Answer to Question 1

Especially for lower level supervisory jobs, employees did not consider that the pay was worth the work. Under the promote-from-within policy, the probability that any supervisor would be promoted to the next level up is significantly higher. This means that they have an incentive not only to do their job competently but to make themselves noticed for promotion to the next better job. They are working as much for the pay in their next job as they are for the pay in their current job.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
