Why do some people get paid more for some jobs, and less for others?

This is a question that some people know, and others don't. Jobs are something that everyone needs. Even if you dont want a job, you'll need a way to get money eventually. For simpler jobs like cashier, bus driver and janitor, the pay is less. But with other jobs like police officer, fire fighter and construcion worker, jobs that are more stressful or dangerous, you get paid more. Sometimes if your very good at something, even the best in the world, you may not make a lot of money if it is a low paying job. Even if your very nice or mean, the pay will probably not change.

When a waiter spills a drink on you, thats a bit annoying but it happens. But with jobs like police officer, you cant make mistakes, and people expect you to be good at it all the time. As a waiter, of course your going to spill a drink or give someone the wrong order atleast once. But, if you have a slip up as a police officer, it may have a much, much worse outcome. Thats why those kind of jobs pay more than jobs like waiters and cashiers. 

Well, that leaves one more question. What job is the best job? Well, there is no answer. Do what you want! If you want to be a game developer, be one. If you want to be an astronaut, chase your dreams and be one! What job do you want, or are currently chasing to be. Leave a comment with feedback, suggestions or your dream job thank you for reading, goodbye.

The 3 types of fingerprints

 There are 3 types of fingerprints a person can have. Some are more common than others, the rarest being:

Arch

These fingerprints are the rarest, appearing only in 5% of the population. Looking almost like rising and falling hills, some also look like pointed tents. These are the least common fingerprints.

Loops

Loops are the most common fingerprint, appearing in 60 - 65% of the population. They are ridges that enter on one side of the finger, curving around and leaving on the other side.

Whorls

Whorls appear in 30 - 35% of the population. They are usually rounded in shape and have at least one full circle.

Sleep & exercise for teens.

 1. Healthy food for teenagers

Food is a very important part of a healthy diet. Its just as important as the exercise itself, because if you exercise then just sit down to eat junk food, you'll make all the weight back! Here is a slideshow showing a possible health diet for the week.

2. Sleep - how much do you need?

Sleep is also very important in a healthy life. Not only does the amount of sleep you get that effects how you feel, its also the quality. Eg, a nice pillow, mattress, comfortable blankets etc. The recommended amount of sleep is 8 - 10 hours a night. Thoughts in your mind also effect how you sleep. If you have nice, simple thoughts you will most likely get a good sleep. While, if you have bad, stressful thoughts, it may not be so nice. Remember, a good exercise requires a good nights rest!

3. Exercise itself.

Exercise can happen in many different ways. For example, running. Its simple but nice. Going on a small run everyday can be nice for your body. Another example is the gym. Going to the gym has to be one of the most popular places to workout. Even if its your very fist time working out, there's something for everyone of any skill set. You can lift weights, run on treadmills and so much more. If you want to learn a bit more than I can tell you, watch this short video about exercise > Link. Or if you want a proper exercise video, watch this one here > Link

Remember, a good exercise life takes good dedication!

Writing task

 This week's writing task was that we had to write a story containing 5 certain words, as well as being over 100 words. The words were 'Evacuate, Red, Urgent, Industry & Afraid'. Here is the story.

The 15 foot monster.

As the alarms blared, red lights filled the halls.

The speaker’s were screaming the word “EVACUATE” over and over.

Many of the workers were afraid, others were making an effort to get to the exit.

As I turn a corner, I see it. A huge, 15 foot tall bear was running down

the hall towards me, chasing a handful of workers that knew their time had come.

I turned the other way and started sprinting towards the second exit.I wasn’t a quarter way down the hall before I hear the screams and yells of the

workers behind me.

My phone buzzes and out of the speaker I hear, “Urgent. Urgent.”

It was quiet, considering I could hear it over the roars and growls.

I got out the door just in time for the roof to collapse behind me.

I had escaped.

I never thought I would be so happy to see the Industry infected city in front of

my eyes.
