Evidence - Giving - Advice
These people are facing changes in their life. Read their situations below:
I don’t really feel comfortable with this new idea of telecommuting. I wish I
could come to the office every day I have done for the past 5 years.
My name is Amanda. I am a hairdresser. I work in
a beauty shop in the north of the city. I am a single
mother and have two beautiful sons. Mike is nine
and Steve is two. While I work, my mother takes
care of my sons. She has always supported me.
But now my mom is really sick. The doctor
recommended her moving to a quieter place. So,
she is moving in with my brother who lives in a
small town. If my mother moves, I will probably
have to quit my job as I don’t have anybody to
take care of my kids. I wouldn’t leave them with a
stranger, especially the little one. Fuente: SENA

Sincerely, Closing
Dear Gary,
My name is Andres. I am a member of the Colombian Army. I read your story and I want to
give you some advice about your situation. It is good to be prepared for changes and more
when technology advances in society. In my personal opinion, I believe that what we do in
our institution should be done, what we did as a result of the pandemic that has helped us.
First, in the office there should be a responsible person if there is any requirement that can
help you, for example with the file that you cannot find, the other option is that you carry all
your files on a hard drive and be very confidential with the information. Second, if you need
your boss and he does not appear online, you need him very urgently, you can call him on
his personal cell phone, if he does not answer you should call whoever is available in his
office to help him communicate with him and explain your situation.
As a conclusion, I believe you can work in your house with the technology tools If you go the
extra mile you will be able to be the employee of the month virtual.
Sincerely
Andrés Castro
