Harder to keep job than to find one
By Betty Betz....
Nice eye! You're really in a flat apin because you landed your first Job and all by yourself too! No doubt you're pretty well pleased and with reason to be so! After all, it's a real rugged deal to walk into a
place cold, with no experi ence whatsoever, and come out with the sure promise of a weekly pay choque.
Think it over and you'll realise that after all it's the best thing which could happen, because you obviously can't learn or improve if you're working at something for which you're Chalk it up to experience, go out something which smiling, and suits you better, and be happy that you didn't waste any more time at a job that would pro-

Some young people think that once they're hired their worries are over, so they sit back, relax, perform the minimum amount of work to get by, and make a mad dash for the door at 5 p.m.

-Neat-and--mannerly--
You yourself know what's ex- pected of you in your particular job. Neatness, good manners and promptness are basic require- ments everywhere.
Remember that time la money to your employer, and he doesn't like you to have coffee klatches, powder-room gab sessions, or personal phone calls on his time.
When you undertake a job, you should have a sense of responsi- bility about finishing each task no matter how long it takes. And you won't cramp your style any if you offer to help anyone else who may be stuck late with a job.
These Ilttle things make you a valued member of the team, and no matter how charming is your *Goodnight," it can't replaca sin- core effort.
Don't be borrower
Don't be a borrower, and this means anything from money to lipstick. I guess spongers go in this class, too. These are the persons who always lot some. one else pick up the soda or Luncheon bill. Budget your salary to take care of lunches and carfares until each pay day, otherwise there's not much sense in working,
Perhaps you think you have a minor role in the business and it in't as important for-you--1
1-to-be on deck as it is for the president of the company. Nonsense! you weren't needed, you wouldn't have been hired, and if you're a "no show" too frequently, the company itself may doelds that you aren't so important after all, and fire you!
Even in the smoothest-run olen things sometimes get bun- gled up, but try not to let your temperature rise to a boiling point. Worse yet, running to your fellow-workers to blab your prob Tem-will just cause more trouble. Keep calm, button up your troubles and everything will work out sooner or later. When it dose, you'll be glad that you didn't blow your top, for that getz vou any place.
