Q: Taking the time to write down the specific reasons why you deserve a promotion can help you when you make your request. List your accomplishments, share examples of how your performance is exceeding expectations, and note any financial impact you have made on the company. Focus on facts that you can back up with figures. If you recently closed on a big sale or you streamlined a process that saved your company a lot of money, for instance, include the specific numbers involved in those deals to demonstrate your contribution to the company. Be sure to include any extra responsibilities that you have taken on, and discuss how you handled them in order show that you're ready for more responsibility. Your request for a promotion should be streamlined and persuasive. Practice what you plan to say over and over again until it sounds natural. Ask a close friend to listen to you make the request and to give you feedback on it. Use the feedback to help you improve your speaking points. Sometimes it can be helpful to move to another position of equal rank within your organization before you attempt to move up. This will give you a more complete understanding of how things work within the company, which may give you an edge when you ask for a promotion. Don't approach your boss about a promotion when they're going to lunch or are getting ready to leave for the day. Schedule a meeting for a slower time of day so you will have your boss's undivided attention. If your boss is having a particularly bad day, reschedule the meeting. It's better to wait a little longer in exchange for a better chance at success. Now is not the time to be bashful. Tell your boss exactly which position you have in mind, then use the facts you gathered to back up the reasons why you deserve to be promoted to that spot. If you want to be given a specific job title, make sure to mention that too. If you're asking for a raise, let your boss know the dollar amount you have in mind, and show them exactly how you came to that figure. Keep in mind that you should be willing to negotiate. Keep in mind that your boss has other concerns besides your career goals, and it's their job to decide who will be the best fit for a specific position. You don't want to suck up too much, but be respectful of their time and their decision. Don't complain or compare yourself to other employees, and do not threaten to leave if your request is denied. If your boss declines to give you a promotion, ask if there is anything you can do to improve your work performance. Focus on those things until another position becomes available, then try for the promotion again. Also, make sure that you are consistently working to improve your performance and letting your boss know about your accomplishments. Showing that you are consistent by giving your boss these types of updates will help to bolster your chances of earning a promotion in the future.
A: Prepare your case for why you deserve a promotion. Rehearse what you will say. Make a lateral move if you need to get more experience. Ask your boss for a promotion in the late morning or early afternoon. Be specific about what you're asking for. Ask respectfully. Don't give up if you don't succeed right away.

Q: Microneedling is not a cheap procedure and is not covered under insurance. You will need to undergo multiple sessions, along with buying products to help post-treatment. Some places charge per facial zone. For example, you may be charged $100 per facial zone. Other places may charge based on the area, for example $90 for one scar, or $150 for eyes. A few places provide deals where you get a free zone if you purchase multiple zones. Some places will give discounts if you do combined packages, such as face and neck, or face, neck, and hands. Other places charge $100-$300 per treatment, depending on the area. Neck CIT can from $150 to $250. Before you get the treatment, schedule a consultation to discuss what areas you would like and the overall price for the entire procedure, including follow up visits and any post-care products. Before you undergo CIT, you should discuss it with your dermatologist or other medical professional. Determine why you want this procedure and if the procedure will yield the results you want. Discussing the treatment with a practitioner can help determine you are suitable for treatment. This discussion also allows you to ask any questions to make sure you are knowledgeable about the procedure. CIT is available through spas or at-home treatments, but these can cause scarring and damage. You should always get CIT at places with medical professionals since the procedure breaks your skin. The inexpensive rollers or needle devices used at spas or sold for at-home treatment can have needles with poor quality. They are also shorter than ones used by professionals, so they can be less effective. CIT should be done so that the needles are inserted into your skin at a 90 degree angle. This reduces the risk of scarring and trauma. Inexpensive devices are not generally angled properly or can get bent, which may cause scarring. Many places will take a before photo prior to your first treatment. Then, after a month or more, they will take an after photograph. These photographs are used to show a comparison of your skin pre and post treatment.
A: Know the costs of the procedure. Discuss the procedure with a dermatologist or practitioner. Visit a certified specialist or facility. Prepare to provide before and after photographs.

Q: While picking sheets that fit well won't automatically stop them from popping off, it can help. Start by measuring the depth of your mattress. When you look at sheets, make sure they fit the mattress you have, as you may need deeper or shallower sheets, depending on your mattress. If your kids are constantly pulling their sheets off, you may want to switch to zipping sheets. The main part of the sheet goes under the bed, but you only put it on once. The top of the sheet zips off, so you can change it out as needed. With the zipper, the sheets stay in place. For adults, try drawstring sheets, which allow you to tighten the sheets on the bed underneath the mattress. You may have seen the corners that you place under rugs to keep them from moving. You can also use these for your sheets. Place 1 under each corner of the mattress, and then put the sheets on as normal. The stickiness of the corners keep the sheets in place. Foam can also work for this purpose. Sometimes, if you have silk sheets or other smooth sheets, they're more likely to pop off. Try placing a rougher sheet underneath the fitted sheet, such as a flannel sheet, to help keep the top one from popping off.
A: Pick the correct-sized sheets. Use zipping sheets for babies and kids. Place non-slip rug corners under the mattress. Place a rougher sheet underneath the softer sheet.

Q: Apple trees must be planted in pairs in order to bear fruitapple trees are not self-pollinating, so they need a different kind of apple tree to pollinate with. You can either extract the seeds from an apple you are eating, or buy apple seeds at the store. Keep in mind that growing an apple tree from the seeds you have collected does not necessarily guarantee that the tree produced from these seeds will bear fruit or be the same kind of apple. Try to pick or buy seeds of apple trees that do well in your climate zone or else your tree may die once planted outside. If you want to grow apples for their fruit, it is recommended that you buy a sapling tree from a nursery rather than growing an apple tree from seed. To learn how to transplant a young tree, click here. When attempting to grow an apple tree from seed, you should also keep in mind that the tree produced will not have any dwarfing characteristics (meaning that it will grow to its full height of about 30 feet/9 meters). If you think you have enough room in your yard for this tree, great! You should also keep in mind that trees planted from seeds could take 8 to 10 years to produce fruit, while a transplanted sapling will produce fruit in a much faster time frame.
A:
Collect two different kinds of seeds.
