Lets follow a code:

Username - Series no - Date

For example:

Pooja - Parajumble 1 - 20/06/2008

Also, if you guys are participating on other such threads (VA, FJI,etc) try to get them to go along with some system.

Cheers and happy posting.

So here we finalize our method for this thread

Hey Pguys

From Monday i.e 23/06/2008 we follow the below mention method.

If you see on Monday morning any post(i.e question) please do not post any question before the previous user had posted the answer

i.e If Person A had posted the question then Person B should wait till Person A post the answer.

Please Change the Name of the Heading to the code specified below i.e in this post intsead of Re:Parajumble change it to Pooja - Parajumble 1 - 20/06/2008- pg: 43 for posting question

Please follow below mention code to post the question and use that code to answer the question and it would be really helpful if you can.


Lets follow a code: suggested by Egno

Username - Series no - Date- Page no

For example:

Pooja - Parajumble 1 - 20/06/2008- pg: 43

Hope everyone follow this.

Note: If you come accross some new user who does not know about this please imform them.

Helping each other is same as helping thyself.

So pugys hope you agree with this.

Answers for Pooja-Parajumble-20/06/2008 -pg:63 - 20-06-2008, 04:49 PM

1.

A)If something in the schedule has to slip, if something isn’t going to get done, make sure it’s not part of the 20 percent.
B)Of the things you do during your day, only 20 percent really matters.
C)The value of the Pareto principal for a manager is that it reminds you to focus on the 20 percent that matters.
D)Identify and focus on those things
E)It can multiply the profitability of corporation and the effectiveness of any organization or individual.
F)When the fire drills of the day begin to sap you time, reminds yourself of the 20 percent you need to focus on.
G)The 80-20 principle can and should be used by very intelligent person in their daily life.

1 CBDAFGE- the description of principle is coming before principle i.e C is before G

2.CDBAFGE – Same reason as one

3. GECBDFA
G) The 80-20 principle can and should be used by very intelligent… is followed by E as in “It can multiply the profitability” where it is for 80-20 principal. Followed by C which explain why 80-20 principle helps…. B also elaborate G,C so once in C you know this 20% things D ask you to focus on that and then in F it specify when to use all this method and A conclude whole thing. Hope I am clear tried my best to explain.

4. GCEBDFA- closer to 3 but but in E it is used for 80-20 principle not for 20% matter

5. BDFAGEF- B is inappropriate sentence to start
Answer is 3 is correct

Pguys who got question 1 right
Shanky_2k8,


2.
A) Driven by the desire to control workers, bosses attack trade unionism using a system called Human resource management.
B) Thus managers control the workforce-if workers are prevented from organizing and bargaining collectively, the bosses’ is made even easier
C) In this way, workers are forced to compete with each other at home and abroad.
D)Instead the problems they cause are reflected in lower labour standards as we are forced to compare with each other, affecting professional and skilled as well as unskilled workers.
E)Free trade, globalization and unfettered capitalism have proved incapable of providing often repeated promises of prosperity.
F)human resource management works on global level-stories abound of workers intimidated into accepting poor wages and conditions by bosses threatening to move production abroad
G) This system exploits every opportunity to isolate workers and force us into competition

1.AFEDCGB- if you check the flow it does not match we need to search a general sentence while a is specifically talking of human resource management.

2.EDAGFCB-
E give an general statement of the para followed by D as the incapability’s to fulfils promises are affected to labour standard…which is followed by A which is to explain that to over come this what bosses follow then G this in G is HRM in A which is again explained in F CB conclude the para.

3.AFGEDCB-same as one. (follow does not match)

4.EDAFCGB-near to 2 but again after A if F come This in G is misses

5.AGFCBED—same as one(follow does not match)

Answer is 2 is correct

People who got second right
Catastrophe1, romy4allcse, grewal.ashwani, millind

Correct me in explanation if I am wrong… I tried my best…

I feel that practicing only two questions in the entire day is too small a task for we puys. So, if someone is having more pj's, he/she can post them as Question no. 3 onwards (Q.1 and Q.2 for today are already posted above).
So, active puys..what are your views about this suggestion?

I think discussing 4-5 questions (on per day basis) posted by 2-3 users can be possible without making the thread messy..may be we can include this idea in the proposed set of rules. Suggestions are welcome. Thank you.
