Nick Fletcher has the voice of a god and a tongue as sharp as a knife. His words can cut, and this time, his quick temper has earned him an intruder in his life and on his tour.Dalia Brenner looks like a grown-up Annie gone bad, but he wants nothing to do with her pin-up worthy curves and smart mouth. His method of dealing is to keep his head down, get through the tour, and then he'll never have to see her again.Dalia has no intention of having heart-to-hearts with Nick. They share a bus and sleep three feet apart every night, but that doesn't mean she can't ignore the scowly, grumpy lead singer.Except she can't seem to deny the annoying instinct to "fix" the pain and grief behind Nick's sea glass eyes, even though she definitely knows better.And Nick, well, he's getting tired of denying Dalia...period.Dalia has plans though, and none of them involve being a rock star's girlfriend. Too bad Nick couldn't disagree more.

The story revolves around an employee who expresses her frustrations with her unbearable boss, Elliot Levy, through secret notes hidden in her desk. These candid messages reveal her true feelings and create a humorous yet relatable exploration of workplace dynamics and the challenges of dealing with difficult authority figures. As she navigates her feelings, the narrative promises a blend of wit and emotional depth, ultimately addressing themes of communication and self-assertion in a professional setting.

***This is a special edition of Dear Grumpy Boss*** I've spent the better part of the last few years successfully avoiding my brother's best friend, Weston Aldrich. As CEO of Andes Inc, the infuriatingly handsome and incessantly grumpy Weston also happens to be my new boss. It shouldn't have been hard to continue avoiding him. After all, he's on the executive floor and I'm one of many copywriters. Weston has his own ideas about how things should go between us. He's in my emails, leaving notes on my desk, and as if that's not enough, he arranges for me to accompany him on a business trip. That leads to stolen touches, frenzied kisses, and the undeniable need to work each other out of our systems. That always works, right? Except now that I know what it feels like to have Weston Aldrich appreciate every inch of my abundant curves, avoiding him is impossible. But he's my brother's best friend. And a workaholic. We have to stop. And we will. Soon. Just...not yet.

Foreword Among researchers in the business and management disciplines, there is some kind of a common understanding that research should provide models, concepts and solutions for practical problems. In other words: research is practice-oriented and, personally, I subscribe to this maxim. Still, sometimes, it is important to pause for a moment and reflect upon one’s own activities. The present thesis is one of those comparatively few pieces of research that do so by dealing with the scientific side of research and by asking a number of questions that target at the identification of the nature of a very recent subfield within business and management, namely Supply Chain Management. In particular, the author seeks to understand the processes that characterize the evolution of Supply Chain Management research throughout the past sixteen years and reflects upon avenues for future research - feeling that SCM research seems to have come to a crossroads. The systematic reprocessing of Supply Chain Management literature and the methodologically sound approach are impressive and enable Julia Wolf to contribute a valuable component to scientific practice and debate in this area. Her work also illustrates that, in terms of philosophical underpinnings, research in Supply Chain Management is still at the very beginning and I hope that this thesis gives rise to more work of similar kind.

Our ability to understand others is one of the most central parts of human life, but explaining how this ability develops remains a controversial issue, exercising psychologists and philosophers alike. Within this literature the Paradox of False Belief Understanding remains one of the main open challenges. Based on an up to date overview of the empirical and theoretical literature, this book highlights the significance of this paradox for our understanding of the development of social cognition and provides a new explanation of it in the form of the Situational Mental File Account. Central features of the account are, firstly, identitfying three distinct stages in the development of belief understanding and, secondly, elaborating the role of both cognitive and situational factors as well as their interaction in the development of belief understanding. This account is also applied to the related phenomenon of pretend play, demonstrating the potential for a wider application of the account. This account generates both new empirical predications and a framework for further theoretical work, thereby providing a fruitful ground for further interdisciplinary research in this area.

Es sind immer die Töchter, die fragen! Die drei ›Mädchen aus Ostpreußen‹, Anni, Else und Hannelore, sollen für eine Image- kampagne ihrer Seniorenresidenz Modell stehen. Während ›Germany’s Next Topmodel‹ läuft, verhandeln die drei Mitt- neunzigerinnen, was sie über ihr Leben erzählen wollen – und was nicht. Im Auto unterwegs nach Polen schickt Gudrun eine Sprachnachricht. Ihre Nichte soll vom Tod der Großmutter erfahren. Doch Gudrun schweift ab, erzählt von der Flucht bei Kriegsende, ihrer Kindheit in den 1950ern. Plötzlich wird klar: Sie muss etwas gestehen. Undine, Jenny und Thao verbringen ein Wochenende in Berlin, bevor Jenny ihr erstes Kind bekommt. Neben den Erinne- rungen an ihre Kindheit und Jugend in den 1980ern und 1990ern treten auch die sozialen Unterschiede wieder ans Licht. Während sie ihre Lebensentscheidungen neu bewerten, setzen die Wehen ein. In drei Teilen, »Marjellchen«, »Neue Heimat, altes Haus« und »MILF«, porträtiert Julia Wolf drei Frauengenerationen, indem sie den Wunden, Werten und Erfahrungen der Kriegszeit nachspürt. Mit Alte Mädchen ergänzt Julia Wolf die deutsche Nachkriegsgeschichte um eine wichtige Erzählung weiblicher Subjektivität, die uns die Augen öffnet: dafür, woher wir kommen, wohin wir gehen, was wir mitnehmen und was wir loslassen sollten.

Szkolny bad boy obrał ją sobie na cel! Dla fanów Punk 57 i Dręczyciela. Osiemnastoletnia Grace Patel po dwóch latach wróciła do starej szkoły. Chce, żeby tym razem wszystko było inaczej niż wcześniej. Nie będzie starała się zyskać uznania w oczach rówieśników, postawi na dobre stopnie i spróbuje być niewidzialną na korytarzach. Jednak już pierwsze dni w szkole pokazują, że to niemożliwe. Przykuła uwagę Sebastiana Vegi: chłopaka, o którym marzyły wszystkie dziewczyny, a który w niej wzbudzał jedynie strach. Wystarczyło, że na nią spojrzał, by Grace czuła na plecach dreszcze przerażenia. Co takiego miał w sobie, że do tego stopnia tak na nią działał? Dlaczego wybrał właśnie ją? I czy jest szansa, że da jej spokój? Opis pochodzi od wydawcy.

Die Masterarbeit untersucht die widersprüchlichen Anforderungen in der Interaktionsarbeit im Einzelhandel. Zunächst wird der empirische Gegenstand beschrieben, um ein theoretisches Verständnis von Interaktionsarbeit, betrieblicher Gesundheitsförderung und Gefährdungsbeurteilungen zu entwickeln. Ein geschlechtssensibler Ansatz wird ebenfalls berücksichtigt, um den Forschungsstand umfassend zu beleuchten. Auf Basis dieser theoretischen Grundlagen werden konkrete Untersuchungsfragen und Unterfragen formuliert, die die Komplexität der Arbeitsanforderungen im Einzelhandel reflektieren.
