Rhetorical Analysis Of Why Tipping Is Wrong By Jayaraman

The article “Life on the Global Assembly Line” by Barbara Ehrenreich and Annette Fuentes talks about how women’s are being exploited in the Third World countries. It discusses that an American worker earns a large sum of money as compared to a Third World worker, doing to the same job. Women mostly occupy the boring and painstaking jobs in the factory. Ehrenreich explains that the working conditions for the factories are very poor; therefore twenty girls live together in one room at the some places. Work places are not just congested, but are also littered with hazards.

The haphazard “pointing of the finger”, which is often found in rhetorical arguments, perpetuates the grand scheme of poor versus wealthy, powerless versus powerful, and minimum wage employee versus big bad restaurant executive. Although this is presented in a professional manner, and with suppressed indignation towards restaurant chains, the basic ideology held by the author is implanted in the minds of the readers. The author successfully does exactly what any written rhetorical piece sets out to do, convince others of an opinion through persuasive

Rape on the Night Shift is a documentary about the sexual assaults that some of the janitors suffer while working at night. This documentary reveals the injustice that these workers have to go through because most of them are undocumented and they don’t know their rights. The experiences of woman in this documentary is correlated with the feminist theory, the idea of seeing women unequal to men and the idea of the men having the power to control women. Indeed, the documentary let us see the gender inequality, exploitation, and the de-valuing of woman’s work. We see the feminist theory in the documentary when the managers or supervisors sexually abuse of their workers.

In this paragraph I will be talking about Marilyn Frye’s article called “Sexism” and I will discuss whether I agree with her argument or not. Firstly, Frye gives an argument for sexism saying “sexism is not always apparent either to those who suffer from it or to those who inflict it upon others. It is imperceptibility of sexism that enables it to flourish in our society” (Frye, p.844). Marilyn Frye is trying to say that sexism is usually ignored in the real world to those who get hurt from it or to the ones who causes it. In my opinion, I will say that I do agree with Marilyn Frye’s stand on this subject for a couple of reasons.

Service Not Included ­ But Arguments Are In “Service not Included: Restaurant industry serves up injustice to workers”, the author, Kathleen Kingsbury uses rhetorical techniques to inform her audience of the hardships faced by restaurant workers at a time when “Time­pressed Americans eat out for at least five meals a week, and the average household spent $2,620 on food away from home…”. The author uses the three different classes of rhetorical arguments to persuade persuades her audience to support securing and increasing the hourly wage of workers in the restaurant industry, and uses her understanding The Boston Globe’s target audience to craft a convincing article.

In the United States the custom of paying gratuity has become a costly social norm. The expectation of leaving a substantial tip for average service should be challenged. Tipping is not only unnecessary, but also causes social issues. The many reasons that tipping should be abolished include public opinion, tipping messes with the overall pay of workers, other countries views and psychological problems pertaining to the subject. Public opinion has showed that if you stray away from leaving a tip, your actions can be seen as rude or disrespectful.

These rhetorical appeals enhanced the arguments effectiveness. Although this essay, “The Case Against Tipping”, was all opinion based with no logical statistics, Michael Lewis still created a well written an arguable topic that in truth does get people thinking. If everyone sits down and actually thinks about the harm that comes with tipping, then the society we live in, where tips are a necessity, people wouldn’t be so depended on it and the society might be a better

On January 17th, 2001, Eric Schlosser presented all sides of the all- American meal in an investigative novel that examines the local and global influences of the United States fast food industry. Read the section thoroughly. Then in a well- developed essay, analyze the rhetorical strategies Schlosser uses to convey his message. As American citizens we are all guaranteed the same rights regardless of race, religion, sex, etc.

During this week, we have covered numerous topics, none more prominent than the oppression of women. Everyone had different opinions, allowing me to take into account different views on the issue. In one of the texts we examined, “Oppression”, Marilyn Frye, a philosopher, debates the subjugation of women. She states the cultural customs that causes oppression of women. I do agree with her view that women are oppressed, but I do not agree that it is just women.

This goes along with the gender inequality within the household. They brought that attitude into the workforce which helped transition the gender hierarchy that existed in the household, into the factories and other production facilities. Ideas of women’s placement in society were underpinned by legal, political, and social practices which subordinated women. They were seen as less important. One circumstance that made women seem less powerful was how poorly they were paid compared to men.

He has no doubt that debauchery is carried on and it is impossible for girls to remain modest. The girls have to work with men away from every one, there is every opportunity for depravity. Girls who are in pits, mix with males and hear indecent language. Girls are not trained properly in household duties and they are so overworked they lost any disposition to learn such things. (Ashly Commission) Rev. Robern Willan states the morals of the working class are in an appalling state.

To stop gender inequality we have to treat women and men equally. If we continue to make believe about the society’s expectations towards ourselves, then we will be locked in the doll's house with the ghosts of Torvald and Nora hanging

Black women are treated less than because of their ascribed traits, their gender and race, and are often dehumanized and belittled throughout the movie. They are treated like slaves and are seen as easily disposable. There are several moments throughout the film that show the racial, gender, and class inequalities. These moments also show exploitation and opportunity hoarding. The Help also explains historical context of the inequality that occurred during that time period.

Dancing at Lughnasa is a play created by Brian Friel in 1990. The story takes place in the last days of summer in 1936 in a rural environment of the fictional town of Ballybeg, Donegal, in Ireland. We are in the midst of a traditional Catholic family in a female environment, composed of a brother, Jack, who has been a missionary in Africa and a five unmarried sisters, Kate, Agnes, Rose, Maggie and Chris, who has a son, Michael, the responsible for narrating the story from his point of view. The fact that one of the sisters has a child being a single woman reveals that at the same time, the family is traditional and also modern. This factor is very important; it is very contradictory to the historical context of the time.

Women have less to say about what they need or want but they have to pay much and also to face the results when the men around them botch. It is dreary to see these frail willed men delineated in the novel who failed to stay up for women, who recognize an overall population where women are set backs of their
