Mess up: make a mistake

Mess = mistake, problem, disorder, dirty, crazy, bad

.

Reputation may be good with newer companies.

Brand recognition, however, increases with time.

It takes more time to trust, believe, in newer things; it takes more risk; they watch out for scandals, stories.

Sometimes, when they try to withdraw from banks, the money is not there.

.

They go to lawyers, attorneys, and they seek legal help. They go to court. They fight them in the courts.

.

Court = courtroom = room with judges, lawyers, people, cases, fights.

.

Vietnamese man gets a visa for America.

.

He has ten dollars in his bank. He has a one month visa. He stays in America for 2 months.

.

Before he went to America, he bought a 1-month tourist visa from a travel agency.

if they go abroad lonely , they will need minimum balance in account to demonstrey with embassy in Vietnam for getting visa

.

Demonstrate

.

No space between words and commas, periods.

Do not write ,like that.

Write the comma, then the space.

.

Did you say something about American's government requiring something?

.

Vietnamese government likes foreigners but do not like Vietnamese nationals?

.

If you treat one nicer than the other, that is a preference and it is favoritism.

.

Vietnamese government requires more from a Vietnamese than an American.

It is like a hot pot when cooking and melting everything together.

Melting Pot.

.

Policy

.

England required Vietnamese to have minimum bank balance of $30K USD around 2010, and yet lets Arabs and Muslims in with no banks and no money.

They need to be nicer to them and meaner to some of the other people.

.

Please wait five minute for miss Hien.

.

Palm reader

Fortune teller

.

Should I?

Should I believe in it?

Should I believe in that, in this, in it, in these, in those things, etc?

.

I believe that they can sometimes tell you about patterns.

.

Patterns are repeated things, events, actions, activities, words, art, or anything.

.

Fortune tellers might tell us where we might go if we continue going where we are going.

.

Fortune tellers can predict future actions on the pattern of your habits.

.

For example, if you drink beer everyday, I can say you will drink beer tomorrow.

.

Normally, fortune tellers can tell you what might happen and what can happen in the future, but you can always change the future before those things happen, I think, normally.

.

Last year, I told people that Trump will be the President.

.

I like Trump for all the things he does everyday.

.

Obama gave over $150 Billion USD to Iran. This is one example. Obama Care has expensive insurance.

.

Obama said he cares for the world. You need to understand what globalism is.

.

Globalism is like communism and socialism and things found in Vietnam. Do you want the world to be like Vietnam, or do you want Vietnam to be more like the world?

.

They talk about making everything fair.

.

Imagine that you have a good grade or score in school. You have 4.0 GPA. It is like a perfect score of like 100%.

.

Say your friend has a 2.0 GPA and you have a 4.0 GPA.

Your friend is sad.

.

Will you go to the principle and ask them to take one point from you and give it to your friend? THen you and your friend will both have a 3.0 GPA.

.

Grade Point Average.

.

You: 4

Friend: 2

Why not you both have a 3?

.

Would you want to have a 3 instead of a 4?

.

People don't want to give up their grade for their friends.

.

It is not fair to do that.

.

But that is what communism is like.

.

I work 10 hours.

You work 3 hours.

We get the same money.

That is communism.

Com-mun-ism

.

Vietnam has some capitalism on the outside.

.

Capitalism: market: buy, sell, trade, work; wages

.

Ca-pi-tal-ism

.

Wages: money earned pay hour; salary (monthly or yearly)

Vietnamese know very little about Obama & Hillary

.

Your friend may smile around you and then talk bad about you behind your back.

Talking is one thing but actions are even worse when they're bad actions.

.

I like my family, friends, country, and the world.

.

You cannot help the world if you hurt different countries.

.

You hurt other countries via war, for example.

.

You hurt countries by getting people to give up freedoms, rights, security, safety, protection.

.

A country should not be controlled by other countries or groups or other things, I think, normally, mostly.

.

The European Union (E.U.) tries to control the countries in it (the union).

.

If England does not want to do something, maybe they have to because the EU says they have to.

.

The group decides on behalf of the other countries.

.

If there is a group of 10 countries. 9 countries may want this one thing but the other country may not.

.

The people of each country should have as many freedoms as possible.

.

Differences come from culture, religion, education, location (geography).

.

The people with the real power are people you are not allowed to talk bad about.

.

In Europe, when people talk bad about Islam and Muslims, they are taken to jail (prison). Muslims don't go to jail.

.

Terrorists (ISIS) follow Islam.

.

Muslims have a holy book like the Bible, called the Quran.

.

What are you drinking?

What do you drink?

.

Allah = god of Muslims.

.

Buddha = god of Buddhists.

.

You can have 4 wives there. One can do the cooking. One can do the cleaning. One can do the shopping. One can write books for me. One can be the mother. I will sit and worry all day because that is what men do while drinking beer.

.

The newspapers said Trump cannot win.

.

Why do you trust the newspapers?

.
The newspapers might have said that Vietnam has no dead fish.

.

Who owns the media?

.

Why don't we all accuse newspapers and media?

.

We should always keep media accountable.

.

Many times, media is caught lying.

.

But the media will always say they are not lying.

.

Many people don't take the time to research it and they only know what the media said.

.

When some people said there are dead fish. The government said, no. There is no dead fish. Then they throw them to jail because the people are liars. There are no dead fish in Vietnam.

.

Obama is Communism.

Hillary is Communism.

.

That is why Vietnam loves Obama, because they promote Obama.

.

NASA

Group for going to space.

.

NASA:

National Aeronautics & Space Association.

.

Moon. Space. Satellites. Stars. Mars. Study.

.

Satellite = flying computer that circles the earth.

.

Health Care

.

Trump does not have his own care yet.

.

America has Obama Care but not Trump Care.

.

Yesterday, they were trying to pass Ryan Care.

It is not called Trump Care because it is not a good Care.

.

But the Ryan Care failed.

.

Paul Ryan is the speaker of the congress house.

.

Congress is a hosue where they make laws (pass bills which becomes laws).

.

2017, March 20, Monday, USA President Trump went to Kentucky State and spoke to over 20,000 people.

.

Trump is the most popular president in the world.

.

Why were there demonstrators or protesters or terrorsits?

.

First, you should ask why were they there?

.

If you do not know why they were there, then it is very hard to understand what was happening.

.

Many protesters are paid money to protest.

.

Some protesters were paid about 20.000.000 VND for each day.

Some people had a lot of money that they would give to them.

.

Some people do not want to compete in capitalism.

.

Some people have monopolies.

.

Monopolies are companies with no competitions.

.

Microsoft almost has no competition.

.

Bad education decreases freedom.

.

The more you know, the more you can do.

.

Why are you here if you don't like communism or other problems?

Because I like people.

.

I want to help make it better. Things can always get better.

.

Obama is trying to make the world have less freedoms.

.

Obama went to Africa and told them that they cannot have more technologies, cars, air conditioning, etc...

.

Obama works for other people.

.

You may not know who Obama works for.

.

You can read books that Obama wrote where Obama talked about what he wants to do.

.

Obama wrote some of it in around 1995 and you can understand Obama from what he wrote about long ago.

.

In Vietnam, you can find Obama Books at bookstore and you can read them in Vietnamese and you can know who Obama is and what he does and tries to do.

.

It is important to know the heroes of Obama.

The heroes of Obama are people that Obama copies (imitate).

.

Audacity Of Hope

Audacity: ability

.

Once you realize he is not on your side, then everything he does makes perfect sense.

.

This is not a personal thing.

.

I love people.

I love black people.

I love basketball.

.

I love the way Obama talks.

I love the way Obama dresses.

I love yellow people too.

I love the way Obama plays basketball.

I love it when Obama gave a medal to Michael Jordan.

.

I am very sad when I hear people say what you say.

.

I understand it because I hear people say it and write it.

.

Things are taken out of context. People do not know the whole story. They do not watch all of it or read all of it or see all of it.

Obama and the media are both working for the empire.

.

The empire are the globalists. They go by other names too.

.

You can study body behavior, psychology, anthropology.

.

You should study facial and body language and expressions.

.

We say one thing while our bodies say a different thing.

.

Some people are actors.

.

Beautiful people become actors.

Ugly people become politicians.

.

Politicians are actors.

.

Why is Michelle Obama not allowed to practice law now?

.

This makes me angry.

.

In America, schools are teaching children about the many genders we have.

.

I think there are only two genders, male and female.

.

Teachers are teaching there are 31 genders or more.

.

Why? Because you may feel like a different kind of gender that is mixed.

.

Maybe you are a man in a woman's body.

.

Gays are men who like men.

Different genders means like something else.

.

Gay men know they are men.

But some men may say they are women.

Some men will say they are women and then go into the women's bathroom or toilet room.

.

In America, they are fighting these things.

.

And they say they want rights for these mixed people of like half men and half women people.

.

They try to get boys to shower with girls in public showers at schools .

.
Parents are angry.

.

Parents will say to the boys, you are boys. Stay away from my girls.

.

Michael Jackson was married to the daughter of Elvis Presley.

.

I think there a man who won a weight lifting contest with women. He changed into a woman and competed with women and won.

.

He got a sex change, maybe from Thailand.

.

Was Michael Jackson gay? I do not know, but maybe a little.

.

Israel is in the Middle East. Muslims call that place Palestine.

.

But Muslims or Arabs would say it is their land. But Jews say it is theirs.

Jews = Israelites (Israel)

.

Wiretap = spy = secretly look at you = stalker but illegally

.

They have been spying on Trump since 2004

.

They spy indirectly with the help of other countries like England who spies on America.

.

The government of America can get information from England about Americans.

.

Then they can say we did not spy on you. But they got the information because other countries spied on the Americans.

.

When they spy, you may lose freedoms.

You need to know what is happening in other places in the world and not just what they say is happening.

Because they don't tell you everything and you don't get to know the whole story.

.

Competition

.

Some may terminate people immediately.

.

I think that is good as long as it is reasonable enough.

.

As long as the staff knows what is expected of them, then it can be fair enough.

.

Is life fair?

Some say life is not fair.

I say life is more than fair, because life is very great and full of luck or some really remarkable things.

.

My mom was working as a dishwasher and a cook and a waitress at a restaurant, but the owner was always changing her mind about what was required for work.

.

Sometimes, the boss would say to my mom that the dishes were too dirty and then she would they're too clean. She was always changing. My mom worked there when I was about 13 years old. My mom did not know what was expected of her.

.

In this situation, it might be fair for the boss to immediately terminate a staff because it does not seem to be fair enough because the staff are not able to meet the requirements when the requirements are always changing and are always undefined or not given.

.

In this kind of situation, it is very subjective and not objective.

Subjective means like a bunch of opinions that depends on like emotions and other things.

.

Subjectivity (n.) is an idea that there is no right or wrong and that everything in the world is nothing and everything but doesn't matter and who cares and do whatever you feel like doing.

.

A lot of people believe in this.

.

Subjectivity is a way of thinking about everything.

.

Subjectivity is the opposite of objectivity.

Objectivity believes in black and white (no gray), right and wrong.

Subjectivity believes in gray (no black or white), and in opinions but not right or wrong.

.

Delegate. Delegation = get others to help do the work in a team = share the load of work.

.

Delegation = divide and give out work to other people instead of doing the work yourself

.

Leaders delegate better than managers

.

Leaders focus more on the people on leading them, delegating them.

.

Managers focus more on management and less on the people. A good boss will not only be a manager but also a leader.

.

A manager only cares about getting the job done on time, on the deadlines, even if that hurts the staff. The leader will try to help the relationships of their staff. Leaders care more about their staff than they care about work and money and projects. Managers care more about the work than they do about the staff.

.

Leaders are at the top and they balance the work with the workers.

.

Managers are more focused on the work instead of the workers. Leaders will try to focus on the workers first before getting too deep into the work.

Leaders can try to have relationships with staff.

.

Some bosses are more like managers while other bosses are more like leaders.

.

All bosses will have both in them but will tend to be more like managers most of the time.

.

Where do you see yourself in five years? Ten years?

I see myself as a big boss in ten years.

.

What kind of leadership style might you have?

I will try to be flexible like a good leader and less like an angry manager.

.

I will try to sympathize and empathize with my staff and I will have a lot of different ways and tools and things I can use and have to manage and lead staff.

.

Why do you want to leave your current company?

I get support but my potential and opportunities is too limited. Their promises were not kept or fulfilled.

.

They did not keep their promises.

.

I was not able to work to my full potential.

I was not able to reach my full 100% capacity, ability, potential.

I wan not able to utilize all of my skills, talents, skills.

I was not allowed to be creative enough to do what I want or need to do.

.

Sometimes, I don't notice because I don't always know how old people are especially when teenagers may sometimes look like young adults and young adults can also look like kids too.

.

Some people are shy in the public.

Some people do not display public displays of affection.

Some people will not have physical contact (PC) with the opposite gender (sex).

.

PC means touching, kissing, hugging, and everything else too.

.

PC can be dangerous.

.

PC can be dangerous if you do it and it can also be dangerous if you don't do it too.

.

PC is good and bad.

.

PC can be bad and is bad when it is bad.

PC can be a bad thing and it can also be bad in some ways when it is done in a bad way or for bad reasons or with bad people or at bad times or it can lead towards path of other bad things and stuff.

.

Bad is bad because bad is bad.

Good is good because good is good. .

.

I had a weak back about a week back.

.

I had a weak (bad) back (body) about a week (7 days) back (ago).

Puns are jokes with like double meanings.

.

Jokes = joke = joking = comedy = humor

.

Trap = hands tied

Trap = captured

Trap = stuck, lost, down

.

Don't spell the word "PART" backwards. It is a "TRAP."

This is a pun joke because it has two meanings. One meaning is about being trapped or captured. The second is that trap and part is the same if flipped backwards.

.

Foreigners love puns.

.

If you don't know puns, how can you talk to them?

.

How can you understand foreigners if you don't understand what they say? And they will talk in riddle (code).

.

Riddles are things that are hard to understand.

.

A riddle can be a sentence that an old man might say to you.

A riddle is a proverb or a short story or a life lesson.

.

It is raining cats and dogs.

It is raining hard.

This is not a pun.

.

This is a pun:

It is raining cats and dogs; oh, and it is also raining very hard too outside.

.

First, it is raining cats and dogs.

Second, it is raining too.

.

First, cats and dogs are falling out of the sky.

Second, water is falling from the sky too.

.

A pun will surprise you.

Puns are fun.

.

You wanted a trial.

.

When does the trial end?

Dobroski said hiring managers can always tell when a candidate has spent time prepping for an interview.

"Try practicing answers to these questions out loud in front of a mirror, or ask a friend or family member to listen to your answers and give feedback," he said.

"Practice is key," added Dana Leavy-Detrick, founder and chief creative scribe at Brooklyn Resume Studio. "The more comfortable you become speaking about yourself in a marketing context, the easier it will be to answer any type of interview question that comes your way."

Leavy-Detrick noted that you should prepare a few anecdotal stories that speak to your strengths, such as how you turned around a difficult situation, achieved a success or stepped up in any way.
