to Bowlby "The operation of this system is affected by an individual’s social experiences, especially with early caregivers, resulting in measurable individual differences in attachment security". Attachment is a special emotional relationship that involves an exchange of comfort, care, and pleasure. Not only does attachment security aid in survival but it also has a huge influence on development, our behaviors and relationships later in life. In the article Attachment Security, Compassion and Altruism a series of studies were done by which it is claimed that compassionate feelings and values, and altruistic behaviors are also affected by the "attachment behavioral system." What I understand from this is if you are neglected of care as an infant it will affect how compassionate or altruistic you are later in life. Theoretically wanting to enhance compassion and altruism in the real...

..."Before I Was, There Were . . .” My parents who have raised me and loved me my whole life. My father was originally married once before but got a divorce when i was young and soon remarried afterwards. Both of my parents had really tough lives growing up which is the reason why they push me and tell me to appreciate everything i get even if its not that great. My parents have paved the way for my future based on their experiences. They have made me the person i am today. My dad Keese Shannon Adams was born in Elizabeth New Jersey. My dad was part dominican, indian and african american. He was also the second oldest of 5 children. His family was divided when his parents divorced. He was then shuffled back and forth between parents. He eventually moved to Augusta, Georgia to attend a very prestigious school for gifted children with his mother and two brothers.My father had a very tough life growing up. He was poor, he lived in the ghetto, and he even witnessed many deaths around him. Growing up was very tough for my dad knowing that he moved out the house and lived on his own at a young age. I've looked up to my father my whole life I can talk to him about anything because hes been there for me no matter what. My mom has too but its not the same because im a boy we have that father son type of bond its weird sometimes but its also pretty cool. I dont have to be afraid to talk to my father about anything he never judges me but instead gives me advice from his own experiences...
