5 Tips To Know Before Starting a New Job

-
With a new job comes a great deal of uncertainty. You'll meet new people, work in a new environment, and take on new responsibilities. 

To help you succeed, we've compiled a list of pointers to help you get through your initial milestones.

To begin, don't put too much pressure on yourself to accomplish everything right the first time. The idea is to become acquainted with your new workplace and determine your place within it.

1. Ask questions and make research

You can easily catch up by asking your peers for new information. However, in your first week, you'll want to figure out when the best moment is to ask inquiries.
If you're unsure about your team's quarterly goals, you may usually wait to discuss them with your boss in the coming weeks.

2. Pay Attention and Learn
It's critical to keep building new relationships and allowing others to get to know you. You may learn a lot about the firm and group culture just by being around your new team and paying attention to how everyone works and collaborates.

3. Acquaint Yourself With New People

Invite a new colleague to lunch and try to make friends after you've made some introductions and gotten a sense of who you'll be working with. It may be the person next to you or another newcomer who arrived at the same time as you. 

As you get to know your new workplace, building a trusting relationship will help you feel more relaxed and you can feel at home.

4. Know Your Place of Work

Find the most important places at work such as restaurants, coffee centers, stairwells and elevators, viewing center, and any other amenities this workplace has to offer. If you haven't been given a tour, ask a coworker to give you one.

5. Don't Get Stuck
You may also want to experiment with your commute during the first week, finding the best times to leave home and trying out different routes or modes of transportation. Early identification and establishment of routines will provide you with piece of mind. Google maps and building strong relationships can help you know alternative routes.

5. Stay In Your Lane

Many employees make themselves look bad by getting involved in work concerns that aren't their responsibility. Workplaces can be a complex web of 'frenemies,' cliques, and gossip, all of which the clever and sensible new hire will steer clear of. Unless you're a supervisor, you're entirely responsible for your own work.

If someone is doing something unethical, creating a dangerous work environment due to harassment or bullying, doing something unsafe, or negatively harming your capacity to execute your job, this rule does not apply. These instances necessitate further action on your part, such as informing your supervisor or HR of your concerns.

Fat women are still beautiful: but beware of obesity

Obesity is a disease that has been a worrying issue in the world today, more and more ladies particularly in the Western world today are conscious of the stigma that is attached to being overweight. Any perceived or actual increase in size is often seen as an anathema which is as a source of social disapproval. While some are naturally slim, others are plump as encoded in their genes. Social acceptance or disapproval of body structure emanates from the culture of the society and passed on from generation to generation. African men (not all) are particularly wary of slim women, whom they label as unfed, sick, bony and are symbolically compared to the letter 1, stick or a tiny broom. In sexual terms they tag them as not 'handy', shortchanged and deprived of the vital body structures to get them aroused. They are favourably inclined to fat women, they believe these women are the endowed. To be a plump woman means beauty to the African man. To him, she is handy, and fleshy to per

Child marriage is real and its consequences stare us in the face. its effects on the social well-being of the child, psychological and health cannot be over-emphasized. Where illiteracy and poverty abound, the effects become all consuming. My Sociological analysis is critical of religious dogma attached to some certain belief system and I promise to tackle the phenomenon without bias. I understand the emotional appeal which religion carries, I also understand the functions and its roles in bringing about stability and cohesion, psychological and moral function as well as its role in reconstructing social identity. I'm aware however, that religion has also been the bane of progress in many societies across the world stimulating conflict and resulting in loss of lives and properties. Adherents of religious belief attribute their actions as emanating from a divine authority and their behaviours are the manifestation of their moral duty to the divine. Sociologically speaking however

As women age, their bodies undergo various changes that can impact their sexual desire. Men who are in relationships with women, especially those who are approaching or have reached menopause, should understand these changes to keep the spark alive in their relationships. Menopause is a natural biological process that marks the end of a woman's reproductive years. It occurs when a woman's ovaries stop producing eggs, and her menstrual cycle stops. Menopause typically occurs between the ages of 45 and 55. However, the symptoms of menopause can begin years before the actual menopause, during a phase called perimenopause. Perimenopause is a transitional period that can last anywhere between two to ten years. During this period, women may experience a wide range of symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, and vaginal dryness. These symptoms can affect a woman's sexual desire and may result in a decreased libido. The decrease in estrogen levels durin
