For every obstacle you encounter along the way, Morgenstern diagnoses the source of the problem (is it you or them?), and with insight and warmth, she provides simple grab-and-go strategies. These are small changes anyone can make to improve performance and efficiency at work. At its core, Making Work Work is about your relationship to your job. With the reliable, methodical process taught in this book, you will: • feel less trapped and more in charge • be able to make a bad situation better • search for a job that's a better fit for who you are. This is a provocative and life-changing book that will help you boost your clarity, confidence, and performance in any economic climate. With Morgenstern's guidance you can find a way to make work work.

Download or read book The Willard Suitcases written by and published by . This book was released on 2016-10-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Willard Asylum for the Insane was opened in 1869 for the purpose of treating individuals in need of long-term care. Some of these patients came from other hospitals, some came from families no longer able to care for them, many came from county poorhouses, and a few came in chains. The asylum, later known as Willard State Hospital, and finally as Willard Psychiatric Center, was in rural upstate New York on the shores of Seneca Lake. Over time, Willard grew to hold several thousand patients. Throughout the twentieth century, the institution changed from an almost self- sufficient, isolated institution to a modern psychiatric hospital. In 1995 New York State closed it for budgetary reasons.The asylum distinguished itself by having a particularly close relationship to nearby communities. Generations of families worked at Willard, and when it closed, many of its recently laid off employees volunteered with the decommissioning. It was during this time that Beverly Courtwright opened a locked attic door and "rediscovered" more than four hundred suitcases belonging to former patients. Thanks to her, and the involvement of Craig Williams from the New York State Museum, the cases were preserved, and a few were eventually displayed in an exhibit at the museum in 2004. The cases are now in the permanent collection of the museum and have been catalogued and preserved. Jon Crispin has photographed at Willard regularly over the past three decades, and in March of 2011 was granted access to the suitcases and began a through documentation of the collection. His main concern throughout this project is to maintain a respect for the integrity of the resident's lives, and he is determined to tell their stories through his photographs.

It’s also genuinely funny.” —Vox With bright, quirky, and colorful line drawings, Jacobson brings to life actual and imagined items found in the pockets and purses, bags and glove compartments of real and fantastical people—whether it’s the contents of Oprah’s favorite purse, Amelia Earhart’s pencil case, or Bernie Madoff’s suitcase. How many self-tanning lotions are in Donald Trump’s weekender? What’s inside Martha Stewart’s hand-knit fanny pack? What kind of protein bars does Michelle Obama hide in her tiny clutch at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner?

Download or read book Shaping Written Knowledge written by Charles Bazerman and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The forms taken by scientific writing help to determine the very nature of science itself. In this closely reasoned study, Charles Bazerman views the changing forms of scientific writing as solutions to rhetorical problems faced by scientists arguing for their findings. Examining such works as the early Philosophical Transactions and Newton's optical writings as well as Physical Review, Bazerman views the changing forms of scientific writing as solutions to rhetorical problems faced by scientists. The rhetoric of science is, Bazerman demonstrates, an embedded part of scientific activity that interacts with other parts of scientific activity, including social structure and empirical experience. This book presents a comprehensive historical account of the rise and development of the genre, and views these forms in relation to empirical experience.
