Ergonomics Ergonomics is a way of arranging items for a safe and comfortable area. Ex. An office with a computer must be designed to be safe but still comfortable. Employers and employees should be concerned about ergonomics because: employers should be giving their employees a safe and comfortable place to work so they’re work habits do not decrease and they are willing to come back to work. Employees will quickly have their work decrease because being uncomfortable has a big deal in the work we do for example if school was held in a dumpster with an aggressive pit-bull on a leash, we would certainly not be doing our best. At least I know I wouldn’t be able to concentrate.

File Sharing It depends on what is in the file. For example it has been proven that downloading music and putting it in a shared folder for others, is legal. If in the file it had a picture of someone, that is illegal. If it had an illegally downloaded game, its illegal.

File Sharing Opinion In my own opinion file sharing should be legal only in a few terms. For example if it was music or a movie I think it should be legal. Maybe games but it would depend on the game, because lets face it, games are getting extremely expensive.
