THE WHITE ELEPHANT

Centuries ago, in the country of Siam, now known as Thailand, it

was the custom of the rulers that displeased them by giving the

offender a white elephant. Because the animal was considered to

be could not be made to work as other elephants did, but still had

to be fed hundreds of pounds of fruit and cared for in the most

lavish style. The recipient could not give the elephant to anyone

else, as it was the ruler, who would be greatly displeased should

the recipient not receive the gift graciously or care for in a grand

style. This monetary burden could be a major liability to the

recipient and in many cases they became impoverished.

This is the origin of the term “white elephant” as it is used today to

denote an unwanted gift. The way of gift exchange played during

the holiday season is an offshoot of this. In this game, everyone

brings and the gifts are exchanged by drawing numbers and

picking a gift in turn. The second person can choose or steal the

first one. It is all in good fun, and people enjoy giving silly gifts and

“stealing” someone else.

However, I took the initiative to put into practice the activities recommended by “Mypyramidtracker.” The most interesting activity was to carry out various body exercises and then calculate the corresponding energy expenditure from the calculator. I also developed the habit of being nutrition conscious and took control of my eating habits.

The first time I did a food nutrition evaluation, I found that my diet consisted excessive energy-giving foods. Most of my diet consisted of deep fried potato chips, crumbled bread, almonds roasted with honey, chocolate milk, and cornflakes among others. The results from the calculator indicated that I was taking approximately 3210 Cal which was the above my daily recommended intake of 2630 Cal. Particularly, I was taking an excess of proteins, saturated fats, and carbohydrates. However, I was meeting the daily-recommended intake for total fiber, which I was able to maintain at 25. Vitamins and mineral elements requirements varied from one vitamin to another. Whereas the diet was exceeding the required daily intake for vitamins A, C, E, and riboflavin, it was falling short of thiamin, potassium, and zinc.

After reading and understanding about the various health effects of taking less or more of one nutritional requirement, I decided to change my diet. I primarily reduced the amount of carbohydrate foods I was taking in a day and supplemented the same with vegetables and fruits. The changes were hardly noticeable within the first week but I began to record some changes in the third week. It was challenging at first since some of the substitutes were costly and difficult to choose from the food stores. For instance, I would not know what type of fruits or vegetables would help me meet or at least maintain the daily-recommended nutrient intake for some vitamins. Therefore, I had to exercise patience and do a lot of trial and

I will pay for the following essay Galactic Office Furniture: the Role of the HR Managers. The essay is to be 10 pages with three to five sources, with in-text citations and a reference page.

In this context, Sims (2002, 3) found that human resources involve HRM programs aimed at developing HRM strategies for the total organization with an eye toward clarifying an organization’s current and potential problems and developing solutions for them. they are oriented toward action, the individual, the global marketplace, and the future’. In accordance with the above the role of the HRM within a particular organization is significant. however because of the existence of many factors that can influence the effectiveness of the programs suggested by this department, it is necessary that the appropriate measures have been taken in advance in order to avoid any negative outcome during the implementation or the application processes. In Galactic Office Furniture Ltd one of the major problems that need to be resolved by the human resource department is the low productivity of the employees that have led to the reduction of the firm’s financial performance. Because of this issue, it is necessary that a series of plans are implemented in the specific company. However, in this case, the reaction of the employees in the changes proposed would have to be considered carefully by the HR managers. As it is admitted by the firm’s Training and Development Manager ‘isn’t it going to be difficult to persuade people around here that you can be trusted?’ It seems that the environment in the workplace is not really friendly for employees neither for managers.
