I am born in this great city of Jacksonville, Florida and have lived here my entire life. I don’t plan on mixing it up and moving any where. I work two jobs at Jacksonville international airport with American Airlines and Prospect cabin services. With American I am a bag smasher while roasting in the sun marshaling in aircrafts. For Prospect I clean and search aircrafts that tend to stay over night or a turn during the day. If I were to get chopped at one profession I would be burnt and sautéed at both. I don’t really have any hobbies just because I work 70-80 hours a week and also have school so I am hoping that this hobby will be up to measure  for the standards.  ]]> 2018-07-05 00:44:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/269420263 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/269508078 With this photo as I read it, it makes me feel much better about all the stress from trying to manage life in general. Having two jobs and school in the bachelors program I get very overwhelmed. Sometimes I need to breathe and just realize it’s going to be ok.]]> 2018-07-05 21:45:26 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/269508078 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/269770221 This says to me that if you panic Work will always eat you alive. But if you and your team group together you can achieve anything. ]]> 2018-07-09 19:39:01 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/269770221 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/269770536  Has appeared in this photo a woman stands in front of the ladder. This speaks a lot about the chapter that were covering right now with the information of gender roles and the executive world that women can do just as much as men can and there should be no glass ceiling for the diverse race, gender, or religious believes .]]> 2018-07-09 19:44:29 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/269770536 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/270250113 Being in a leadership position isn’t always to me having the fear of not being a leader.

Stress helps you organize 
Stress makes you the person you are
But,
Stress is not okay
Stress makes life fail 
Stress ruins life]]> 2018-07-31 16:43:54 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/271572168 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/272739036 The hardest thing for a company to continue is motivation if yours doesn’t continue. You can’t motivate if you aren’t!

They asked me to go and train them. ]]> 2018-08-18 12:30:10 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273853591 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273853685 I am now training employees in Orlando how to service aircraft. I can see now why they choose me. I have a lot of  patients which I am a very detailed trainer. ]]> 2018-08-18 12:32:25 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273853685 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273862216  With the company I work for right now comes disadvantages to hiring young folk. The older generation is used to manual labor and hard work, the younger folk are used to technology and having it easier. With this being said it becomes a problem with my company right now hiring old folk with young folk . The younger  doesn’t want to work as much while the old folk are working harder creates a feud between employees.  The picture shown shows that trash has not been taken out and who is to blame is the younger folk .]]> 2018-08-18 15:37:10 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273862216 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273862376  At the job I have now instead of a SWOT we do a CAR. A CAR stands for a corrective action report and which if something has failed we need to see how we can change it. So just like the strengths,  the weaknesses,  The opportunities, and threats. For example if certain aircraft are not serviced we need to find out what the problem was how we can fix it and what we are going to do about it. ]]> 2018-08-18 15:41:15 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273862376 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273862482 The organizing process with the five main steps I have use these in my day to day job. Only had one of the jobs though. As though I am a contract aircraft cleaner  I am asked to do other cleaning jobs by the contractor themselves. For example instead of having aircraft cleaning I do facility cleaning where I have to reflect on the plans, establish major tasks, divide those tasks, allocate the resources, and then evaluate the results of organizing strategies. ]]> 2018-08-18 15:43:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273862482 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273862793  With one of the topics we are going over this week is clarifying job activities of manager. This kind of hits a personal level with the job I’m at now as where I was told directly what I will be doing and what is being expected from me. With the new individuals joining the company I am finding out that my coworker is lying to them and giving them false information and false hope honestly I don’t know what to do. ]]> 2018-08-18 15:51:59 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273862793 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273862932  After reading about Zappos doesn’t sell shoes it “ delivers wow”  The challenge case at the beginning of chapter 16 I realize that the company I work for wants to be there for the customer.  But the company I work for doesn’t care about customers at all they don’t feel valued trying to motivate an individual to care enough is as hard as it is to think about it. ]]> 2018-08-18 15:56:06 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273862932 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863109  With this new week starting it’s a bit of fresh air with the chatter were learning through requires us to create a survey.  With the survey I’m giving it to my employees to see what they think I don’t expect them to do it but to have them think about it it might possibly change the way management has held at this company. ]]> 2018-08-18 16:00:27 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863109 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863148 The surveyWas only taken by one individual and it shows that the management and employees are giving a problem trying to find out a solution to this problem is more complicated than I thought. Should I buy them dinner one night should I have a heart-to-heart with some of them should I just become the disciplined asshole I don’t know.]]> 2018-08-18 16:01:26 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863148 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863240  My job title is in the lead/supervisor , My manager is the station manager which doesn’t really care about the employees at all I want to make the company look good here. I’m trying to lead and motivate my night crew this is where the problem sets in. They want more money, but it’s hard to ask for more money when their services are not up to par but  what do I do?]]> 2018-08-18 16:03:52 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863240 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863407  What I did was I used fear to motivate them. They were offered a choice either quit now or be terminated by not finding certain items. A background of my job as I search aircraft for the safety of others also cleaning the aircraft. I brought TSA to come scare them for them to lose their jobs and also to be find several thousands of dollars if they do not find a test item.]]> 2018-08-18 16:08:54 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863407 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863457  I am a lead which requires me to leave them to the perfect being that they can be at this job. With that being said I make it very simple and very easy to learn by hands-on and also being shown. Maybe this is why I don’t see my family as much. I don’t know if I can take anymore.]]> 2018-08-18 16:10:44 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863457 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863541 Dinner is a huge motivation. Besides money people work for food so what I did was I went to Taco Bell and I bought them a giant taco box and offered it to them that night the work ethic and proved there are no fights there are no problems. ]]> 2018-08-18 16:13:02 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863541 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863656 Chris It’s probably one of the worst managers I’ve ever had to work for. I am sick today so I’m staying home I’m not working can’t work, but he refuses to come in and cover me. As the station manager your job is either to find replacements for me or cover yourself if you can’t find a replacement. I find out that he’s at home doing nothing. ]]> 2018-08-18 16:16:00 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863656 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863743  Leadership that is a huge word in for my leader ship to my people I break my back for them. But want to comes to my station manager what does he have for me when I come back the day after I’m sick a ride up to where I didn’t call out for hours before my shift. Four hours before my shift would be 1 o’clock in the morning no one would answer but I guess I didn’t try. ]]> 2018-08-18 16:18:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863743 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863844  As this is a new week it is also the last week of school the last week of this journal. To be honest I might just keep this journal and keep going with it as long as I can. After reading about enterprise Rent-A-Car I see that other companies show grass is always greener on the other side. ]]> 2018-08-18 16:20:18 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863844 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863897  With the six pages of enterprise, enterprise has shown me that customer service and the human resources management cares just to much about their people as I do about mine. Maybe I’m in the wrong field maybe I’m in the wrong business my depression is way too low I need to go to a job that makes me feel happy again. ]]> 2018-08-18 16:21:21 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273863897 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273864002 One of the topics this week it’s called I S, is information system  where the applications established within an organization provide managers with the information that will  assist them and decision making. Now if only I had a decision-maker for my company. I’m tired of always making the decisions I’m tired of the actions for my decisions always backfiring in my face. ]]> 2018-08-18 16:23:52 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273864002 kevin_duncan_mcbride https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273864088  This will be my last journal entry for this class. Using a lot of what I learned in this class has made me realize that the company I work for is not the company for me. I just need to get away from this company doesn’t make me happy and I feel like I’m being dragged down. For example when I went to Orlando to help train I didn’t get credit for that my station manager did he said that he went down there to train when really I have all the receipts I finally figured out what management is a whole bunch of snakes. ]]> 2018-08-18 16:25:52 UTC https://padlet.com/kevin_duncan_mcbride/MAN_2021McBr1d3/wish/273864088
