He covers the local events that no one else wants while he watches his co-worker continue to get promoted. Though TV audiences love him and look forward to the zany humor he puts into every story, Bruce lives his life in constant frustration. He not only hates his job and rival co-worker, he hates the traffic, his car and the silly little projects his girlfriend wants him to do, like scrapbooks. Bruce curses and fumes that he just has no luck and no good breaks in life. He tells Grace that God is ignoring him, that God is like a mean kid holding a magnifying glass over an ant, burning off his tentacles and laughing.
Message- Phil immediately shows he is unhappy by the look on his face, the words he uses and the way he says them and his body language. Rita and Larry’s body language shows that they are uncomfortable with Phil’s message. Interference/Noise – This is mostly the crowd in the background made up of spectators, reporters and participants in the Puxatony groundhog presentation. The crowd doesn’t seem to have much affect on the three lead characters in the clip, although at 15seconds in Phil interferes with a few people in the background. Channel – Light and sounds waves through face to face communication.
[Makes] you late for dinner! [He] can’t think what anybody sees in them” (Tolkien 4). Considering his daily life surroundings have negative opinions about going on adventures, it is unsurprising that he feels this way. The fact that Bilbo never ventures out of his comfort zone proves that Bilbo most likely does not really know the excitement of being on an adventure. When Gandalf invites Bilbo to join the dwarves, he is flabbergasted.
His boss, Mr. Grimes, is not the appropriate figure to look up to because he never treated Tom with respect. Mr. Grimes drinks beer, frequently hits Tom, and is a man of business who does not care about anything other than himself. When he and Tom set out to do their job, Mr. Grimes rides a donkey in front as Tom is trailing behind him to catch up (Kingsley 47). He could walk next to Tom but does not care enough to think about someone else’s wishes other than his own. This behavior is extremely influential to Tom because he has no one else to look up to.

Irony comes through here as Carton, from the very beginning of A Tale of Two Cities, is a lazy, selfish man who thinks nothing of his or anyone else’s life. He has no idea why he was put on earth; he never thought that he had justification for why he was there, never really doing anything worthwhile with his life. The death that he had, though violent and seemingly unjust on Carton’s part, is what gives him the chance to better himself and realize that he did have a purpose after all. This death wasn’t meant to be torture for how he had lived his life in the past, it was meant as a reward for what he was giving up. This way, he was able to understand that he was created to save the life of a man who was innocent.
He shows no remorse for his actions and is inconsiderate of how Daisy might feel. He is lost because he has no certainty in his life and he lacks the feeling of belonging to a place of group. This is why he does the things that he does, because the only way he can cope with the horrifying idea that he has no real place to call home. To bring joy to his life, he turns to infidelity and alcoholism. Tom is also as rude as too straight up call Myrtle’s little puppy a bitch.
His physical change as far as he can see will not change his enjoyment of life, there will be no difference as he was a bug before, towing the line for the boss. He was always too busy to form lasting relationships, never being seen as a person, the personification of a deadening soul. According to Karl Marx “work is external to the worker i.e. it does not form part of his essential being so that instead of feeling well in his work, he feels unhappy, instead of developing his free physical and mental energy, he abuses his body and ruins his mind.”(Bloom. Page 107) Gregor basically is beginning self-alienation, he believes he is something hideous physically but mentally still holds onto his human conformist mindset.
Walter seems to be unsatisfied with his seemingly boring life where the most exciting task of his day is getting overshoes. This overwhelming boredom is why one would assume he is so imaginative. Walter retreats into his mind for entertainment instead of facing his unsatisfactory life. Walter Mitty is almost afraid to do exciting things and would rather be alone in his fantasy than in the real world, as he seems to be startled when “sucked” back into reality. In addition, his wife is not in any of his fantasies.
