They are a key to consistency, and to Coughlin consistency leads to routine, and routine leads to preparedness, and preparedness leads to proper execution.
Familiarity tends to breed routine, and routine doesn't typically lead to exciting new ideas.
Abraham Joshua Heschel said, "Life is routine and routine is resistance to wonder". As we get older this statement may seem to ring true more often, but it doesn't have to be this way.
Direct comparison with the results of this study is difficult because non-routine and routine screening were combined into an 'ever been screened' category for this analysis.
In 2003 41% of men and 39% of women in semi-routine and routine occupations smoked cigarettes compared to 17% of men and 16% of women in professional and managerial occupations [ 2].
The self-coded version of the NS-SEC used in this study has five classes of occupation: managerial and professional; intermediate; small employers and own account workers; lower supervisory and technical; semi-routine and routine.
Just over three-quarters of responding GPs had one or more parents in NS-SEC 1 (higher managerial and professional occupations) when they applied to medical school, with only 4.3%% having parents in NS-SEC 5 (semi-routine and routine occupations).
The demographic characteristics assessed were age, sex and social grade (dichotomized into two categories: ABC1, which includes managerial, professional and intermediate occupations; and C2DE, which includes small employers and own-account workers, lower supervisory and technical occupations, and semi-routine and routine occupations, never workers and long-term unemployed).
Demographic characteristics we took into account were age, sex, and social grade (AB = managerial and professional occupations, C1 = intermediate occupations, C2 = small employers and own account workers, D = lower supervisory and technical occupations, and E = semi-routine and routine occupations, never workers, and long-term unemployed).
We combined these factors by using an algorithm to derive the NS-SEC category for the sole or highest scoring parent/carer, in five groups: managerial and professional, intermediate, small employers and own account workers, lower supervisory and technical, and semi-routine and routine occupations.
We were just disgusted with Steinschneider". For Thelma, talking to Steinschneider about Molly Hoyt had become nearly routine--and routinely fruitless.
