Trolley service was completely cut by a sympathy strike a short time after the negotiations began. The power strike also caused other strikes to follow; like when the city’s eight major hotels to close when hotel restaurant employees walked off their jobs to enforce wage demands. The Pittsburgh power strike of 1946 was a just one of the many strike during 1946. The United States was at a time where it was just coming out of the war, and workers went one strike because they knew they could get more money out of their employers. Work Cited
After calling the GM at home and explained the issue I was having he blamed me for ordering the wrong item.

The GM approaches me late Monday morning to explain that he told me the incorrect item number according to his notes taken at the time of the meeting with the GM and the customer.

The “selling” section of Enrenreich’s book was really the turning point of the book for me. The first two sections focused on jobs that I really could not relate to, as they were random businesses in areas of the United States I have never visited. When Barbara decided to take a job at Wal-‐Mart, America’s largest private employer, I was finally able to relate to her struggles because I am very familiar with the company. After reading about the struggles both Ehrenreich and her close co-‐workers faced, I am very supportive of her decision to leave Wal-‐Mart in hopes of securing a higher income job elsewhere. The company seems to really know and understand the situation their employees are in and they definitely use that to the advantage

I ‘ve got seven years experience in construction and carpentry, being the only woman on the crew, I had to jump and dodge plenty of obstacles along the way.
