Work Place

>> Saturday, April 21, 2012

In my work we’re not sure if we’re still staying in the same office address next year because my boss instructed me to extend our contract for 2 consecutive quarters only. I was glad that we didn’t transfer to Makati City because that would mean 2-3 hours time allowance in the morning just to get there. It would also mean that I’ll be too much late going home.

Right after college graduation I stayed away from any job opportunities on that place because it’s not only far from home but will cost me a lot of expenses too. If only I had one of those mobile homes for sale then maybe I could have placed it near my work place and I will not worry about the long distance and travel time. Anyway I really liked those models of mobile homes – their style and quality it offers.

Employee Monitoring Software

>> Friday, April 20, 2012

There are various ways of knowing the efficiency and skills of your employees but sometimes even the most common evaluation form cannot gauge the true working capabilities of officers and staff. I’ve served as Human Resource Officer for several years and I have many observations on the employees attitude and behaviour. Employees are observed and evaluated by their immediate supervisor and salary increase will be based from the report given by superiors.

Most of the times the evaluation is accurate and speaks honestly of the attitude, skills and capabilities of employees but few times evaluation is not that fair. There are cases that evaluation is shadowed by favouritism and that report would be good if relationship between superior and staff is good. Well as suggested by our IT specialist then we can have Employee Monitoring Software to ensure that fair evaluation will be at hand. Monitoring can be a good advantage not only to employers but to employees as well because all will be monitored and observe fairly.

With the help of Employee Monitoring Software the employer should be able to control remote employees from anywhere. My Team Monitor will be able to provide their clients with employer interface and employees interface wherein both will be given access to program that will monitor their worked hours, activity index and logouts due to inactivity. The employees can set their starting hours and click whether they’re working or on break time.

My Team Monitor’s Employee Monitoring Software is programmed to increase employees productivity because it gives discipline on working hours. This is very important in work who have continuous deadline to meet and those in manufacturing services also. Generally it can be used by any employer so they watch over their employees working time habits, their efficiency and productivity without being in near proximity.

Good Buy at Gadgets’ Store

>> Wednesday, April 4, 2012

I was in Cyberzone yesterday searching for an External Hard Drive to store my documents and pictures. I had a good buy in one of the stores there and I was so happy that I was able to buy the best brand they have at a price lower than offered in most stores. I patted myself that I had the patience to round all the stores and canvassed all the prices before going back to the one with the best price. I wanted an affordable EHD but I don’t want a second quality brand. I was lucky to have both quality and affordability in my gadget shopping yesterday.

I also canvassed prices for netbooks as I really want Ed to have his own so he can carry it with him whenever he needs it in school. I want everything in good planning so it’s my habit to list all my wish gadgets then canvass and save money to buy all in priority lists. I buy all gadgets in my online writing income because that’s where most of my money are coming from and where I could put in extra expenses. My salary in my regular job is for our basic necessities at home so it will not be spent on any second priority list.

Having the Same Interest in Sports

My second daughter Gen took after my interest in joining and playing various sports. I’ve played football, volleyball, table tennis, bowling and some other sports when I was in college and still single. I became too busy when I got married and had kids so I stopped my sports. I missed it and I gained pounds because of lack of sports activities that’s why I returned to walking and badminton. That’s the least I could do with myself, I can’t fit it in my schedule and I had no choice.

Now I’m seeing myself in my daughters especially Gen who in her primary schooling represented the school and joined chess competition amidst her academic competitions. She’s a very competitive student and she always tries to achieve whatever goal she has. The other day we were talking about sports and they made me tell stories about my football sports in college. I told them that I want a fantasy football trophies then but it’s only a dream because my best sports are tennis and bowling. I’m just a middle range player in football and it’s only a hobby sports for me I never pursued playing it after school. Well obviously it runs in the blood now that they also like most of the sports I love.

Better Conferencing Services

>> Tuesday, April 3, 2012

Working in corporate office is a lot more advanced now than in the past generation where setting up a meeting could take few days or more than one week because each member should fit it in their schedule before they can commit attendance. A conference cannot be done immediately because there are few people that will not be able to come. As meeting delays can affect the operation I’m glad that scheduling conference is not that hard with audio conferencing services which can give any company a way of meeting up members even without their physical appearance.

When I learned this thing more than three years ago I was really glad because on my past work I always have to communicate with our international suppliers and clients. With this kind of conferencing services meeting up with them is easier as you only have to set the day and time and you’ll all be there. With less time on the conference we’ll assume that there’s more time for the operations side of the business.

Free Online Shopping Lists

>> Saturday, March 31, 2012

Women love shopping especially those working women who need to have their things stylish and fashionable even at work. I have observed this thing as when there’s a mall wide sale you can see a lot of them coming from the office dropping by the malls to buy their working accessories like shoes, bags and other needed things. My Mom used to tell us that working women’s investment in working are shoes, bags and clothes so we must not deprive ourselves from buying those things when we need them though we must also consider a justifiable budget because if you splurge on a shopping spree it’s not anymore a necessity but a luxury.

Anyway for me shopping is not always enjoyable especially if there are plenty of people buying and grabbing discounted items on sale. I easily back out on such environment and most of the times prefer shopping online with the use of my online account. Just yesterday my family dropped of my office and we went to various gadgets store for our desktop and laptop’s accessories. We got what we need but we got tired easily and wished to go home immediately unlike when I shop online on sites like Sacramento classifieds and some other shopping sites I don’t have to walk to various stores to get what I need.

Well it’s even easier with the help of free shopping list search engine which guides the user to list of information and shopping sites where they can avail of good buys, competitive deals and discounts like Baltimore classifieds. It’s for people who want to get the most out of their hard earned money without having to visit and canvas through various stores just to get the best deals. It’s the best way to shop without consuming all your effort and time. It’s comfortable and convenient to shop in the premises of your own home. It’s safer and secured without the hassles of too many people shopping at the same time.

Beautiful Blooms

>> Thursday, March 22, 2012

My Mom looks very happy when she goes out her garden this morning because the yellow blooms are lining up prettily in the pathway. Hubby suddenly developed penchant for gardening and lined up petite yellow blooms along the path from the gate to our terrace. After two months of caring they’re now blooming so beautifully. Maybe he got the ideas from his older brother who does some landscaping on his mother’s home. Their garden in Montalban is huge and various flowering shrubs grow prettily all year round. 

We actually got most of our plants and flowers from that garden because they always have spare for us. I’m now thinking of having planter at one corner of our garden or near the window to enhance the front view of our house and to give a greener effect on the whole place. We’re situated at the side of the national road and it would help in giving us a cleaner and unpolluted air.

Getting Through Annual Physical Exam

>> Saturday, March 17, 2012


I had my annual physical examination last month and thanked God that all laboratory tests are good and within the normal range. I have to admit that at first I’m a little nervous especially that my last general check up was several years ago when I gave birth to my youngest kid. All my hospital visits in the past was only for my pregnancies and after my last delivery I haven’t visited the hospital for my own examination and test.

I actually dread dropping by hospitals because white walls and white uniforms make me remember how hard it is to be hospitalized be it birth deliveries or sickness. When I saw that the clinic has staff that wear scrub tops with designs I suddenly felt comfortable and calmer. On my succeeding visits for other tests and check up I’m more relaxed and braver than before.

Back to Work

>> Saturday, March 10, 2012

When I started working again I realized that my two years working at home not only gave me so much blessing financially but physical as well. I gained so much pounds that my office clothes didn’t fit me at all. I only have few remaining which were big for me in the past but I promised myself not to buy many clothes until I lose some pounds. It was hard to believe that the clothes I used to wear before I resigned in my former job are not my size anymore.

I read about several ways on slimming down and included reviews on diet regimen, diet pills and browsed on http://sideeffectsofdietpills.net/decaslim/ to know what pills are safe and effective. Well most that I read has good ingredients and no side effects but I want to read the user’s feedback on the products to make sure of the quality and how it can be of help to consumers. Doctor’s consultation though is of vital importance before using any diet pills.

Tungsten Rings, The New White Metal

>> Friday, March 9, 2012

If you are looking to get married or looking to get a new wedding band you have probably heard of tungsten rings. You probably have seen someone wearing a tungsten carbide ring as well. These rings are considered the new white metal. Platinum or silver are the most widely worn white metals but now tungsten has hit the market with a lot of force. Some might say that they actually white because they have a dark even black tent to them depending on the lighting. In the right lighting they are white and even sometimes look like a mirror.

When you are looking at wedding bands you want to decide on the metal before you decide on the style or design of the ring. If you find a design you absolutely love and then you find out you can’t get it in the type of metal you like you will be very disappointed. So find the metal you like first. If you are allergic to nickel you will want to avoid white gold or tungsten rings. Both of those types of rings contain at least a little nickel. If you have an allergy and get one you will find that it will cause skin irritation and make it so you can’t wear you ring.
