Ask The Expert:

Some of the topics you can comment on this week are;

1. Our new temp keeps to himself and doesn't talk much and a lot of people think he's a snob, and they want someone different to be brought in. He's a great worker and seems like a decent guy so I'm reluctant to let him go. How can I get him to try to open up more AND get my regular team members to be a little more tolerant?

2. I learned that I'm pregnant and got my dream job on the same day. Now I'm afraid that if I tell my new boss about my pregnancy he'll take back the job offer. When's the best time to let him know?

About WOE Enterprise

A few years ago my life hit rock bottom. I looked into the bible and I saw the word woe. I also wanted to see how the dictionary defined woe. Woe meant trials or tribulations. In life a woe to you might be a job loss and to another it might be a broken relationship.

One day I was thinking how I could reinvent my life so I wrote down the word woe on a piece of paper. As the document spoke to me it revealed that woe now meant WOE as in Word of Encouragement. From there I received this slogan.

“Before you leave work or go to sleep tonight, give someone a WOE, a Word Of Encouragement.”
