Effect of Job Stress

The effects of job stress can be different from one job to another, depending on the job the stress can be very high or even very low. I believe this can effect a persons life outside the work place and defently have an effect on how a person can act at and outside of work. Like for me i work at a place where customers yell at me and argue with me when they can't get their way. This puts alot of stress on me and sometimes makes me want to do things that I origanlly wouldn't do; however, I do things that keep me calm and keep the stress from getting to me after work.

The movie we had watch on the Friday, was all mainly about the studies on ADD and other mental deseases; it was also about how we treat them in society and what is done to help cure them. In the movie is showed that some people pretended to be sick when they really weren't, and they did this to see what kind of mental help is done on a person. The movie really shows that we treat people with mental disabilities alot different than other people and not only do we treat them differently but also isolate them from society.

Video on Conformity and Leadership

The video on conformity and leadership was interesting to think about, how one person can make a bunch of people do things that they normally wouldn't do. The video also showed how a group working together can accomplish a whole lot and actually keep the group alive and well. Its interesting how we can be persuaded by someone with more power and how they act is how we will act.

Power of persuasion

Persuasion is something that all of us do everyday of our lives, and even though we don't even know it we are constantly persuading people to do things. If we aren't persuading than others are persuading us to do things; persuasion can be a very power full thing, in a good and bad way. The way persuasion is a good thing is because we could persuade a business deal that could earn you thousands of dollars; however, the down side of things is that people can use persuasion to get people to do bad things. Which could get that person in to a lot of trouble; persuasion is powerful and can be used in a good or bad way.
