First Job Survival Skills Level 1
Unit 1: Surviving the First 90 Days
Experts consider the first 90 days to be the most important period of an employee’s time on the job. This six-module volume will teach your students what the boss is looking for in a new employee and how to avoid common pitfalls.
Unit 1, Module 1: The Foundation: A Positive Work Ethic
Part 1: Giving 100%
Your students will learn to prepare for work by watching two approaches to getting ready. Hector makes detailed plans to ensure he is prepared, while Ron considers work-readiness activities (hygiene, wardrobe selection, etc.) a waste of time. 12 mins
Part 2: Personal Habits That Mean a Lot
Your students will see Hector wake up refreshed at the alarm’s first ring, put on the clothes he set out the night before, eat a good and leisurely breakfast, check to see that he has his wallet and bus pass, and arrive at the bus stop with time to spare. Ron, having fallen asleep in his work uniform, wakes up tired, disheveled, and out of time. 13 mins
Part 3: You Are Not in School Anymore
Next they’ll see the positive impression Hector’s preparedness makes on his boss and the negative impression Ron makes arriving late with yesterday’s wrinkled clothes, too tired to make any worthwhile contributions. 8 mins

Part 1: I Would Have, Except…

The Stanfield Comedy Players really had fun with this. Your students will see a sampling of seven types of problem workers: the Whiner, the Slacker, the Uncooperative, the Unfocused, the Know-It-All, the Excuse-Maker, and the Undependable, and will learn how to avoid these job-killer behaviors. 13 mins
