Я думаю что легче на работе администрировать образованных людей чем всяких дур. Одна уходила раньше на два часа и приходила раньше, хотя я ей этого не говорила. Другая не приходит на работу или шлёт смски в 1:23 ночи, третья достаёт чтоб дали больше дней, четвёртая сама себя снимает с расписания скип реквестом хотя делать это Олько под силу менеджеру. Завтра собрание, обязательно

шуточки 13-03-2017 09:30


Перестать со всеми дружить и перестать всем быть хорошей.

Этот совет дала мне мой личный психолог. Это по поводу работы. Дальше, вот эта самая женщина грозится что она всех порежет, это  у неё шутки такие.

Есть у нас категория шутников. Я понимаю, один раз шутку скажешь, второй, но постоянно. Одна новая шутит постоянно, разыгрывает. И другие начали ей подыгрывать

Когда я пошутила, они меня попытались пристыдить, тоже в шутку.

Шутники блин

Серьёзно, что делать на работе если подчинённые филонят.

Не хотят работать полные часы, уходят раньше на 2 часа.

Я не знаю, что делать?

У одной из них умерла мама и я понимаю, что это очень неприятная ситуация, однако, эта самая подчинённая постоянно в последнее время находит причину, чтобы уйти раньше.

Вчера она ушла раньше на два часа.

И как-то она находит оправдания всему этому.

Я пришла на работу ровно к 9 ти, она уже стояла под дверью.

Я что-то не помню, что мы с ней договаривались чтобы она приходила раньше так как что за продажи до 11 часов?

И потом она мне заявила, что она вообще-то проработала больше часов, чем ей платят.

То есть она типо всю неделю приходила раньше и уходила позже.

Я даже этого не заметила.

То есть она давит на жалость и потом она типо моя такая хорошая подруга и её сын мой друг.

Film adaptations of Anna Karenina has a similarity to Jane Eyre adaptations: Too many.

I'm aware that there are at least 10 versions on this novel so which is the best? I think the most famous and critically acclaimed version out there is the one starring Greta Garbo in 1930's which I've not seen. 

I've watched 1997 film, (filmed on location in Russia), starring Sophie Marceau and Sean Bean. I thought it was really good, the characters had such a great chemistry and it worked really well for a shorter version but I thought perhaps Sophie Marceau looks bit too young for the character.

Then I watched the 2000 British television adaptation of Tolstoy's Anna Karenina, which I thought ok. Agewise Helen McCrory is suitable for the role than Sophie Marceau but it was long but not so good. But I liked Kitty and Karenin. 

Then I learned there will be another version starring Keira Knightley as Anna Karenina!!??? Check it out.

Это цитата сообщения natalyayas Оригинальное сообщение

Предназначение славянской вышивки. Значение цвета.

В славянской культуре вышивка имела большое значение. Она являлась не просто украшением одежды, предметов быта, но и являлась оберегом. Каждый орнамент, цвет, расположение вышивки на одежде имело свое значение.

Как это ни странно. но даже в наш просвещенный век многие используют вышивку как оберег. 

Но не всякая вышивка, где использовались славянские мотивы, может быть оберегом. Случайный набор знаков, цветов может быть не просто бессмысленным, но и принести вред. Это как подключение к Интернету - случайное нажатие кнопок может привести к непредсказуемым последствиям.

В выборе орнамента стоит руководствоваться всего лишь четырьмя правилами: 

- выбрать правильный узор;

- выбрать правильный цвет;

-определить правильное место для вышивки;

-использовать обрядовые заговоры - одним из них является песня. Не зря наши прабабушки пели во время рукоделия.

И еще непременное правило - вышивка должна быть сделана с любовью.

Существует ряд цветов, которые символизируют то или иное настроение на вышивке. Их сочетание и дает настроение, а главное по ним можно определить какую идею и смысл хотел заложить мастер в вышивку.

Обычно используется 6 основных цветов:

1. Черный - символизирует землю. А земля - это кормилица.

2. Красный - этот яркий красивый цвет означает радость, страсть, любовь и жизнелюбие, огонь, кровь, 

3. Белый - обычно используется для вышивания мережек. Белый цвет - цвет непорочности, святости, источник чистоты. Белый цвет раньше очень ценили, поэтому обручальные кольца делали из серебра, они были как обереги.

4. Синий - цвет небосвода и воды. Является символом очищения, душевного спокойствия и избавления о болезней.

5. Зеленый - цвет растений. Является символом весны и молодости.

6. Желтый - является символом ночных светил - месяца и звезд.В то же время считается цветом разлуки. Золотой - солнце.

Goldie and dima near the italian resaurant

The one can see that they talk at raised voices

goldie

You have never wanted to be with me. You were more concerned about your money. That is why your were proceeding with your dead marriage and with your crazy wife who as you knew and everyone else knew—who wanted to divorce you but you did not let her.

dima

What are you talking about? She did not let me. Do you hear yourself?

 

Goldie

All that I want is you. All that I ever wanted. You cannot be with me. When I ask you to come over to my house, you always tell me that you do not have any time.

Dima

When you ask me to come over to your house? Do not forget that it is my house. Do not forget that I rent it for you.

Dima

[dials someone]

Rashan, can you please come over to Goldie’s apartment?

Rashan’s voice in the receiver

Rashan

Why for?

Dima

Just… I think I forgot one of my tablets up there.

 

Rashan

You ask me to spy on her again? Please, Dima..

Dima

Rashan, I feel something is going on behind my back. I need to find out and stop all this madness.

rashan

I do not want to be in between all of this.

Dima

Please. I am so lost. I do not have anyone to ask. You do not want me to ask my own secretary, do you?

Rashan

Why won’t you go and check it out yourself?

Dima

I don’t know. I am afraid.

Rashan

           Afraid of what?

Dima

          The truth. I don’t know.

Rashan

Okay. I will check it out. But if something will be wrong, promise me that you will be calm.

Dima

         I promise you, Rashan. I will just leave her for    good. That is it.

1. Battle of Karbal happened in 17 century. It was a short-term military operation in which a grandson of the Prophet Muhammad was conquered and murdered.



Battle of Karbala, oil on canvas by Abbas Al-Musavi, Qajar period. It is about war between Sunnis and Shias. This painting was painted in 680AD, in present day Iraq.
This painting is exhibited in the Brooklyn Museum.
Battle of Karbala underlines the importance of the sacred figures of Shiism.
The events of Karbala for many people replicate the fight of the good with the wicked, the righteous versus the good. It shows the, and the fight between Imam Husayn (good side) versus Yazid (evil side).
Imam Husayn was a grandson of the Prophet Muhammad. His mission was to protect Islam. Imam Husayn was fighting for the Muslims. Historically, the ruling power of the monarchs: Mu'awiya and his son Yazid was grounded only on the force. They were tyrants who kept their people in tense by a force power.
Imam Husayn was a ruler of Ahlul Bayt and refused to worship Mu'awiya. Historically, long time before Bayt Imam Ali had struggled to defeat Mu'awiya because Mu'awiya repeatedly dishonored the Islamic values.


The next painting is a part of Bayeux Tapestry. The Bayeux Tapestry is an embroidered fabric material nearly 70 meters (230 ft.) long and 50 centimeters (20 in) tall, which portrays the happenings before the Norman conquest of England. It is also connected historically with William, Duke of Normandy and ending with the Battle of Hastings.
The Bayeux tapestry is one of the ultimate accomplishments of the Norman Romanesque style. It is more than 9 centuries old.

Bayeux Tapestry that shows William the Conqueror fighting his own soldiers.
The Battle of Hastings section of the Bayeux Tapestry shows King Harold being hit in the eye by an arrow. For some period the person on the picture was considered to be one of his bodyguards but now historians think it was Harold himself.
2.
I will try to explain that there was a term “An Art of War” in those times. War was considered a noble deed at times as it was aimed to return lands and power that had belonged originally to the Government, Ruler or Monarchy. Embroideries were very common in the times of the ruler William and if we look at the colors and the size of this specific tapestry, we can draw a conclusion that its size and colors says that it was significant in the history of Medieval England.
Citizens of the certain Country went to Wars because they wanted to protect not only their lands or financial stability but also their religion, name or rank.
Battle of Karbala depicts fight as well but you should not be scared or disturbed by this painting. People fight and sometimes people and nations fight because of the religion. People want to go to church and they think that only their religion or confession is more important. For Muslims this painting is very significant, with respect to their culture and history because it historically shows how one religion can be divided into the subdivisions and how people can fight between each other in regards to a noble goal. We cannot be judgmental in this matter but we can be aware of some things that happen in this world. Some people were scared and baffled at those times too. This is one of the reasons they created this piece of Art. They wanted to freeze their feelings and even now we can look at the painting and feel the fear and confusion the artist had felt.

No, it’s not, he hollered. It’s not funny. My life has been crushing down and no one cares. What part here is funny?

None, I agree. Your wife leaves you but it’s not the end of the world.

No, you do not get it. IT is the end of the world for me. The end of my personal world, a disaster. I cannot imagine my life without her.

Well, you have lived without her before, have you?

I have. But it is different. I was different. Now, I am completely lost.

Stop it. We won’t let you to be lost. You have friends.
