Many people during the time of being employed may realize a discrepancy on their contributed time due to unethical treatments at their work. These discrepancies may happen due to unethical conducts of their managers or supervisors deducting time from the employees contributed working hours, whether it is for the reason of disciplinary actions or miscalculated times that should be managed very carefully by the management.
These times may come out of, or may get deducted from the accumulated "sick-time"; "vacation- time"; accummelated "holiday-time"; etc., to name a few. However, many times the employees may also complain of not getting their "over-time" if they have worked some extra hours as well. But the problem remains that employees may miss many of their employees hours that may have gone through the "cracks", either not get paid for them or their hours may get deducted without employees ever noticing it. There has been many cases that employees have complained that due to the reasoning of the manager or supervisor their work-time have been deducted or not added, and the employee would have a very hard time to prove such mistreatment to the authorities.
The point remains that when a person works for a company; business, or an organization, their professional time spent at the employer apparently remains with the employer, and what they get paid for is at the mercy of the employer's calculation and judgment.
If a person tries to have their own business, they may have some control over their pay of course, but what remains is then, how they manage their time and budget their finances, including their accounting and paying their taxes properly. And with a bigger business or as they expand, one has to be a good team-leader to place responsible team members with their business, so the money that they make and their finances to remain efficient.

Should I sign it ?!
Different kinds of documents are given to people to sign at different times, and people may get many times concerned that whether they should sign such "contracts" that are given to them.
There are many times questions being risen that whether or not such documents are binding or not as a contract, even if they are not signed. For example, an employer can give a notice to an employee warning that some money may get deducted from his or her paycheck due to some incident at work. But whether or not the employee signs such notice the employer can deduct the money from the employee's paycheck. However, if the employee disagree's with such action, he or she could take the employer to court demanding the unfairness of the deduction. In such scenario the question remains that, if the judge gives the judgement to the employer, Does it mean that since the employee's story has not been accepted, the employer ultimately is the one who is the winner, due to the fact that employer is the owner or the payer who is compensating the employee monetarily?
In such world that we live in, apparently, the owner or the employer is the one who may have the upper hand with the story of the incident(s) that may happen at work, and employees may have a hard time to go after to prove the truth at work!

Is it fair for me to take the medication ?!
Time and time again people who are stressed, go to their doctor or psychiatrist and complain about their stresses at work or employer mistreating them. Usually there are Stress Groups in place for these people to attend to; however, no matter what, these employees are highly suggested to take stress medications along the way.
The ironic thing however is that the employers are not trained properly or due to budget cuts or discrimination factors and what ever the reason, there are a lot of unethical issues that are not being attended to on regular basis at work environments. The shortcut however is that the employees need the money and they do not want to get fired and just try to continue to go to work, so they readily take the medication(s) prescribed to them by their doctors.
But the main question that arises is, if there are many unethical issues going on at work by the employers, how come the employees are the one sedating themselves or being in denial (by the effect of stress medication that they are taking) at work?

Could we have a Global culture?
It is imminent that we could have a Global culture Based on the efforts of our Global education. We must be able to collaborate and not just compete in this era, due to acceleration of our transport of information that changes our ideas about the unifying perception of our world.
It would be foolish to keep the mentality of our tradition that its only concern was territorial while egotistical. Today's world cannot be stopped but embraced, due to the fact that once the awareness has taken place, one cannot pretend and be in denile any longer, unless people are trained to do so.
Individual responsibility cannot be pushed on others, but it's genes must survive by our persistent upkeep and survival of such species of committed individuals as warriors of justice. The orchestration of our global unity will bring about the Universal outreach that one may wish to make our 1st contact with our nighbor(s) in this UNIVERSAL entity.

Who is criticizing Me ?!
Is it a priest or a rabbi who is the child molester?;is it a an addicted psychologist or medical doctor or a lawyer who passed the exams with flying colors and has a lot of debt and is frustrated to get rich quick and is depressed?; is it a teacher in school who cares more about his/her salary, my grammar and punctuations than my talent & strengths or my Ability(s)?; is it a salesperson who is more concerned about his/her commission, rather than my budget, and what tools I may need to have a better life?; is it a politician who is being supported by greedy founders who are supporting him to get what they want by putting him/her in the office?; is it a parent who has an unplanned or unwanted child and now is putting pressure on the son or daughter to be normal like others or better than others?????
Do we ever check people's background, their integrity, their intent or motive before we value their criticisms of us? Of course if we don't have the confidence, or know any better we may just take other people's criticism(s) readily without being a good critic ourselves. It takes a long time to develop confidence and being a productive critic. We must constantly educate ourselves, and verify and do our due diligence. Most importantly, we must be honest to ourselves and others, and that takes a lot of courage which is a skill to be developed over a lifetime..... And remember, it needs to be benefitting me & you, and NOW our GlobalWorld.

Is it profitable?!
Today more than ever it seems something, anything, should be profitable to be considered. Whether it is an idea; thought; plan; or even a person.....
People keep questioning our moral values, our ethical integrity; etc., but may I ask you this, can moral and ethical issues be profitable?!
In this global-economy, since the inflation is getting faster and faster out of hand, the value of "money" is becoming worthless faster and faster and in order to keep up with such rate (race), there is no choice but to keep thinking about "if it is worth it."
Tip: It is not worth anything, unless you put a Value on it, if IT has any value to you. And at this time, in this GlobalWorld we need to go beyond our regular "conventional" wisdom....
This is a revolutionary time for our global-economy and we need to be Innovative with our Globale-Wisdom that could change OUR systems of compensation that could bring VALUE to OUR Worthiness.

Is my English good?, Is my Spelling correct?, Is my Grammer right?!
In this Global-World day in and day out we hear many people with many different backgrounds talk with many different accents; different grammar usage, and
Various dictations that may be "officially" incorrect. Many times we are more concerned about how "correctly" they are communicating (in writing or conversationally) than what their MESSAGE is!
In this Information-Age, since the speed of relaying information is getting faster and faster, less people are concerning themselves with taking thier time to "spell-check" and "grammar-correct" than making sure their message has reached the destination on time!
Tip: In this global-world, we may have to speed up our "wisdom-department" a notch, so we could Unify our Global-Humanity as well, so we could understand each other better and faster than focusing on the "tools of communication". And Our technology is getting better and better along the way as well, to hopefully merge these communication-gaps ASAP.

Who is making the Dicisions?!
There are managers, supervisors, government officials, and our leaders who make decisions for many "under" them. Have you ever wondered if these individuals are making the "right" decisions based on the wisdom they may have, or whether these decisions are based on th accurate calculations of what must be done to get the job done? Or may be the decisions are ego-based and is strictly done for selfish reasons (whether is money; or maintainings one's power and position).
If one is a business-owner, they may do basically do what they want in their own business, but what about an adult who is a parent and makes egotistical decisions for the benefit of themselves and not a decisions that would benfit their child's future?
Another example would be a government official who may be a manager or supervisor, or even the president that may make decisions based on protecting their position. Especially in such positions many employee's who work "under" them (or people), their lives may be ruined due to unwise (or stupid)decisions made.
Tip: If you are unfortunate enough to suffer the consequences of such decision making(s), you may question or point out, or give feedback to such decisions. If no changes made IMMIDIETLY, do not keep your hopes up, because you are not in power! You may work on finding, or being in the team that would be more supportive to you. And if you decide to stay and suffer the consequences, take it as an experience while you keep your eyes open for the Right opportunity to make your move.
