Nicki Kavanagh's E-Hermit Essay

1804 Words8 Pages

Over the past ten years, technology and the workplace have changed drastically and we have grown from pens and papers to computers and email. We are now in the 21st century and the workforce is charging forward at full force. The only problem with this is that since we have been charging forward at full force for so long, we have failed to realize that we are neglecting the needs of the employees who are making this charge possible. We have failed to realize that with all the technology surrounding us in the workplace that organizations and their management have taken the aspect of human communication away from its employees by isolating them from each other and creating “E-Hermits”. Without flowing communication, we would not be able to keep charging forward and the goals of these organizations could not be reached. How employees are treated and how they perceive their organization worth and the extent to which their individual contributions are looked upon as both valuable and encouraged is all established with communication. Organizations not only need to improve communication within the workplace, but also need to improve workplace ethics and the workplace environment in order to meet the needs of their employees so that they can keep the charge going.

  • Beside Oneself Judith Butler Analysis

    896 Words  | 4 Pages

    In Judith Butler’s essay,” Beside Oneself: On the Limits of Sexual Autonomy,” she attempts to clarify what is considered human and what defines a human, and how it applies to the different gender roles and human rights. The difficulty that this essay presents, however, is its ambiguity – the fact that she fails to clearly identify what a human is and sort of challenges the readers to look within themselves to search for their own interpretation of what they believe gives them their own moral rights and human integrity. Human integrity is a word that can easily be defined when searched for in any dictionary database. “LawCookies.com” defines it as, “the human right to live without being physically harmed or harassed by others.

  • Dee's Struggle For Identity In Everyday Use By Alice Walker

    271 Words  | 2 Pages

    Alice Walker’s “Everyday Use” illustrates Dee’s struggle for identity by placing her quest for a new identity against her family’s desire for maintaining culture and heritage. In the beginning, the narrator, who is the mother of Dee, mentions some details about Dee; how she “...wanted nice things… She was determined to stare down any disaster in her efforts… At sixteen, she had a style of her own: and (she) knew what style was.” Providing evidence to the thesis, she was obviously trying exceptionally hard to find for herself a sense of identity. She wanted items her family couldn’t afford, so she worked hard to gain these, and she found a sense of identity from them, but it also pushed her farther away from her family.

  • The Prototype For Anne Shirley Essay

    1011 Words  | 5 Pages

    The prototype for Anne Shirley is somewhat drawn from Montgomery’s 1905 novel titled, By the Grace of Sarah Maud which was published in the Modern Women magazine. Notably, Sarah Maud, who was freckled and is described as having a red hair, was high- spirited, thus giving the impression that Anne Shirley was slowly taking into shape at that time. As can be seen, Montgomery had given her own name to Sarah Maud, making their initials to closely resemble one another. Montgomery was L.M.M., while Sarah Maud was S.M.M. Consequently, as Gammel had explained, the character of Anne Shirley is a combination of several Annes. Anne was romantic and dreamy, the same way Evelyn Nesbit was.
