Indifference In Night

In the novel The Jungle, Upton Sinclair illustrates that “Neither the squeals of hogs nor tears of visitors made any difference to [the workers]; one by one they hooked up the hogs, and one by one with a swift stroke they slit their throats” exemplifying the desensitization of workers in the meat-packing industry (Sinclair, 35). This desensitization was the result of years of tedious work that removed all hope from the workers and left them isolated. However, it is not only the nature of the work that affected them, but those who had more power than them. The advance of the industrial revolution resulted in businessmen and bosses gaining power simultaneously while workers were becoming circumscribed by their work.

His life is one full of narcissism and abuse. The hunger artist hates what he does, but due to the way he’s lived his life, he is so narcissistic that he can’t stop. Even after the 40 days have ended and the hunger artist is allowed to eat, he doesn’t want to. The narcissism leads to the artist throwing his life away so that he can live in a cage and perform for people that don’t care about him. Even when fasting is no longer as popular as it used to be the artist does not stop, instead he continues fasting.

A few individuals get so used to notices that they no more notice them; others never get used to a scent, and it pesters them ceaselessly. The individuals in Greeley, Colorado are of both gatherings. The scent originates from the slaughterhouses that murder cows, bundle the meat, and cook the remaining parts into canine sustenance. Industrialization has now hit the creation and bundling of meat, so no expertise is needed. Therefore, low wage employments for outsiders furthermore, secondary school dropouts have been made, occupations which bring high rates of damage, make ghettos, and by and large wreck towns in the West.

Jack stood over him. His voice was vicious with humiliation. ‘... “Jack smacked Piggy’s head. Piggy’s glasses flew off and tinkled on the rocks. Piggy cried out in terror’”

Scabby Bill pushed further, waiting to get given the scraps. He was betrayed as a savage by all the foreign people, they mocked him and made fun of him but he still returned. The unwelcoming looks that everyone was giving Scabby Bill after leaving the hut gave him more reason to leave. There were many people and many huts around, on a normal day he could get some scraps from at least 3 different people.

They would have no nails; —they had worn them off pulling hides; their knuckles were swollen so that their fingers spread out like a fan”. These workers pretty much risked their lives each day they showed up to work. This job was more of a torture place rather than a job. Sinclair states, “There were the beef-luggers, who carried two-hundred-pound quarters into the refrigerator-cars; a fearful kind of work, that began at four o’clock in the morning, and that wore out the most powerful men in a few years”.

After Black Tuesday, business took a devastating economic blow which caused them to let go some of their employees. Discrimination played a huge role in the workplace, but African Americans were affected the worst. Most were laid off from their jobs before the whites and were often rejected when they apply for a job because of their race. Although in the shanty towns it is completely different, the people do not look at people 's color because basically everyone is poor.

The “Mondays” source shows a boy and maybe his brother going through trash to find anything that could be useful. One of the boys however is wearing a shirt that says “I Hate Mondays!” which is something many western people say because they have to go back to work or school. While Western people whine about Mondays because they're ungrateful, that could be the only piece of clothing that child has. 2)

One day I was sick and tired of being treated poorly by the bad men. They were always taking me for granted. So I decided to run away from the lab. I went to this restaurant and tried to steal some food but the guy caught me. Instead of calling the police on me, he let me have the food.

That was how I learned to drive, it was a nightmare but luckily I made it out alive. I still don 't think I’m a good driver but I have stopped crashing so much, from the first time I attempted to drive to now. Although one thing never really came my freedom, I was only allowed to drive to school and to the store to run errands for my mom. She put the track my phone on my phone to make sure I went to school and came out when I was supposed to after I got caught leaving early one day.

Another thing is that if they inspect better they can fire the people that are just spitting and dropping the food. The employees would have to pee in the corner of the Room and they would have no paper and no soap to wash their Hands. When I give them the money the food safety inspectors can buy better equipment to search the food better. Child labor is getting your $300,000 because children are going to work instead of school because their families don 't have enough money. Children have to work in dangerous jobs to get money.

Bloom used the fallacy of appeals to emotion on page 160 when he was explaining how at first it was extremely difficult for him to throw food away, yet, at the end of three months of working with produce, it became easier for him to throw the food away. He is appealing to the readers emotions by showing that he felt bad for what he did, but why did he still throw food away if he felt so bad? Why did he not tell the manager that the food should not be thrown away? He is making the reader also feel bad, because he feels bad, which makes the reader forgive Bloom for what he did when at that point in time he should have said that food should not be wasted. Since he did not stand up to his manager about the food waste, he should have included in

In the end there were less than half of the original inmates left, and one of the stand-by inmates had gone on a full blown food strike, and was severely reprimanded for it. The guards posed the other inmates against him and made him look as if he was the bad guy. Guards started to make his cell mates force and mock him in order to get him to eat. This tactic was to no avail, so they ended up putting him “in the hole” for three hours, even though the established limit was only one hour. It is completely understandable why the men that played the inmates were so enraged, there were established rules that were by no means followed throughout the experiment.

It was first day of middle school, my mother used to pick me after school but now wasn 't able to so I had to start riding the bus. I 've never road the bus to my house before so I was scared. Once the bell rang for school to get let out I walked outside along with the other kids to find my bus, 210. I spent about 20 minutes looking for my bus

Self-Preservation “It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the most responsive to the change.” - Charles Darwin. One key point to surviving in the Holocaust was self-preservation. In order to ensure that one would survive one would have to focus on his own being; however, sometimes this mindset was taken too far by Holocaust victims.
