Job satisfaction is more important than salary

Most of the people are said to prefer salary over the job satisfaction, however I’m not inside this group. I claim that it is more important to enjoy yourself while you are working.

Firstly, I don’t quite agree that the job satisfaction is totally more important than salary. If you work a lot of hours and at the end of the month the boss pays you a misery, you won’t be happy, even though you enjoy the job. You also have to think about your family, your house and your lifestyle, but I believe that working on something you don’t like, you are bored with and you don’t feel quite good working, I would leave it.

Secondly, the main that satisfies me even if I couldn’t reach at the end of the month, is because I will be working on this kind of job, maybe the rest of my life, every day and for eight hours a day. If I wouldn’t enjoy this job, the rest of the day I would be sad, tired, annoyed, so, I believe the job influences you more than you think.

To sum up, I would like to say I wouldn’t work for one or two euros, but don’t you think that life is for enjoying it and not to spend most of the hours working, discussing or being upset.

Pregnancy advice 'scaremongering'

Pregnancy is a huge, lige-changing period in a woman’s life and there is no shortage of advice about what is best for your unborn child. But Linda Geddes, the author of Bumpology, argues this can sometimes be misleading and scaremongering.

Expectant parents are bombarded with advice about what they should and shouldn’t be doing. Pregnant women mustn’t eat too much as it may raise the baby’s risk of obesity or diabetes, but they mustn’t diet as that could have a similar effect. Neither should they exercise for fear of triggering a miscarriage, or get too stressed out because that’s bad for the baby too. You might start to think that staying at home would be the sensible thing to do, only this too is ridden with potential dangers for your unborn child: from ice-cream, to pet shampoo, to hair dye.

“When I fell pregnant three years ago, I felt paralyzed and somewhat patronized by all the conflicting advice out there. So began a quest to investigate the truth behind the old wives’ tales, alarming newspapers headlines and government guidelines, and to probe deeper into the inner world of the developing child. So Bumpology was born.”

In my opinion, Linda Geddes has done a really good job and has been really worried about her child’s life and his healthy. I admire her to worry so much for her baby, and also to advice in news that other mothers don’t have to do everything that other people say, they only have to look for the secure advices and enjoy their life with their baby.

I’ve never been pregnant, because I’m young, but I can’t imagine what a mother can worry about their son. It has to be amazing and also, when he/she borns, the preoccupations start at the same moment.

How to tackle unsafe drinking

Drinking too much is bad for you. But too many people underestimate what is a safe amount of alcohol.

Dr Nick Sheron, a liver expert at the Univeristy of Southampton, explains why we need a blood test to alert people to the harm they could be doing to their body.

We have a serious problem with liver disease in the UK.

Around a quarter of the UK population are drinking too much, but may not realize it, and GPs have an important role to play here. Liver disease develops silently. There are no signs or symptoms – the liver has no pain fibers, until disease is very far advanced. By the time the patient presents to hospital the liver is often very scarred. Even if the patient stops drinking entirely at this point, it may be too late and many people die of liver complications over the next year or so.

Now they have a simple blood test, which we call the Southampton Traffic Light test. The result comes in three colors: red, green and amber.

Is incredible how the % has increased in these lasts years, on people drinking alcohol. I agree that doctors have an important paper for the UK to inform all the population, but I also believe that people don't listen or don't pay attention on the important things, like your life! They may think that they wouldn't be ill. In any case, I am not anyone to discuss it because everyone has their own problems, and I also want to say that the new simple blood test is really good to differentiate the level of the disease.

Prenuptial arrangements are a good idea

Why should the couples do a prenup? Is it a matter of not relying on your partner?

On the one hand, doing a prenup has to be a good idea for the people who have a lot of money and a lot of propiate campsides. Then, when the couple wants to marry, they distributate theirs properties to not to discuss it when they might divorce the following years. Everybody has to be secure deciding and choosing their own things, because nowadays, exists a lot of ways to destroy or steal the other person. So, in this sense it's a good idea to pass those papers firstly to enter to a secure marriage.

But on the other hand, the boyfriend or the girlfriend can feel quite insecure seeing while his pair isn't relying on him/her. This person might think about their projects in a future together or maybe think about their children. I believe that couples have to speak to each other and planning their lifes while they are living theirs. Maybe, not to plan all at first, however doing it while you are growing up together. 

In my opinion, I think that people who do a prenup don't rely on their couple and don't marry being in love.

Dear Mr Rajoy, 

I am doing a project at my High School, IES Castelló d'Empúries, about Human Rights. 

Regarding the 7th article of Human Rights, it states that the law has to be equal to anyone, even if someone has a lot of money, or is famous, or is the President of any country, has to be under the law that all the current people do.

In my opinion, sometimes this is not complied with. For example, a news story came from a woman who stole €200 of a credit card that was to buy necessities for their children, almost has been thrown in prison; however, there have been many theft of a lot of money by some politicians, but nothing has happened.

As a result, I think everyone should be judged as they deserve, and because there is a law, then enforce it. 

I would like to thank you in advance for listening me.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours sincerely,

Eva Martínez Benito.

CHALLENGE: Can we make Humans rights more relevant in the world today?

Previously, without internet, television, social networking or any of that, people were quite lost in what was happening in the world. They didn’t wise if there was a war here, if there was a violation there, … everyone cared about himself and move on. But with the implantation of new technologies, people are much more informed. Sincerely, I believe that this can help people to communicate and to do groups for helping others. However, I think that having so much information to know what happens at all times, we don’t pay attention and it doesn’t give us any importance that it should have. The reason is because we have listened it a lot, so it’s not new for us.
