Medical Exam at St. Luke's (April 19 - 21, 2016)

Medical Exam at St. Luke's (April 19 - 21, 2016)

April 19, 2016

Yesterday I told my teachers that I won't be attending class  (April 19 and 20) because I'll be managing some important family papers here in Manila. We filed and applied for parole under the FWVP program of the United States wherein we'd be under parole for three years and we'll be able to stay there for the said time so that we could take care of our grandmother (whose husband, my grandfather is a war veteran). We took a bus going to Caloocan and arrived their ar 4 P.M. We rode an LRT and arrived at Hotel Sorriente (which was only one block away from St. Luke's) at 5 P.M. We shopped at Purgold downstairs for some groceries and food to eat during our stay there for the next two days. I then bought Chooks To Go for our dinner and some utensils as well.




April 20, 2016

I woke up at 4 A.M. to get ready for our exam. I took a bath and changed my clothes, made sure I was looking neat and presentable and also prepared breakfast for me and my parents (only brought out the pandesal we bought from yesterday and heated some water from the provided heater). We went to the clinic at 6 A.M. and waited on queue. We were finished by 9 A.M. We had our brunch at a nearby deli and went back to the hotel for some power naps. We decided later on to walk around and see the sights. Particularly the local malls. My parents decided to watch a movie while I stayed at an arcade and just waited for them to finish.

April 21, 2016

We had our 2nd appointment at 9 A.M. for immunization and vaccinations. We got out by 11 A.M. due to the long queue and had our lunch at a nearby McDonald's. By 2 P.M. we got on the bus for Olongapo where we arrived at 5 P.M. I've met up with my partner to tell him the news, we ate at Ohmar's Cheesecake and did karaoke on Timezone, Harbor Point.

A Brief Introduction To Ethics

What is Ethics? Ethics is the designation between good and bad, the right and the wrong, the virtuous and immoral, evil and the just. Yet, at the same time this can either be based on society's norms, established by their founders and were developed over time, or be one's own judgment and sense. To be ethical is to be able to perform tasks that are efficient, just, rational and must be fit to society's standards of ethics. And by conclusion, ethics is the division of what society deems right and wrong. The right, being what is beneficial and desirable for society and the wrong, the undesirable and what shall bring its fall The ever so called "Golden Rule"   Don't do unto others what you don't want others to do unto you. This golden rule speaks of equality and justice. Should you wish to be respected and treated fair, thou must also do so to others. It teaches us on being civil and kind, and also serves as a reminder that we must suppress our inner e...
What're the benefits of ethics? Well it can be beneficial in a way that it molds me to become a better and more functional member of society. As ethics guide me through my daily life, of course it lies weigh to my morality. As such, I become a rational and believable being, following society's laws and acting for the good of all. We have different theories of ethical behavior, one in particular is utilitarianism. Utilitarianism is the act of doing what will benefit the many. In my belief this is what I possess for I prefer to commit to a cause and sacrifice my interests for the sake of making everyone happy and content. Although I find it disappointing that there aren't many people who appreciate this. But all in all, if it's for a greater cause then I'd be willing to make a sacrifice.
Workplace Do's & Don'ts Now for example let's say I have a job where I face different customers everyday who've different personalities. I can either be a call center agent, a clerk, a concierge or some guy at customer service. As a person who has to deal with new people everyday I have a duty and responsibilities to uphold. In general I have to be someone who speaks of integrity. Each and every word I shall say must be vital and necessary to the case at hand, and must not speak ill whenever I'm engaging with a customer. The following are common tips of what and what not to do whenever present in a workplace: 1. "Punctuality is important." Avoid being late and if you can't go to work, then  at least inform them a few days before. In case of emergencies, call your supervisor and explain him your situation. 2. "Be considerate to your fellow employees." Example is you're working on a sales company, whenever you see a workmate ...
