Luis Cardenas Having deep family roots and many friends, Luis Cardenas comes from the largest city in the state baring his B.A. and a teaching credential. About nine years ago when he was a sophomore in high school Luis automatically knew teaching was his dream job after his wonderful experience teaching crafts to 10-year-old boys. Having the sensation of being a slave as a paralegal in a large law firm for half a year, and another half a year as a junior executive has only made him realize his desire to become a teacher. Luis’ student-teaching experience came as a realization to him not only in a positive way but in a negative way as well.
He starts off small and then works his way up the social gang ladder. At first hes doing the dirty work of the gang like getting them drinks, bringing them food, making phone calls and picking up letter for the gang. Basically he was the groupie that just wanted to be with them doing what they do best, Steal. They would steal everything and no one would say anything cause they would all get a piece. They would rob airlines and pay off the guards and police.
Running Head: Peter L. Berger Peter L. Berger: Invitation to Society Nicole Sheldon Monroe Community College Peter L Berger’s, Invitation to Society appeared most appealing to me for this topic discussion because he helps to explain why sociologist do the things they do and see things the way they see them. It is not always clear as to why certain professionals go about their jobs the way they do. Sociology is assumably one of the most confusing of the professional world. Police Officers uncontestably drive around the cities searching for “rules” or “laws” in which people are breaking; while teachers are filling kids and young adults with knowledge to help them in society. Sociology on the other hand is not so thoroughly understood.
The Banks, the local authority and even the mobile phone companies have all adopted the same bureaucratic stance and use the same tactics to bully us into submission on a daily basis. What is even more infuriating is that they take our money, use it, in ways which we do not agree with and then use more of our money to bully us into accepting their decisions, hiding behind faceless call centres which are staffed by unknowledgeable people who seem devoid of any sort of common sense of ability to make a decision and provide a buffer for the clowns who make mistake in these large institutions. And give us all a nervous breakdown in the process by the injustice of their actions. Something is seriously wrong here.
In the ending scene of the play 'The History Boys' the audience get to see how each of the students developed after University. Dakin was most influenced by Irwin and ended up being a “tax lawyer telling highly paid fibs”. He followed the belief that in order to achieve the most from his life, he needed to gain a career in a good profession, just like Irwin would have influenced. Characters such as Posner were heavily influenced by Hector and his attitude towards the education system and later life. The audience get told that in Posner's future, “he haunts the local library and keeps a scrapbook of the achievements of his one-time classmates.” Although this has a comical element, sympathy is implied upon the audience.
This shows all the torment the people of the working class were put through just so they could live. Moreover, Estaban Trueba did not treat the people of Tres Marias right because of the fact that he made his own

The repossession man sacrifices a normal life and job to keep people from getting away with failing to pay for their artificial organ. The man sacrifices his safety by taking up this particular job. The people that he is repossessing from will, most likely, be afraid and angry at him. When people are afraid or angry, they are likely to try and defend themselves. For example, a woman beats the repossession man with her purse because he is repossessing an artificial liver from the man that she went home with (5).

The destructor I can’t believe this, a stranger enters my gang, well i should say “T´s” gang now and my friends prefer to pay attention to him instead of their leader for a long time. How can this happen, I can’t really understand it. Mike, Summers, all looking and listening to him, as if he was something big. It was amazing, how can someone like to have him as the leader of a gang… I can´t understand it. All the anger came to my mind, I couldn´t keep listening to him anymore, so I walked towards the back of the car park.
