You Can't Quit Your Colleagues, but You Can Learn to Cope with Them

For many professionals, working with a difficult colleague isn't just annoying. It's detrimental to their career. In fact, nearly 60 percent of employees say the annoying work habits of a co-worker have resulted in at least a somewhat significant loss in productivity, according to a survey by TrueCareers, a leading job board. The survey also found that 40 percent of employees say that a co-worker's habits have become so unbearable that they are currently looking for new employment.

Unfortunately, people who leave one employer for another aren't likely to escape difficult co-workers forever. Instead, they encounter new colleagues who are just as annoying, frustrating and mentally draining, according to Robert Orndorff and Dulin Clark, co-authors of the recently-released book, The PITA Principle: How to Work with and Avoid Becoming a Pain in the Ass....

Airbag, Air Bag Deployment Black Box Crash Data Retrieval Information for GM, Pontiac, Cadillac, Buick, Oldsmobile, Chevrolet, Saturn, and Hummer Vehicles

For many years, airplane crash investigators have had the benefit of retrieving data from the flight-data recorder. This information has proven invaluable for helping to determine what happened in the critical time before a crash. In 1997, the National Transport Safety Board (NTSB) made the recommendation that vehicle manufacturers and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration work together to gather information on vehicle crashes using onboard collision sensing and recording devices. As a result, General Motors expanded the data downloaded to permanent memory in the air bag sensing and diagnostic module at deployment or in a near deployment collision. Since 1973, when GM first introduced air bag-equipped cars, some crash data has been recorded. As explained in the owner's manuals of GM vehicles, the amount of recorded data has expanded with time and technology. The capability to record pre-crash data was included with some 1999 GM vehicles following the NTSB's recommendation. The Vetronix CDR System helps further the NTSB's recommendation by creating a product that downloads the data stored in recordable airbag modules.... (Continue reading)
