Career Doubts?
A career is a rapid motion. A course of action. Professional conduct in life. Progress through life. What is a careerist? One, who rushes widely and makes his advancement his or her aim in life. In times of Covid-19, you may not think about your career. Sure. But somehow life goes on, and career doubts rise again.
When career doubts won't go away? What if you're not happy with your job? Is it possible that you're in the wrong entirely?
My parents always (!) wanted me to become a banker. So far so good. Why not? Maybe I would have been more (or very happy) in my job. Or not?
The pressure "to be" someone starts in life early indeed. Not only my parents, but also peers, and teachers have begun to exert influence. Yes, I even didn't know where my inclinations lie.
Being a doctor or a lawyer? Yes, I was interested in law and medicine during that time.
"The way that people pick careers is incredibly primitive," said Nicholas Lore, founder of the Rockport Institute, a career coaching firm, and author of "The Pathfinder". So, it's no wonder, he said, that so many people are dissatisfied with their jobs. Me too. Yes, count me in. Mass-communication has been my subject, as well as publishing house management. So far so good.
I always thought about a true calling for me. Sure, people whose careers aren't the right fit often feel like impostors, Professor Robert I. Sutton, an organizational psychologist at Stanford University in Palo Alto, said. Very, very well said, Sir.
How about you, my dear reader? Are you also placing too high your value on the external rewards of the job, like money, prestige, and power? Sure, these things are indeed important. Hold on! The work you do and the skills your opportunity requires and the value of your work are more vital to fulfillment. Paperwork or not... Do you think you find a better career fit? Go ahead - but don't expect that this is your life's career!
I waited for my "better calling" experiencing many better and wonderful moments in life. I also experienced that what I did had been very much compatible with me, as what my parents thought.
Personal note: In times of soaring Covid-19 cases in the Philippines, there is only one thing: stay safe and healthy everyone.

MORE LIQUOR BAN VIOLATORS ARRESTED
Posted on July 2, 2020 by administrator
The city government of Davao has shown that it is serious in the implementation of the liquor ban as the Davao City Police Office (DCPO) and Vices Regulation Unit (VRU) continue to apprehend more violators.From March to June, the two offices apprehended a total of 196 individuals for selling and drinking alcoholic beverages.
DCPO head Police Colonel Kirby John Kraft said that concerned citizens, who reported on violators, also played a role in the arrests.“We received tips from various Davawenyos that led to the arrest of these individuals. We actually encourage more Dabawenyos to inform us if they see people violating the liquor ban,” Kraft said.
VRU head Dr. Ashley Lopez said that they have been monitoring online sellers of alcoholic beverages, who have proliferated when the liquor ban due to the pandemic was implemented on April 6.
“Naa lang gihapon gahig ulo labi na mga alcoholics who desperately find ways to drink to satisfy their cravings,” Lopez said.Lopez and Kraft issued warning anew against other possible violators that they too will be arrested. CIO
DAVAO CITY TO IMPLEMENT LOCKDOWNS, BARANGAY ECQ DURING MGCQ
Posted on July 2, 2020 by administrator
Davao City will still implement a barangay Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) or house, street, purok, and compound lockdowns during the Modified General Community Quarantine (MGCQ) to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
“This is to control the transmission especially in identified very high risk and high-risk areas,” Mayor Inday Sara Duterte said in a live interview over the Davao City Disaster Radio on Wednesday.If lockdowns and ECQ happen in specific areas, Mayor Sara said, offices and establishment owners must be considerate to their employees that will be affected by these control measures.
“There will be employees nga dili gyud makasulod not because naa silay sakit but because nasulod sila sa isa ka lockdown. So maghangyo ta mga offices and establishment employers to take into consideration kaning mga ing-ani nga control measures (There will be employees that cannot report to work not because they are sick but because they were locked down. So we are appealing to offices and establishment employers to take into consideration these control measures),” she said.
Lockdowns are implemented in an area with an alarming number of positive Covid-19 cases. When an area is in lockdown, residents are required to 14-day home quarantine. Affected residents will be tested on the 14th day and those who are positive will be transferred to an isolation facility. The individuals who are locked down are those that have exposure to people positive of Covid-19 or have been included in the contact tracing. The city government provides ration and psychosocial support for residents under lockdown. CIO
Davao de Oro to implement green alternatives, bans single-use plastics
Davao de Oro Province---Vital for a balanced harmony of progress and development is a green and healthy environment free from pollution.
Environmental problems such as plastic plagues, blocked waterways and infertile soil were associated with single-used plastics. Plastic also contributes to poisoning, health problems in humans, wildlife damage and uses millions of dollars for clean-up cost in coastal areas.
It takes about a thousand years for a single plastic to fully decompose, much longer than a life-span of an average human being, obviously non-biodegradable.
With this, setting an example as a good steward, PLGU-Davao de Oro, through the Sangguniang Panlalawigan led by Vice-Governor Maria Carmen Zamora passed the Provincial Ordinance No. 61-2020 “AN ORDINANCE REGULATING THE USE OF SINGLE-USE PLASTIC PRODUCTS, EXPANDED POLYSTERENE, STYROFOAM AND OTHER SIMILAR MATERIALS IN ALL GOVERNMENT OFFICES, AGENCIES AND INSTRUMENTALITIES IN THE PROVINCE OF DAVAO DE ORO AND PROVIDING PENALTIES FOR VIOLATION THEREOF”
The province now prohibits the use of plastics including expanded polystyrene, styrofoam products during meetings, hearings, seminars, and other government activities.
Employees will now practice the green alternatives such as BYOB (Bring Your Own Baonan), BYOT (Bring Your Own Tumbler) and BOB (Bring your Own Eco-bag), reducing the generation of plastic waste in government premises.
Violators for this ordinance will be dealt with accordingly. Employees and Food suppliers/Caterers violating the ordinance will undergo a warning and attendance to Green Alternative Orientation Seminar for the 1st Offense. Subsequent offenses for employees is a fine of Php 300.00
Second offense for Food Suppliers/Caterers will be fined amounting to Php 3,000 and Php 5, 000 for the subsequent offense and subject the same to be blacklisted from conducting business in any government office/agency in the province.
Medical equipment used by our hospitals, laboratory and analysis services and front-liners such as gloves, plastic vials, sample bags, intravenous fluids or IV drips, plastic syringes and the like which follow the protocol and standards under the WHO (World Health Organization) and DOH (Department of Health) were given exemption.
