Tipping Nachum Sicherman Analysis

The general information given by Katherine Lam and Natalie O’Neille in their work, “Shake Shack location in NYC nixes human servers, goes cashless,” is that a burger chain in NYC has recently announced that its restaurants will start going cashless.

However, Mintz credits both Italy and India with the delivery aspect of takeout, throwing in attention keeping stories such as royalty asking for a pizza and lunchboxes going between restaurants, houses, and businesses (Mintz). Moving towards North America, Mintz adds interesting tidbits of information such as, “After the Civil War, an informal economy sprang up around train stops of Black women selling prepared food....” (Mintz). Subsequently, readers are taken to the start of developing technology that can be assimilated to their own experiences, such as Domino’s, “introduced Dom, a voice-operated ordering feature that let you order by speaking, oddly replicating the telephone experience that technology was replacing” (Mintz). Allthese details keep readers interest, allowing Mintz to move forward into his persuasion

According to 48 Liberal Lies about American History, Larry Schweikart argues that the founding fathers of the United States truly did want religion to be incorporated into government. James Madison, one of America 's founding fathers, first considered the relationship between religion and government when he saw a group of Baptists in a local jail. He determined that it was necessary for all citizens to have an equal opportunity to practice their own religion, whether their beliefs align with the government or not. Madison eventually paired with Thomas Jefferson, and together their support for religious freedom changed legislation.

The main argument of this article is to show the reader the stuggle of working at a restaurant owned by a large corporation. When many people go to restaurants, they don't normally think about the servers or think about how dificult their lives really were. All of Barbara Ehrenreich's coworkers made very low income, with the richest one making only $10 an hour, and many of them live in motels and trailers. Not only do they live in horrible conditions, but their managers treat them horribly; they will get yelled at for simply sitting down or eating a snack away from all the customers. I agree with the authors stance; while I have never personally working in the restaurant, oth my mother and brother work in the room service section of a fancy

A rhetorical analysis of: “For many restaurant workers, fair conditions not on menu”, an editorial published in February, 2014 by The Boston Globe, reveals the author’s use of classic rhetorical appeals to be heavily supported with facts, including focused logos arguments. “For many restaurant workers, fair conditions not on menu” is a Boston Globe editorial published in February 2014 by author/editor Kathleen Kingsbury. Kingsbury is a Pulitzer prize winning author and is currently the deputy managing editor (The Boston Globe). “For many restaurant workers, fair conditions not on menu” aims to inform the reader of the hardships that minimum wage restaurant workers in the United States have to face and steps that could be taken to solve these issues. The article focuses in on the wage gap,

In this article, entitled “Hold The Tip”, Leonid Bershidsky states” Countries where tips are small are richer in culinary delights.” According to Bershidsky, tipping is the American tradition, and the tip of twenty percent is a social norm. Bershidsky gave us an example when a restaurant owner decided to eliminate tipping, and this decision goes against American tradition. The U.S. has an unusual system that allows restaurant to pay waiters only $ 2.13 per hour since they make the difference between the federal minimum wage and median hourly pay in tips. In addition, Bershidsky mentioned about the hourly rate that a cook receives, and about the fact that a waiter is paid better than a person who interact with food.

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.

The authors arguable point goes on to talk about the problem with tipping and how the “less discretion you have in the matter, the more useless it is as an economic incentive” (Lewis 21). Lewis’ third point was not a hundred percent convincing “The Case Against Tipping” was a great essay; however, it lacked statistics. If the author gave more statistical facts the essay would in the end be more logical and the author would have better luck pulling in the readers. The examples located in this essay were organized quite well, into a chronological order; therefore, made the entire essay more interesting. Michael included both pathos and ethos into this essay which brought life and significance to each example he presented.

The travel market had expanded from the male elite to include male and female travellers from the “middling sort” and as result, a profusion of travel related letters were written to private correspondents. A large number of these letters were collected, collated and entered onto a the Grand Tour Database (www.grandtour.amdigital.co.uk.) together with published collations and travel guides that formed a genre of factual and entertaining travelogues and guides related guides which were widely circulated for those about to travel and for those interested in, but unable to afford foreign travel. Both printed and personal correspondence allowed its reader to extend their understanding of places, cultures and social structures. (Goodrich, A. Chapter 17pp24-25)

Mirabelli uses examples from his own experiences, as well as his research to show that this claim is not true. Through his writing, he displays the communication skills and knowledge it takes to be a waiter. Mirabelli is also able to portray

Oddly, in our society, we have associated low-quality workers with low-quality food? In his article “Working at Wendy’s” Joey Franklin paves the road towards a new perspective about those who come to work at Wendy’s. Instead of explicit points and unshakable statistics, and powerful calls to action, Franklin alternatively leads gently us through a process of revelation. Drawing from his own experiences working at

In Margaret Visser’s essay, “The Rituals of Fast Food”, she explains the reason why customers enjoy going to fast food restaurants and how it adapt to customer’s needs. Some examples of the most loyal fast-food customers are people seeking convenience, travelers, and people who are drug addicts. First, most loyal customers are people seeking convenience. The reason why fast food restaurants are convenient because longer hours of being open, the prices are good , etc. As Visser said in her essay, “Convenient, innocent simplicity is what the technology, the ruthless politics, and the elaborate organization serve to the customer” (131).

O’Brien describes his experience at the Tip Top Lodge as one that resolved an immense inner conflict he faced. When O’Brien received his draft card in the mail to fight in Vietnam, he immediately had to face the fact that he had been “drafted to fight a war that [he] hated” (O’Brien 38). In the face of danger and what he deemed as “moral confusion,” O’Brien suddenly decided that fleeing to Canada was the only way to avoid fighting in Vietnam. While driving north, O’Brien stopped at a fishing resort called the Tip Top Lodge and met Elroy Berdahl. While he refrained from asking obvious questions during O’Brien’s six-day-stay, Berdahl presumably understood O’Brien’s situation.

“Fast food restaurants have us hooked on to their tasty food. You See a lot of people buying fast food because how good it tastes. Well let me tell you it is not good for your health.
