Late to work, time wasters, lazy, or simply not showing up at all. As a manager or an employer, these are the issues facing us. Why? In many areas of the United States, the education system is so poorly funded that one teacher can have up to 40 children in the classroom. How many times have you seen someone walking with traffic instead of against it, as is proper. Even college graduates often lack the common sense skills to accomplish what
