points

From the readings and the class discussion I have learned that the points system is a lot more important than just one or two, high or low. It could mean a promotion to one over his peers or a passing grade rather than a failing grade. They are also very important when used when booking trips so one could gain the best rates for the lowest out of pocket amount. In the military we use a points system in order to gain rank and gain a higher position. One point could mean the difference between a promotion or not which also depends if one were to be entitled to a pay increase or not. This could also effect someone's chances of a big scholarship or valedictorian and the ability to attend any school upon graduation. In these examples the points are not able to be altered or negotiated as something like pay or a possible promotion.  When interviewing someone could give the employer a range of numbers and have them set up just like the example from class and the books. All of the examples I have provided could help or hurt one depending on which direction the points go. If you were to develop a strong honest relationship with your partner they will normally treat you with the same respect and things will work out in favor for both of you.
