Thank God it's not Friday

Article Abstract:

Many people experience a significant loss of confidence when a short-term contract comes to an end. They often expect a short-term contract to lead to more permanent employment, and feel rejected and useless when this does not happen. Recent graduates who accept a short-term contract can improve their chances of gaining more permanent employment by ensuring that they establish positive links with the most influential people in the company. It is vital to have a proactive attitude. If the short-term contract does come to an end, then care should be taken to ensure you get a written reference.

Thank heavens for little boys

Article Abstract:

Some observers have expressed the opinion that teenager Peter Kerry, who recently ran away to Malaysia using his father's credit cards, should not be made into hero and that his actions should not be made to appear glamorous. However, it cannot be denied that he has shown qualities which are attractive to many adults as well as young people. Many people sometimes feel the need to leave all their responsibilities behind, but when they are adults they feel unable to do so.
