About six years ago my uncle had broken his back. Yes, it was scary, but we all thought he was going to be okay because it wasn’t too serious. But we were all wrong when he got his surgery and nothing had happened. And that was the beginning of my uncle’s depressing life. He has had about ten surgeries since then and every time something has gone, for example his last surgery they put a shocker in his back.
I (Pat) then called a meeting to announce that the plant you be moving to a 10 hour a day 4 day work week and that all overtime would now need to be preapproved by Paul. As a result the employees slow down work in order get opportunities for overtime. Paul, noticing this, stopped giving out overtime all together. This caused even more resentment toward management by employees. Paul then posted strict guidelines for what is expected from employees and what punishment they may receive for not adhering to his new rules.
More importantly, it hurts the lives of the many people that were working for Hostess. They can't make a living without a job, without a job they wouldn't have the money to pay for their bills or even their house and might even add to the growing population of homeless people. It would also hurt the states in which the bakeries or plants were shut down. Also, the liquidation affects the people who love Hostess, people who grew up with Hostess, and the new-coming babies that won't be able to enjoy any of their products anymore. The Union is supposed to help the economy, not take away businesses that will help it.
Karen may have been more upset at herself than her company. At the time she thought money was her main motivator. She came to the realization that out of the three motivators money, recognition, and cause (Gunn and Gullickson, 2007) that her main motivator was recognition. The fact that her main motivator was being fulfilled could be the reason why she undervalued her work and failed to ask for an adequate raise. Another assumption is that women often took jobs for the wrong reasons (Gunn and Gullickson, 2007).
If I were a human resource manager, I would be ashamed and I would feel like I didn't do my job, and that I just ignored a safety issue that was serious. The lawsuit costed the company a lot money and I would be afraid that I would lose my job over the lawsuit. The courts verdict would affect me greatly and I would be ashamed to go back to work. Their was no explanation as to why the safety complaints were never investigated
She didn’t enjoy her time spent there so why she was so willing to come back. Some people never get enough of the life they live even if it‘s bad . Its just like a women who is in a abusive relationship and we wonder why the never leave. Its because once someone adapted to a certain life style the desire for change is slim to none. The narrative made it clear that she didn’t fit in with the people in her town but feared leaving because that lifestyle was all she ever known.
Don Elias didn’t go out and make an honest living. He was only respected by the people around him because they feared him. Dona Matilida was not seen as an equal partner in the relationship. She was more of a servant to Don Elias. I believe that when they first got married there was some kind of love in their relationship, but when they realized they could not conceive a child Don Elias blamed his wife.
Ironically, she is admitting Summers’ first point by herself implying that even she does not want to work 80 hours and she further argues that women are discouraged from making these time commitments because of discrimination in terms of earnings. This is ironic because Tong states that Summers is wrong and then through her offered proof confirms that women are hesitant to work 80 hours per week because it isn’t necessary or because they will suffer discrimination in terms of earnings. Unintentionally, Tong seems
America is continuously altered the cutback in jobs that are still obtainable by high paid craftsman/women. Multiple individuals have gone without employment due to the decrease in the cost-cutting measure that our society is currently going though. However, these individuals workers are incapable to find employment within a new employer they seek employment with a current workforce. Due to the increase in quantified craftsman/women employees who try to take legal action or try to sue partners/employers that they work for of past employers are altering the way they manage to try to put a stop to any past/present employers. Some companies bend over training employees to succeed up the ladder to success to explore and prevent any litigation from possible being brought against them and their
Also, depending on the industry, in order to give consumers the low prices that they hold as the Holy Grail manufacturers often have to give up the quality of the product. I have worked in retail for over ten years and I see this on a daily basis. People get upset when their $12 flip flops blow out, but when you show them the $50 flip flops that come with a 5 year warranty, most of the time they want nothing to do with it. Fashion of course is an industry that doesn’t make items obsolete, but things simply go out of style. But once again, the fashion retail industry doesn’t force people to go out and buy the latest trends.
