Learning Activity 2 Evidence: Giving Advice: Fuente: SENA
These people are facing changes in their life. Read their situations below:
I don’t really feel comfortable with this new idea of telecommuting. I wish I
could come to the office every day I have done for the past 5 years.
My name is Amanda. I am a hairdresser. I work in a beauty shop in the north of
the city. I am a single mother and have two beautiful sons. Mike is nine and
Steve is two. While I work, my mother takes care of my sons. She has always
supported me. But now my mom is really sick. The doctor recommended her
moving to a quieter place. So, she is moving in with my brother who lives in a
small town. If my mother moves, I will probably have to quit my job as I don’t
have anybody to take care of my kids. I wouldn’t leave them with a stranger,
especially the little one.
Aspects to consider:
Include ideas and vocabulary related to flexibility and adaptability learned in the
study material. In the letter, underline the ideas included. Include at least 3
ideas.

Dear Gary
My name is David. I am a member of the SENA community. I read your story and I want to
give you some advice about your situation
In my personal opinion, I think that adapting to change is the best thing you can do, go
with the flow and look at the positive side of the situation. I would suggest that you enjoy
being at home, that you rest and when you need the help of a colleague, call him and ask
him about your doubts, now with the tools offered by technology it is very easy to connect
with your coworkers. You can also try to make video calls sometimes with your colleagues
to interact with them via Skype, teams, meet or zoom. In conclusion, I think that you can
save time to do your work because you do not have to leave the house or take a bus; stay
positive to cope with changes. I think your boss is a good person and wants the best for his
employees. In this quarantine time it is important to stay home and continue to telework.
Relax, and please stay home
Sincerely
David Lopez
