Proffesor
Among the four language skills, writing has always been the most challenging. Although it is clear to me what I want to say, somehow it does not translate to my writing. People tend to give a different interpretation of my writing, while at times people would come to me to clarify about what I was trying to say in my letter or written report. Despite my best efforts, I find that my writing tone, style, and at times, the use of punctuation, are the main problems in writing that hamper me from expressing myself effectively. Having identified my writing weaknesses, I plan to work on them the best I can. In order to improve my tone in writing, I plan to be mindful of my topic and stick with it from start to finish toavoid deviating from it. In the same manner, I will also try to avoid overemphasising on certain ideas as I find that I do this most of the time. I find that using straightforward language will help me boost my writing, so as trimming my sentences and using the right punctuations so as to to convey my message clearly.
After looking at my writing skill, I have expanded my observation to takea good look around me and identify problems that I must have relegated at the back of my head due to some more pressing issues. One of these is the issue about pay. Althoug h the current wage for law enforcement officers like me is above average,the changing times have made it difficult for us to fulfill our financial needs and responsibilities. There are simply too many things, both in the needs and wants list, to financially address these days and what we are getting every month is making it impossible to do so. It is my hope, along with my colleagues, that the issue about pay raise will be addressed soon. Also, like most, if not all, police officers like me, I hope that promotion on the job will also be addressed accordingly in the near future. There is nothing more fulfilling in a job than being recognized and rewarded appropritately for all the hard work and dedication that one has put in.
