INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The following are signs that your relationship is suffering:  You are fighting more than usual. She hasn't contacted you in several days. Either one of you has totally lost interest in sex. (Remember that this could be due to a variety of factors, like a death in the family, personal insecurities, or excess stress).  She continuously cancels plans without suggesting a different date. One of you has been dating/sleeping with somebody else. One of you suggests a "break." No matter what either of you says, a break is usually just a segue into an official break-up. Either one of you has become physically abusive. If this is the case, then it's time to end the relationship and seek professional help to cope with the issue. Never make an excuse for domestic violence. The only way to fix a problem in any relationship is for both parties to first be made aware of the issue. Remember that sometimes people are totally unaware of their own behavior. Once you have talked about the issue at hand and have both voiced your views and opinions, come to an agreement about what to do next. Come up with something that both parties can get on board with and feel comfortable with.  If you can't reach an agreement, then consider couples therapy. Getting the opinion of a third party will help put things in perspective and allow you to rationally sort of the issue from an objective standpoint. Know when the relationship can't be fixed. If you or your girlfriend are chronically unhappy in the relationship, then don't force things. Making healthy compromises to keep a relationship alive is one thing, but making yourself miserable to maintain the status quo will not do either of you any good. Some issues just need a little time to blow over. If you recently had a big fight, give each other space for a day or two. Chances are that the issue will resolve itself, and being apart will remind you both how much you care for one another.

SUMMARY: Learn to know when something is wrong. Talk about the issue with your girlfriend. Reach a compromise. Be patient.

A clean, polished deck will look finished if all broken parts are replaced beforehand. Check your deck for insecure bannisters or split boards. Be on especial lookout for safety threats, like rusty screws or bolts, uneven board edges, splintering, and protruding screws, nails, or bolts. If you can, check the underside of your deck, too, to look for problems in your concrete pier blocks, joists, hangers, and deck boards. Cleaning solutions or pressure washers can damage your deck furniture, and excessive trash littering the deck will make washing ineffective. Bring any patio chairs, grills, flower pots, and any other items indoors or on the grass while you clean. Carry a trash bag with you, and  pick up any garbage or yard waste as you go. Check in-between plank slats for hard-to-reach debris. Start sweeping from one end of the deck and work your way to the other side. Break up the deck into small sections, and periodically sweep your dirt piles into a dustpan. Continue sweeping until you've cleared the entire deck of dirt, dust, and leaves.  You can also use a wet/dry shop vacuum with a bristle brush or small place attachment, if you have one available. Wash off your broom with dish soap and water beforehand to avoid adding excess dirt to your deck. Soap and cleaning solutions can damage your plants, but water can help soap slide off. Hose down your yard plants, especially fruit or vegetable plants. For added protection, drape plastic wrap or drop cloths over delicate plants.  Be sure you have adequate drainage away from your deck before you start to hose. Otherwise you could get water pooling under your deck, which may cause additional problems. After you've finished cleaning the deck, remove the plastic wrap immediately. Washing your deck can make moldy areas worse. Scrub moldy deck areas with specialized deck cleaner or bleach to remove the mold and kill spores. Spray your deck with water to remove residual bleach. Locate the source of the mold and pay particular attention to that area during treatment to more permanently remove mold.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: As mentioned previously, there are pros and cons to each option that need to be taken into consideration before making a decision. The major con to resigning is that you most likely will not be eligible for unemployment benefits. Some pros to resigning include:  Being able to spin your reason for leaving positively. You do not need to say you were fired or asked to leave. The reason given for termination by your employer will be “resignation”. You may be able to negotiate a severance package. The company wants you to leave and at this point you may have the upper hand in a way, even if you don't feel like that's the case. In exchange for you leaving peacefully, you may be able to negotiate a severance package to include a few months of pay and benefits. The pros to waiting to be fired can outweigh the cons if you need the unemployment benefits and feel you will be eligible given your circumstances. If you are fired for no reason of your own, you have a very good change to receive these benefits. Additionally, if you feel your termination is wrongful and/or discriminatory, you may be able to file a suit against this employer. On the other hand, the cons to waiting to be fired include:  You may not eligible for a severance package. You may receive bad references if another company contacts this employer. Your reason for termination will be stated as “fired” or “terminated” and possible reasons for termination can be disclosed (based on company policy as mentioned previously). For example, “The employee was terminated due to gross misconduct”. Based on your evaluation of the pros and cons to both options, you must make a decision and express this to your employer as soon as possible. If you took some time out to make your decision, you will have to request another meeting to include all members in the original meeting. During the meeting:  Briefly explain whether you have decided to resign or stay. Keep your explanation simple and professional. Do not get overly emotional or angry. Be prepared to leave that day. The employer may not take any chances and open themselves up to any risk by letting a possible disgruntled employee stay on the premises. If you have chosen to wait to be fired, be prepared to be fired that day. Be prepared to move on once you have made your decision and notified your employer. Since you will be leaving your position one way or another, it is now time for you to prepare yourself for your next career move.

Evaluate the pros and cons of resigning. Evaluate the pros and cons of waiting to be fired. Make a decision that is right for you and notify your employer. Prepare to move on.
