Southern California's growth began in the early twenty century because of the oil, automobile, and motion picture industry. Oil was already discovered in California but it's biggest boom didn't happen until the 1890s when it was discovered in Los Angeles. There were so much oil that oil wells began to pop up in peoples' backyards and the barrels were full of oil. For example, Edward Doheny and Charles Canfield's oil wells were filling up 700,000 barrels for the year of 1895 (pg. 292; p. 7). Then, Henry Ford's Model-T arrived in San Francisco and it jump-started the automobile revolution in the state. As a result, the Automobile Club of Southern California and California State Automobile Association were formed to build better roads. And finally,
Founded in 1979 under the name AutoShack, Autozone has grown to become the leading retailer of automotive replacement parts and accessories in the United States, employing nearly 65,000 employees with over 4,800 locations in North America. After changing their name to Autozone in 1987, the company was able to implement the first electronic auto-parts catalogue in the retail industry, helping to establish their dominant position in the market. Because the firm was able to record steady growth for years, it was taken public in 1991, allowing it to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the ticker symbol AZO. Along with heavy investments in their retail footprint, Autozone had also developed a refined hub-and-feeder inventory system, keeping in-store inventory levels low while reducing the chance of stock outages.

I wanted to write about Autozone because I love cars. Ever since I was small, I used to watch the Cars, the movie from Disney, and it made me interested in cars. One day, when I was around 6, my step-dad’s cad broke down and we had to go to AutoZone to get the car repaired. I was intrigued by the person who worked there because there were alot of parts for a car and tools to fix it. Ever since, I wanted to build or even fix a car at Autozone-if I can anyways.

Every business in the trucking industry will rely at some point in its lifespan on financing in one form or another. This is true for small start up trucking enterprises just beginning to build a reputation, to large nationwide fleet’s that are always looking for new opportunities for growth. The true question becomes which type of financing is right for your company at your state of development. Typically, trucking company owners will consider bank loans as a first means of securing funding during a period of slow growth or a cash flow emergency. However, because the trucking industry is considered fickle by most institutions, many banks are hesitant to offer loans or lines of credit at all.
In automotive we work on teachers cars or anyone that needs to get their car fixed. It is really fun fixing cars and hanging out in the shop. It can be very dangerous as well because there is many ways that you can get injured.

“I understand what Bert’s going through. It’s the loneliest feeling in the world - to find yourself standing up when everybody else is sitting down...Walking down an empty street, listening to the sound of your own footsteps.”.I can get whats happening to Bert. You feel more lonely than anyone else in the world. When you see yourself fighting and standing up and then see that nobody else is with you. Seeing yourself all alone with only the noise of your own footsteps to comfort you.Some hyperbole used in the quote we're “Walking down an empty street, listening to the sound of your own footsteps”. This is not to be taken literally as he is not actually walking down an empty street. Drummond says this near the end of Act I on page 51-52. He
