1) During the time of this semester, at my job I was directed to upload images of the store, products, deliveries, and everything the store would be getting involved in on our Facebook and Instagram page. I would go outside and walk the 22 Acre lot of different plants, shrubs and trees and take what I thought were great pictures to make posts out of. I would do this maybe three to four times a week on top of all of all of the restocking and other things I was doing around the shop. Ultimately I was told by my boss that the months worth of pictures I had of all of the products in his shop were incorrect, and I needed to take new pictures. Another thing I had done wrong was file them incorrectly in the company files, so there were a few pictures of shrubs in the flower section, trees in the shrub section, etc.
2) What I learned from this was that I did not have the same vision for the companies social media posts as did my boss had envisioned. Another thing is that we do work well together, his hard work and the creativity and knowledge of the social media marketing skills I have developed really helps me deliver something that is useful to him. One thing I like to reflect on over my days of working there is learning that even when my boss may be wrong and you know it for a fact, he is still going to be right.
3) Failure to me is related along the lines, in my eyes, as not giving any effort for something you want. If you are trying to achieve a life goal, failures are the best way to help lead you into the right direction. Failures help you learn from what has happened before that shouldn't have, and wont next time that opportunity comes around. Emotionally, I react to failure as a sort of constructive criticism teaching me not to do the same thing when it comes time to execute something again or to take a different approach to the way things should be properly done.
