City Drainage System

Rapid development of city and sub urban, requires better drainage system, this is to prevent flooding during rainy season, and decrease or even eliminate disease cause by bacteria from garbage and dump.

Based on its location of position, we could define city drainage system into two, which are surface drainage and sub surface drainage. As we known, surface drainage is some kind of drainage that appears on the surface, while sub surface, is under the surface. Commonly in big cities, they’re using sub surface drainage considering on location, and safety for pedestrian.

Worker resistance

Working people are hardly prepared to face the present financial crisis, writes Dan La Botz. But they are now resisting. Their resistance to the assaults by capital is on the rise globally as corporations are using the crisis as a cover for laying off workers and restructuring labor markets through plant relocation and wage cuts. Labor which are mostly working in automotive and real estate industry are inside this resistance

Dan, who teaches history and Latin American studies at Miami University in Ohio, writes: “The working class does not have independent organizations with which it can fight for itself and for society at large”. Labor unions in most countries have long been subordinated to capital and government, and have become thoroughly bureaucratic and unresponsive to workers’ needs. In some places company and gangster unions dominate the scene, while in other countries the so-called unions are really state institutions created to control workers (“The Global Crisis and the World Labor Movement”,

Employee Development

Today, management within many maintenance organizations view their workforce as “resources” that provide the hands necessary to perform a function or to complete a task. In most instances, the use of these workers as resources has been well planned in order to obtain the maximum results, while little consideration has been given to the needs of the whole person. This perception of workers has only increased the division between management and staff (salary and hourly) personnel. It also tends to place less thought or consideration on the motivation of the workers.

Development of workers must be considered and emphasized from the moment of initial employment. Attention must be placed on those areas that will prepare and motivate the worker to excel. This may include a better application of the skills and talents possessed by the individual or the assignment of additional responsibilities based on the individual’s technical skills. Assigning tasks of lesser capabilities and little, if any, responsibility will soon lead to poor quality of workmanship and job dissatisfaction.

Youth Worker’s Development

I find that youth workers go through three phases of development. These phases are described below. Try and determine which phase you’re in.

Self Focused
In the first phase of youth ministry many youth workers are concerned with being liked. We want the students to see us as cool and someone who can relate to them. This thinking leads us to do things to get students attention, things that we should not do. This thinking doesn’t come from us; it comes from parents, pastors, and church leaders. How many times have you heard a church leader say, “the students really like him”, or “the students just don’t connect with her”? At their core most pastors just want students to like the youth worker. It’s sad but oh so true. If you are in this phase don’t worry. I was in this phase for a couple of years. Realize being like is not the goal, and move towards becoming more of a mentor for students. Most youth workers go through this phase, but the desire to leave this phase is key.
