A Corporate Prayer

Almighty God
we humbly entrust our company
into your caring and saving hands
We implore your constant guidance
in our daily endeavors.
We need your divine presence
And providential assistance as we
perform our individual functions.

O God, we sincerely ask you in prayer
Bless and protect us so that
no accident may happen,
no harm may befall us,
no misfortune may come.
Deliver us from anything
that will decrease our productivity
and from anyone who will reduce
our efficiency by keeping us
from doing our work well.

O God we sincerely ask you in prayer
to watch over us and give us the grace
to work together I peace and harmony.
Grant that the management
and the rank-and-file may trust
each other and function as one;
that the management may look after
the well being of the workers;
that the employees
may concern themselves
with the company’s future;
that we may all reap a fruitful harvest.

O God we sincerely ask you in prayer
to bless us and intercede for us.
Help us to meet our deadlines
as well as the clients demand
for our products.
Help us to settle all conflicts,
solve all problems,
cope with crises
and enjoy the lasting benefits
of our efforts.

Look with kindness at
those who work with us;
those who supply our raw materials;
those who patronize our products.

You know our hearts’ desires,
but you also know what is best for us
We humbly ask you to help us
achieve our corporate goals
To you who have given us all,
we offer the fruits of our labor.

O God, help us set our priorities.
Keep us from focusing solely
on material rewards.
Remind us of our commitment
to serve humankind

All this we ask of you
through Jesus Christ,
your obedient Son,
our loving Lord.

Amen.


I remember this prayer always in times of my struggles, pains, heartaches, bitterness, happy and everytime i need encouragements from our creator...


LEARNING CHIST


Teach me, my Lord, to be sweet and gentle in all the events of life-

in dissappointment

in the thoughtlessness of others,

in the insincerity of those I trusted,

in the unfaithfulness of those on whom I relied.


Let me put myself aside,

to think of the happiness of others,

to hide my little pains and heartaches,

so that I may be the only one to suffer from them.


Teach me to be profit by the suffering that comes across my path.

Let me so use it that it may mellow me,

not harden nor embitter me;

that it may make me patient not irritable

that it may make me broad in my forgiveness,

not narrow, haughty and overbearing.


May no one be less good for having come within my influence. No one less pure, less true, less kind, less noble for having been a fellow traveler in our journey toward ETERNAL LIFE. As i go my rounds from one dsitraction to another, let me whisper from time to time a word of love to Thee. May my life be lived in the supernatural, full of power for good, and strong in its purpose of sanctity.

Six Relationship-Ending Dating Behaviors

"No matter how much love exists in your relationship, it cannot survive without trust".

Finding the one to share a relationship with is a blessing. Once you've bonded with this special someone, keep in mind that respecting your partner's privacy and retaining trust are essential to maintaining a healthy relationship. If you cross certain behavioral boundaries that violate your partner's trust, you may cause irreparable damage to your relationship.
As a dating coach, I'm not usually a fan of hard and fast "rules" for relationships. I've, nevertheless, identified widespread behaviors which will likely end any relationship. So to help you ensure that you don't breach the "trust" boundary in your relationship, here are six detrimental dating behaviors that should always be avoided:

1. Prying into private info. If you suspect your partner of betrayal, does that give you the right to start reading your partner's email? To listen to his/her voicemail messages? To hack into his/her
online profile? The answer to all of these is "no!"
You should never dig through your partner's personal emails or listen to your partner's voicemail messages.
You should never dig through your partner's personal emails or listen to your partner's voicemail messages. By doing this, you violate not only your partner's trust, but also the trust your partner has with anyone who left those voice messages and emails.

2. Lying for the greater good. Lying is never good in a relationship, although we've probably all been guilty of doing it. Lying to your partner in an effort to avoid hurting him/her or to avoid confrontation may seem like a wise decision. Regrettably, you will end up digging a deeper hole for yourself when that lie is exposed, which is almost always inevitable. When caught in this situation, you end up hurting your partner anyway, and whatever you were trying to protect your partner from -- by lying to them -- will be even worse because of your deception. I recommend honestly communicating with your partner from the get-go.

3. Pulling a "James Bond." You should never snoop in your partner's private things (drawers, wallet, filing cabinet, or private records -- such as bank or credit card statements). Furthermore, nothing justifies snooping. No matter what you have a "hunch" about, snooping through your partner's things should never be pursued to confirm or deny your hunch. Your partner's possessions and personal records should be kept private unless he/she gives you permission to look at them. Spying on your partner is one of the most blatant violations of your partner's trust and will achieve nothing except having your partner never trust you to be alone near his/her things ever again.

4. Designating yourself "Magnum P.I." Another ill-advised way some people try to verify suspected bad behavior by their partner is to take on the role of private investigator by attempting to "catch their partner in the act" of doing something. Whether this takes the form of searching for your partner's car by driving by his/her house, work, or gym or it takes the form of following your partner in your car, this is something you should never do. Even if you have a convincing hunch that your partner is hiding something from you, stalking is the wrong way to address it. If your partner finds out you've been "tailing him/her" in your car, he/she will no longer trust you.

5. Sending others to do your dirty work. Don't ever send a friend or anyone else to gather information for you about your partner or to spy on your partner for you. This means, don't send a friend to go hang out where you know or suspect your partner will be. Don't have your friend try to eavesdrop on your partner's conversations in places he/she goes. Don't ask your friends to use their cell phone to snap covert pictures of your partner. All of these favors from friends not only violate your partner's trust, but also reveal your total lack of trust in your partner.

6. Checking up constantly. One of the biggest ways to reveal that you don't trust your partner is to manifest that distrust with paranoid and obsessive behavior. While calling your partner regularly is quite normal, calling him/her incessantly to "check up" comes off as obsessive and will drive your partner away. If, for example, your partner is unable to answer his/her phone for a few hours and by the time he/she accesses it he/she discovers you've called 50 times, you not only come off as being paranoid and obsessive, but you clearly communicate to your partner that you distrust him/her. Also, when you panic every time 10 minutes go by without a reply from your partner by a phone call or an email, it sends the exact same message.
So even if you have some type of "intuition" that your partner is hiding something from you, it's better to engage in a confrontation with him/her openly rather than searching for answers secretly. Even if your partner doesn't respond to your attempts to talk about it the first, second, or third time, chances are that you'll eventually discuss it -- and the outcome of voicing your suspicions honestly with your partner will always be better than if your partner discovers you engaged in any of the behaviors I've talked about.
No matter how much love exists in your relationship, it cannot survive without trust.
No matter how much love exists in your relationship, it cannot survive without trust. Violating someone's trust will never take a relationship to a better place. In fact, by doing so, you may very well be single-handedly orchestrating the end of what could have been a fantastic relationship. Also, keep in mind that I didn't mention the most obvious relationship-ending behavior to avoid:
cheating.

Friendship that counts.....

I thought this was the end of our friendship...coz were facing small conflict like misunderstanding..., shes good to me and of corz I to her, she smiles..., laughs at my jokes..., try to understand me.., ahmmmmm...gives empathy.

I said.. nothing coz it was my habit to smile also with a person who wears a smile..heheheh.. I let her sit in a chair and ok...go on ...do what you wanna do... Shes typing her resume and I was impressed by her sample of it..its a curriculum vitae..nice and impressive style of format.. clean and awesome., so tidy. After she done she said to me ..ahhmm im finished.. "Ahh ..ok lets check it " I said.. its ok now and it was nice format haaa...very good..impressive. After that i didnt save it again in the PC's document coz i thought she saves it already there...it was my fault and after that i check..if her document is ok now in my server....but i found.., the one page only saves there.. I go back to her place and i check again her work but in unpleasant situation i cant open her document. She says what happen O God..i took an hour to finished tha and it turn into nothing..

13 Things Your Waiter Won't Tell You

1. Avoid eating out on holidays and Saturday nights. The volume of customers guarantees that most kitchens will be pushed beyond their ability to produce a high-quality meal.

2. There are almost never any sick days in the restaurant business. A busboy with a child to support isn't going to stay home and miss out on $100 because he's got strep throat.

3. When customers make personal attacks, adulterating food or drink is a convenient way for servers to exact covert vengeance. Waiters can and do spit in people's food.

4. Never say "I'm friends with the owner." Restaurant owners don't have friends. This marks you as a clueless poseur the moment you walk in the door.

5. Treat others as you want to be treated.

6. Don't snap your fingers to get attention.

7. Don't order meals that aren't on the menu. You're forcing the chef to cook something he doesn't make on a regular basis, and it won’t be as good.

8. Splitting entrées is okay, but don't ask for water, lemon, and sugar so you can make your own lemonade.

9. If you find a waiter you like, always ask to be seated in his or her section. Tell all your friends so they'll start asking for that server as well. The server will be grateful and take good care of you.

10. If you can't afford to leave a tip, you can't afford to eat in the restaurant.

11. Always examine the check. Sometimes large parties are unaware that a gratuity has been added to the bill, so they tip on top of it. Waiters "facilitate" this error.

12. If you want to hang out, that's fine. But increase the tip to make up for money the server would have made if he or she had had another seating at that table.

13. Never, ever come in 15 minutes before closing time. While you're chitchatting over salads, your entrées will be languishing under the heat lamp while the dishwasher is spraying industrial-strength, carcinogenic cleaning solvents in their immediate vicinity.
