Answer to Question 1

Self-assertive. A nonassertive person fails to make their feelings and thoughts known to others; although not all aggressive communication is destructive, the aggressive person often bypasses the recognition that others need to express their feelings; the self-assertive person feels free to express themselves but are aware of the feeling and needs of others.

Answer to Question 2

A job is considered long-term income with some work-oriented values, but a career is considered an important activity that provides much satisfaction. A career not only involves work-oriented values, but also achievement-oriented and advancement-oriented values as well. In a job, the person works to live, whereas in a career, the person may live to work.
