The Old Man, the Radiator Shop and Integrity
By: Harrison Barnes


Career Mission's Chief Executive Officer, A. Harrison Barnes discussed how opportunity used the wrong way can destroy everything.

According to Harrison there can be real danger in opportunity if it gets associated with greed. What could otherwise be a very productive and excellent business can in a very short time get destroyed by the greed of one single person.  When people cheat, in however small a way, the damage adds up.

In our careers too, every action we take with our employer needs to be accounted for, and every small action has consequences.  In his entire career Harrison has seen people cheat their employers in the smallest of ways and what ends up happening is that this cheating adds up, and eventually comes back to get the person and the organization. 

The only way to truly grow and progress in business and in life is to be on the side of good and to be a team player all the time.  Just one person can bring down an entire company.  We invest our lives in our careers, therefore the most important thing we can do is act with integrity in our jobs and in everything we do.

Forbes Reports 151,352 Layoffs for January Itself; Employment Authority Proposes Alternative Job Search Approach

Pasadena, CA — According to a compilation by Forbes recently, there were 151,352 layoffs at America’s 500 largest public companies in the month of January. MORE


"There are always vacancies. Organizations are born, organizations expand, workers become restless, quit, change jobs, move, become ill long-term, or become handicapped, retire, or die. There are always jobs out there waiting to be filled. The fact that you can't find those jobs only means the vacancy hasn't been advertised, or you're not using the right method to find it. When the Internet or job-postings, or agencies, or ads, or resumes, don't work, there are other ways of turning up the job you want. So, if you're coming up 'empty,' you need to change the search method you've been using. ... To speed up your search for one of the jobs that are out there, go after many different organizations, instead of just one or two."
