You are legally required to negotiate with the bargaining unit, but you are not required to make concessions. If you believe negotiations have broken down, you can declare an impasse and ask that the NLRB come in to moderate negotiations. One of the hardest things to accept about a workplace conflict is that the person or people you have a problem with are in the right and, consequently, you are in the wrong. It takes guts and no small amount of humility to admit you have caused workplace conflict which otherwise could have been avoided.

God specifically forbids this to Noah after the flood and this creates a link between the consuming of blood and the committing of sins. In the story of Cain and Abel when Cain murders his brother he buries him in the ground, which “consumes his blood”. Jorstad (2016) goes into more detail on this subject but the parallel with Grendel’s consumption reveals his monstrous nature and reinforces his status as an “enemy of mankind” and Grendel’s role in the breakdown of a society. Because a union rep typically needs to be involved in all communications that can affect an employee’s working conditions, workers often have less of a chance to develop close mentoring relationships with supervisors.

What are your colleagues talking about?

The word monster originates from the Latin word monstrum, which means "to remind, warn, instruct, or foretell.” This indicates the literary purpose of a monster, they are what comes when societal laws are broken, when unnatural things occur (Dauber 2019). In most cases, employees who want to establish a bargaining unit will reach out to a union in their sector for guidance. Occasionally, a union will reach out to workers. From there, union organizers work to collect signatures until 30 percent of workers have signed a petition in favor of unionization that is then sent to the NLRB. Some workplaces are more volatile than others, but just about every group of people who work together face getting to boiling point. Even the most patient and conscientious group of colleagues can get upset and frustrated with one another.

What defines a monster, and why? Lorna Webb has been exploring the famous old English text, Beowulf, and discussing the representation of a monstrous character in this Halloween-themed blog post! IntroductionLabor unions (or organizations) come in a variety of categories, but are generally defined as a group of workers who come together to negotiate on behalf of their fellow workers. The profile of unionized workers has changed over the years. Today’s union workers often have associate’s degrees and nearly half have a bachelor’s degree. The majority work in: First, this practice supports us in seeing that our emotions are not personal. I am not my emotions, and you are not yours. Emotions arise based on a wide range of situations and conditions in our lives. Yet we often act as if our total existence is that emotion. Our lives contract around our emotions and we give them the power to pull us along. As we practice visualizing emotions in a parade, the reminder is that they are also not permanent. Emotions not only come, they also go. They are not permanent or solid or stable. They are just passing by. Yet, if we try to ignore them, they clamor for our attention in a variety of ways. After all, it is a parade, and they want to be seen! If we get pulled into the parade with them, we no longer have the full view and can get swept up and away. Once a union is in place, it is essential that HR maintain a healthy working relationship with union personnel and employee representatives. It is also the responsibility of HR to train managers on best practices for working with unions and leading teams effectively in a union environment: Employees may find it difficult to have necessary one-on-one conversations with managers or HR, even when it involves extremely private matters.

Blake L (2012) The wounds of nations: horror cinema, historical trauma and national identity. Manchester University Press, Manchester Kozlowska and Hanney ( 2001, p. 51) and Crittenden ( 1997), note that prior to developing language, memories may be ‘imaged’ as infant’s experience ‘perceptual sensory images of the contexts associated with safety or danger, such as sounds, darkness, smells, visual images and bodily states’. Clients may experience difficulty verbalising affective states in trauma therapy, and art therapy may better capture these early memories, stored and remembered as images. The ‘non-verbal medium’ of art can enable us to access and visually express imaged memories, symbolic of experience, allowing ‘exposure to conscious reflection and cortical processing’ and emergent images can be used therapeutically to symbolise and process trauma towards ‘adaptive integration’ of experience (Kozlowska and Hanney, 2001, p. 52). Clements ( 1996) noted monsters (or grotesque figures) frequently present in art therapy with children as metaphors to describe trauma or abusive adults (Kozlowska and Hanney, 2001, p. 52). Art can provide a ‘transitional space’ to ‘externalise’ a concrete representation of trauma experience and discussion of artwork can enable meaning and sequence to be attached through constructing a narrative. Indirect exposure to experience through symbolisation permits ‘anxiety to be tolerated and the unspeakable and unthinkable to be contemplated’ (Kozlowska and Hanney, 2001, p. 53). Symbolic imagery of trauma experience can in this way provide a more tolerable way to represent, process and integrate experience. The first step to working with difficult emotions in this way is to clearly see what we are experiencing in the moment. Seeing the emotion for what it is and naming it. Saying something like “There is sadness.” Or “I see you fear.” Instead of how we often identify emotions which is “I am angry.” Again, we are not our emotions, and this practice can help us to really experience that truth more directly. It could be as simple as saying “Ahhh, there you are, angry monster.” 2) Get to know your monster Grievances are time-consuming, undermine management, and can even lead to strikes or demands to renegotiate the current contract.

Beowulf, as a written source appears at a time where both pagan religions and Christianity intersect. This means that elements from both cultures are contained in the manuscript.
