Annoying Habits at work

A big part of your job is likely to collaborate effectively with others. That's tough to do if your colleagues and supervisors find you irritating. And it's easier than you might think to rub people the wrong way, even when you're sitting at your desk minding your own business.

Here's some annoying habits at work from 10 Annoying Habits from Co-workers

1. Lunch Noises - You can hear every smack and slurp that their mouth can possibly make as they mastigate at the noon hour. Listening to barn yard buffets would be easier to stomach.
2. Too busy (or NOT) - An urgent deadline, a crises has arisen and amazingly they have WAY too much work to do and they just don't understand it. Teamwork, anyone?
3. Rude Interuptions - You are discussing an issue with a co-worker when another one shows up and without politely waiting or saying excuse me, they just begin talking and taking over the conversation as though one was not already going on.
4. Loud Personal Calls -Middle of work day and your co-worker's cell phone rings LOUDLY and then they begin to LOUDLY talk about what Jane said last night and the outrageous clothes Paul wore. 20 minutes later you want to remind them what the paycheck is for.
5. Claiming Company Property - The copier is not one employee's property for work or personal use. Didn't you learn to SHARE?
6. Gum Popping - Concentrating on the form in front of you and then POP! POP! POP! He just started chewing gum and is popping every two seconds. And the sounds get louder as the hours pass.
7. Eavesdropping - Co-workers listening into any conversation (doesn't have to be personal) and making unsoliciated comments. Mind your own business!
8. Passing the Buck - Don't feel like working today. Go ask Alice.
9. Ignoring Meetings - An important meeting that they are hounding you to set up. You finally got a good time that everyone accepts and they never show up, call, or email. Two days later they are asking for the meeting again.
10. Sitting at Others Desks - Have you walked up to your desk after attending a half-hour meeting and there is your co-worker again sitting at your desk looking over your paperwork. They were just waiting on you to return and decided to pass the time.

7-year-old Boy Raises Huge Sum for Haiti

A seven-year-old British boy has raised more than 60,000 pounds ($107,000) in a day for survivors of the Haiti earthquake by doing a sponsored bike ride. According to ABC News.

It was really so very kind of this little boy that he was able to raised a funds for the victims of the earthquake in Haiti.

Charlie Simpson set out to collect around 500 pounds ($890) for a UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) appeal by cycling eight kilometres around his local park in London, but his efforts inspired hundreds of people to donate online.

He started his fundraising efforts after seeing shocking images of children being pulled alive from the rubble in the Caribbean nation.

"My name is Charlie Simpson, I want to do a Sponsored Bike Ride for Haiti because there was a big earthquake and loads of people have lost their lives. I want to make some money to buy food, water and tents for everyone in Haiti," he wrote on his website.

Haiti Earthquake

Have you heard the news about the earthquake in Haiti? A lot of people were died, people that are still missing, houses that collapsed and people that were trapped on the buildings.

The earthquake that happened in Haiti last January 12, 2010 really was a disaster.

Here's a detailed information about the earthquake.

Source: Wikipedia

The 2010 Haiti earthquake was a catastrophic magnitude 7.0 Mw earthquake centred approximately 25 kilometres (16 mi) from Port-au-Prince, the capital of Haiti, which struck at 16:53:09 local time (21:53:09 UTC) on Tuesday, 12 January 2010. The earthquake occurred at a depth of 13 kilometres (8.1 mi). The United States Geological Survery recorded a series of aftershocks, fourteen of them between magnitudes 5.0 and 5.9. The International Red Cross estimates that there have been as many as three million people affected by the quake, and an estimated 450,000–500,000 deaths.

Most of Port-au-Prince's major landmarks were significantly damaged or destroyed in the earthquake, including the Presidential Palace (though the President survived), the National Assembly building, the Port-au-Prince Cathedral, and the main jail. All hospitals were destroyed or so badly damaged that they have been abandoned. The United Nations reported that headquarters of the United Nations stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH), located in the capital, collapsed and that a large number of UN personnel were unaccounted for. The Mission's Chief, Hedi Annabi, was confirmed dead on 13 January by President Rene Preval.

New Year's Predictions

If you notice, before the first day of 2010, there are a lot of predictions that are going on. Some of the predictions are from some famous fortune teller, some are from other people but do you really believe on it? I mean, are those words from those fortune tellers are true? Do you believe on them? For me, I really don't! Because there's NO ONE who know what will happen in the future aside from GOD.
