B. Confirm content:

1. Which may be the most important in determing a new worker's succes: knowledge, work habits, or skills?
   I think work habits are the most important thing when we have a job for the first time, because we have to adapt to the work environment, the skills and knowledge can not be fully displayed if we don't have good work habits which help us to improve the thing we already know.
   
   
2. Why should workers volunteer to do tasks?
   Because being a volunteer can help the workers to be more known in the office and give the impression that they're very skilled and reliable at variety of things. And being a volunteer can increase worker confidence and comunication between others.
   
   
3. Why is "being nice" a valuable habit to develop?
   Because that shows the worker is repectful to others regardless who they are.
   Being nice is always a way to say that you're a kind person and trustworthy. Also, it makes your co-workers can help you at things that you don't know how to do.
   
   
4. What is the value of prioritizing tasks?
   Prioritizing tasks helps the worker to do an impeccable work and focus in the important things to the office.
   Also, makes the worker a more organized and efficient person. 
   
   
5. How does staying positive help you be more productive?
   Positivism is good when we feel down sometimes, it helps to think alternatives to the problems and search for solutions in order to achieve a goal. When we stay positive, we are focused.
   
   
6. What's wrong with stating a problem without proposing a solution?
   People could thing we are a "complainer", which means we're being negative and someone who always are in a bad mood about something and does nothing to solve the situation.
