...An Appropriate Choice Skulbrick Colorado Mesa University An Appropriate Choice For me, an appropriate career choice is that of a substance abuse counselor (SAC). Teaching people with substance abuse and dependence issues to help themselves would give me significant job satisfaction. I have always been interested in the behavior of intoxicated people, the biological mechanisms that result in lowered inhibitions, diminished reasoning, and a tendency toward violence. I seek to understand the biopsychosocial variables that combine to facilitate the consumption of mood altering substances (Wallace, 2012). Additionally, I would like to develop insight into the process of addiction and the evidence based methods of treatment. My observations of impaired individuals tend to convince me of biopsychosocial reasons for substance abuse and associated behaviors. Therefore, my dream is to gain the knowledge to address the underlying motivation for substance abuse and addiction. (Walters & Rotgers, 2012). Employment Outlook As Miller, Scarborough, Clark, Leonard, and Keziah (2010) reported, the credentialing requirements for SACs vary significantly between the states. They...

...The role of a systems analyst is vital to the success of any organization. In this role, the systems analyst is responsible for being the “liaison” between the technology department and all other departments within the company (Laudon & Laudon, 2011, p. 68). There are several key skills and characteristics necessary to be an effective systems analyst. The person performing this role needs to have excellent communication skills, planning and organizational skills, and managerial skills. While the systems analyst must constantly continue his education as it pertains to new software and hardware systems, there are other roles an analyst is expected to fill. The analyst needs to establish a working relationship with other departments. This allows the analyst to obtain data to assist with the department’s information technology needs. A characteristic that would be demonstrated in this area is that of teamwork. The analyst has to put the needs of the company first and be able to interact with all types of people (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, n.d., p. 5). The position relies on the ability to solve problems within the business. Therefore, the analyst needs to have a clear understanding of how the business operates. By meeting with the various departments, the analyst is able to understand what problem exists and what options are available to resolve the problem (Laudon & Laudon, 2011, p.381). The analyst needs to decide which option will work best for the department...

...true goals or passions. Once I found out I was having a kid everything changed. I found myself contemplating my future and started to focus on establishing goals for my professional and personal life. With my new found focus I started to actually care about the quality of my work and also started to take on new responsibilities at my job. Due to this new found focus I was quickly promoted to a trainer and 3 months later I was promoted to a manager. To my surprise the role of manager came naturally and I had immediate success. It turns out I have a passion for leading people, driving production, increasing efficiency in processes and found fulfilment in training and developing my direct reports. After reviewing the Occupational Outlook Handbook the two careers that I found that closely combine everything mentioned above are Management Analyst and Top Executive. Plus, both career options can be quite lucrative. Furthermore, these two career choses are inline with the results from the Career Cluster Assessment taken on the Georgia Career Information Center website. The first career I will explore is Management Analyst. The Bureau of Labor Statistics states that the primary role of a Management Analyst is to propose ways to improve efficiency in effort to reduce cost and increase revenues thus leading to wider profit margins which ties in perfectly with some of the task that I enjoyed completing at all my prior employer. Per the O*Net Online website a majority of positions in...

...evidence from a crime scene and storing it in the proper conditions to preserve it. Another task of forensic science technicians is to keep records and prepare reports. The reports would detail the findings, the investigative methods, and laboratory techniques used. A forensic science technician may have to use chemicals to examine latent prints and compare them to developed prints known in databases. Sometimes forensic science technicians testify in court about investigative techniques or about analytical methods or findings. It is very important for forensic science technicians to photograph all evidence collected before and after it is moved. References Bureau of Labor Statistics. (2009). Science technicians.

...Anesthesiologist An Anesthesiologist is the physician who cares for a patient before, during, and after surgery. They are responsible for providing the right amount of anesthesia needed for a person to stay asleep during their operation. They are also required to test a patient’s reaction to the anesthesia. Different people require different amounts of anesthesia, and may have a bad reaction to the type they are given. They are given the opportunity to actually get to know the patient and have a connection with them unlike some of the physicians on their case. The degree required to become an Anesthesiologist is a Doctoral or Professional degree. The job outlook from 2012-2022 is currently 18%. This percent is higher than average. A Physician in general can become higher and more important in their field. They can create new discoveries. This adds body to their resume, and also helps medical research at the same time. Physicians usually work a lot longer than the average person. Although they may not practice medicine after the age of 60, they will mentor new doctors or teach at a University. The average amount of money an Anesthesiologist makes a year is $230,350 or $110 an hour. An Anesthesiologist coming out of school would make about $157,650 a year. A person in this field should have the basic reading and writing skills. They should be able to diagnose diseases or disorders, give health instructions, treating physical or mental problems, and using medical or dental equipment...

...McDonald’s for failing to reduce the amount of trans fat the company used in its cooking process. In 2002, McDonald’s had publicly announced that, by February 2003, they would voluntarily begin using an “improved cooking oil” to prepare their fried foods. Do so would significantly reduce the amount of trans fat in their products by 48% ("Mcdonald's exposed for," 2004). McDonald’s withdrew their promise and did not switch over to a cooking oil with less trans fat, nor did they reveal to consumers that the conversion did not take place. The company claims that they changed their minds when customers began complaining that they did not want the taste of McDonald’s food to change (Horovitz, 2007). BTF accused McDonald’s of false advertising, deceiving consumers, and not taking the health of their consumers into consideration. In their lawsuit, BTF claimed that “McDonald's failed to make clear to customers that the type of oil used to fry its foods (which contains TFAs) had not been changed” ("Responsible shopper," 2005). BTF did not seek monetary damages, they only asked that McDonald’s publicize their failure to switch over to the healthier cooking oil and make that conversion as soon as possible. McDonald’s claimed that it was taking longer than expected to change to a new oil, but they were working on implementing the exchange. They did not provide any information as to how long they expected this to take. The company’s Chief Operating Officer stated that, "While speedy implementation...

...Organic oils Organic oils are produced in remarkable diversity by plants, animals, and other organisms through natural metabolic processes. Lipid is the scientific term for the fatty acids, steroids and similar chemicals often found in the oils produced by living things, while oil refers to an overall mixture of chemicals. Organic oils may also contain chemicals other than lipids, including proteins, waxes and alkaloids. Lipids can be classified by the way that they are made by an organism, their chemical structure and their limited solubility in water compared to oils. They have a high carbon and hydrogen content and are considerably lacking in oxygen compared to other organic compounds and minerals; they tend to be relatively nonpolar molecules, but may include both polar and nonpolar regions as in the case of phospholipids and steroids.[6] Mineral oils Crude oil, or petroleum, and its refined components, collectively termed petrochemicals, are crucial resources in the modern economy. Crude oil originates from ancient fossilized organic materials, such as zooplankton and algae, which geochemical processes convert into oil.[7] The name is a misnomer, in that minerals are not the source of the oil - ancient plants and animals are. Mineral oil is organic. However, it is classified as "mineral oil" instead of as "organic oil" because its organic origin is remote (and was unknown at the time of its discovery), and because it is obtained in the vicinity of rocks, underground...
