One portion where Rose compared different views was when he stated that: “The big difference between the psychologist’s laboratory and the workplace is that in the former the problems are isolated and in the latter they are embedded in the real-time flow of work with all its messiness and social complexity”. Where does Rose mention differently views and what is his reason for bring them up?
Therefore, I agree with his contentions that blue-collar workers apply different levels and expansiveness of skills in their respective work settings depending on their experiences and how they perceive tasks could be improved in the undertaking of their expected roles and responsibilities.ģ. Rose’s arguments and the manner by which these are presented make them convincing through the use of rhetorical appeals which include logical and emotional appeals. Discuss how convincing his argument is and whether you agree or disagree with it and why? Mike Rose asserts that people in blue-collar jobs, deemed to be repetitive, routinary, and do not require high-level of literacy, actually require as much application of diverse skills including cognitive, verbal, mathematical, visual representations and illustrations, and analytical skills as people in white-collar jobs apply.Ģ. What salient points does he make to develop his position? “If we believe everyday work to be mindless, then that will affect the work we create in the future.” (pg.1.“Our culture separates the body from the mind, s that, for example, we assume that use of a tool does not involve abstraction.” (pg.“Coming off the line as he did, he had a perspective of workers’ needs and management’s demands, and this led him to think of ways to improve efficiency on the line while relieving some of the stress on the assemblers.” (pg.“Intelligence is closely associated with formal education-the type of schooling a person has, how much and how long-and most people seem to move comfortably from that notion to a belief that work requiring less schooling requires less intelligence.” (pg.“Like anyone who is effective at physical work, my mother learned to work smart, as she put it, to make every move count.” (pg.Logos: This article was FILLED with various different statements and anecdotes that appealed to my logic and made me think. “And then, of course, there were the customers who entered the restaurant with all sorts of needs, from physiological ones, including the emotions that accompany hunger, to a sometimes complicated desire for human contact.” (pg.“Was the manager in a good mood? Did the cook wake up on the wrong side of the bed?” (pg.Pathos: There were some things in her that appealed to my emotions. He got to witness and experience his mom and her “waiting brilliance” up close and personal. This article kind of goes against everything I was taught as a child and young adult.Įthos: The story about his mother working at the restaurant is what made him and this article credible. It was interesting because we are currently living in a society where they make you think that in order to gain knowledge, you need education. This was a particularly interesting article.
