Work Outfit Nowadays, every company and organization has its own rules and standards. Some of these organizations are more formal and old-style, while others are modern and easygoing. On one hand, more traditional companies generally ask their employees to dress up. Men are often required to wear a suit; sometimes a shirt and a blazer is not enough, and employers can even require to wear a tie. Women have less strict rules, considering the variety of the formal outfits they can wear. They may wear a pantsuit, an appropriate dress or simply a pair of pants or a pencil skirt and a shirt. We can see this attitude in many law firm, international organizations, banks, diplomatic institutions etc. On the other hand modern and casual organizations, do not really pay too much attention to the outfit of their employees. Those who work for these organizations can wear whatever they prefer, within the bounds of common sense. A big number of the "Silicon Valley" companies adopt this mindset. Overall, I believe that working for an easygoing company rather than for a formal one is definitely better. I think that being forced to wear an outfit in which people may not feel comfortable may influence their performance. I also believe that freedom of expression should always be protected and promoted. Modern society should stop focusing overly on appearance and should pay more attention to other more relevant aspects, such as ethic at the workplace. In conclusion I think that the importance of appearance is sometimes overrated. People at work should simply wear a respectable outfit without being requested to pay too much attention on it. They should otherwise focus on more relevant and vital aspects of their job.

Short essay about Online shopping The way of buying has significantly changed over the past few decades. The spread of the internet and the globalization system give us an immediate access to goods and services, that are produced in every part of the world. Each person living in a developed country has probably, at least once in his/her life, bought something on the web. A big amount of the online stores sell their goods for convenient prices and ship most of customers' purchases without charging extra costs. For instance, the Amazon colossus delivers almost everything within one day, requiring only to pay a little amount per year. That is a huge benefit for those who want to save money. Moreover, if someone do not have the time to look for something in the stores around the city, it is really useful to receive it directly at home. On the other hand, this system of purchases is having a strong impact on local shops. The harsh rules of the globalization tend to penalize those who are smaller, and who do not have enough resources to keep up with the market requirements. Many stores can be even forced to close if their income is not sufficient to pay all the expenses. I love buying online and I often do it. But, thinking about the consequences, sometimes I feel like I am not acting ethically. In conclusion I believe that online shopping can improve the life-quality of buyers. However its reflects on the local economies may be extremely damaging. That is why our society should try to balance the needs of the consumers with the protection of local traders.
