How To Charm Me

As an instructor we have a saying called CASE, I guess that's not really a saying, nor is it a philoshopy necessairly, just something we use. Basically it mean Copy And Steal Everything. If another instructor has a great idea use it. I use this philosphy in teaching alot and have found lots of good resources for free. If you are an instrutor and would like a free copy of a jeapordy or crossword puzzles let me know and I would be glad to share.

I have decided to use this as well with my blog. Many of the good ideas I get come from other blogs, especially Dooce. With the addition of "Labels" in Blogger I've started to use some of the same labels Dooce uses, one of those labels I've CASEd is How to Charm Me.

Today I traveled in a car fo 6 hours with a co-worker who I don't really know. She is a wonderful lady and very interesting to talk to. One of the things that happens when introducing yourself to a new peson (especially over 6 hours) is I told her different things that charm or annoy me. Here are some types of people that charm me:

1. People who take feedback well. I give feedback all day long. I like it when people are receptive to it.

2. People who are not materialistic, especially when it comes to Christmas. It's about who you are rather then what you have or what your title is.

3. People who are not gossipy. This co-workers philosphy is I won't say anything about another person I wouldn't say directly to them. A great philoshpy I think I will adopt.

4. People who travel the world. Traveling expands your character and your outlook on life. It helps you to appriciate what you have.

Till Tommorrow
