Mrs. Rose

We are currently on our 5th bi-annual business function which is congratulatory by itself. I have a few concerns on the way we have approached things. As the lead of this party committee i firmly believe we should not make our employees pay a “firm fee” just so we can accommodate these events. They already have to buy a ticket just to attend. We should look at this another way. I feel we should do 1 of 2 things. We should make the functions free to attend or cease the “firm fee”. Collecting an amount of money depending on how long the individual worked for us just to supply these events would be fine if they also did not have to pay for the ticket as well. It would be for the greater good and probably increase participation. We have a very lucrative business as it seems and could spare some money for the accommodation’s. Employees paying twice a month just for extra funds for events seems just a tad bit to much at times. I collect the money regularly as scheduled and nobody complains to me just yet. Please get back as soon as you can so we can discuss further details.

Dear Second Shift,

The expectation that you, as a group, have developed that all work areas must be completely clean at shift change, has long been something with which I have found grievance. The purpose of having a second shift is to continue the work progress accomplished by the first shift. Therefore, it is counter-intuitive to expect the first shift to stop working early to clean if it is not required due to the nature of the work being done. Having to clean workstations and throw away a small amount of trash usually requires the first shift to stop work a half an hour or more before shift change. I would be reasonable to expect the first shift to clean up any big messes before entering shift change, but to complain about the smallest amount of debris left behind has reached an extremely petty level. Furthermore, gathering up the apparently offensive garbage and leaving a note labeled “first shift” is not an effective solution, for as you should know, there is no guarantee that a person will be assigned to the same work area from one day to the next. Actions such as these only serve to create further hostility between first and second shift. There is no expectation from first shift that second shift set up the work area for the next day of work, so why should the work area be cleaned as if it will no longer be in use if that is not the case? Spending time cleaning trivial messes takes valuable time away from completing work related tasks.

Assignment requirements:

Your FINAL research proposal will consist of the following sections: title page, abstract, table of contents, introduction, literature review, hypothesis/problem statement, research design/methodology, definitions, references and appendix (if applicable).

This proposal will include all of the sections in your first proposal and it will include the additional research design section. It is expected that you will have incorporated the instructor feedback from your week 4 proposal and continue to build upon your draft. The exact length of the paper will depend on the design selected in light of the demands of the research question; for example, survey research designs should include a copy of the proposed survey, and experimental designs should detail methods for random selection and assignment. You must demonstrate a goodness-of-fit between design and question, as well as rigor, variously defined. The demands of the research design will become clearer as the course progresses.

About the Research Design Section: Your research design will be the “step by step” directions that would enable a researcher to carry out and execute your research should you be unable to conduct the study yourself. Think of this as directions from how to get to point A to point B. This detail is necessary as it demonstrates that you understand how to best do your research.

The paper will be based on a 100-point scale. This is to be of high quality, free of spelling and grammatical errors, and of original work. Plagiarism will be dealt with harshly.

Attached is the draft. Which is fairly close to meeting the requirements of the assignment.
