Their tendency to exaggerate and take on more then they can handle usually results in missed deadlines and dropping the ball-not because they are lazy of procrastinate, but becausetheir enthusiasm just gets the better of them sometimes.

They are completely scrupulous, so much so that theycan be self-disparaging. But they are no pushovers. They can wear downeven the toughest customers. Their persistence is incredible. Once they set their sights on a goal, they work away at it until the bitterend-whether the goal be that hard sell or the new hardware release.Capricorns don't work for free, however. They expect to be paid handsomely and be given more and more responsibility. They need to come out ahead ofthe pack in the end, and they see the work environment as their primaryvehicle. They won't go in for the typical office gossip and politics, though. They want to get down to business at work and see it as no placefor fooling around. With a strong sense of duty and respect towards theirsuperiors, it is rare they will join in on boss-bashing or knocking the system. They can get frustrated, however, with blue sky management schemesthat lack common sense, and they will interject their dry sense of humorin the most critical ways. If they want change, they will be unyielding. If all their effort leads to naught the result will be deep moods of darkness and depression with a sense of hopelessness. Keep your Capricorn employee happy by paying them fairly and giving them plenty of hard work. Arrange for a path of advancement within your organization for them. If you don't, you might find them looking for other opportunities.

Whatever they are doing, they will do conscientiously. They usually havestrict personal codes that include a strong work ethic. Their bright, off-beat intelligence, and trustworthiness will typically gain them many friends-in and out of work.

Pisces Employee Profile (February 20 - march 20)

The Pisces employee can be a loyal and hard-working, if unconventional, worker. In the right position, they are able to keep their daydreams in check and buckle down on the detail work-giving their all to the boss andcorporation whom they feel are worthy of devotion. On the flip side, thereis no image of extreme misery like that of an ill-placed Pisces worker. They will act as though their cubicle were a prison cell as they daydreamof their own business or next vacation. Unhappy Pisces workers usually won't stickaround too long. Often Pisceans will drift from one job to another looking for that ideal environment to which they will be able to commitand feel a sense of purpose. And if things are going in a bad direction at the office, Pisces will be the first to sense it. They'd rather pick up and leave then wait until the problem reaches a head. Pisces are often misunderstood by their co-workers. Typically timidand introspective, they usually keep their true nature hidden, for fear it wouldn't fit with the corporate culture.What motivates a Pisces employee to not only stick around but also excel? Try compliments. And show them how their work impacts the entire organization. They need to know that what they are doing is worthsomething on a grander scale. Acceptance of their unconventional organization and planning will be necessary. Just because their sales report isn't in the typical format doesn't mean it is anyless effective. Keep their environment bright and upbeat; and anafter-work cocktail wouldn't hurt .
