Coffee Scheduling

Four years ago, the first iPhone was released and it still remains as a popular aspect of our technological culture today. Though it is in its fourth iteration with more to come, the iPhone continues to be one of the best selling smartphones. In a fast paced world with new technology constantly being released, the iPhone is still remarkable although some might argue that it is outdated and overhyped. This device is more than just a phone to consumers, but another way to connect with the world. There’s just something about this device that has Americans camping outside Apple stores and enduring long lines to get their hands on one. Although the iPhone may seem like just another smartphone, it is a cultural phenomenon because of the way it

What is a childhood memento that most people keep? Among the many toys or gifts, security blankets are one of the most common objects that are stored when people grow out of them. The one thing that was given to me when I was young still holds dear to me: my baby blanket. My blanket has been with me throughout my whole life. Although it seems like an ordinary object, it came from an important figure in my life, and having it with me constantly caused me to almost lose it, but luckily I was able to find it, and I still have it to this day.

Objects can prove to be the cause of some of the most impactful features or events in someone’s life. “Once he finished work on the Prospector and we struck it rich, he’d start work on our Glass Castle.” (Walls 25). The Prospector was a symbol of aspiration, she wanted to have a more exciting and fulfilling life. Although it also represents lies and distrustfulness because her father never actually worked on the Prospector. Instead, he went out and got drunk. The Glass Castle is quite impactful in Jeannette’s life, it gave her hope for a better life. However it’s not just that, it’s confidence in her father. That he will provide for her and create a good life for her, despite the drinking and other horrible habits he has developed. Jeannette

Another artifact I have that is important to me is a blanket that my Grammy made for me when I was born, that I still have. The ‘blankie’ was green, yellow, and purple with square patches that had little figures on them like teddy bears, and dolls and other toys. It is meaningful to me because, it is something that I have had my entire life and nothing could replace it. Another reason it is important, is because my Grammy made it and I don’t see her often because she lives in Florida so, I keep it around to remind me of her. In conclusion, this ‘blankie’ is really important to me, so that is why I have kept it around for so long.

Like most my age, I am always equipped with a smart phone. Many would deem it necessary in this day and age. Some people get them as young as 10 years old. I only carry one per my parent's request. Not to say that I don’t enjoy the perks of having it with me: access to any answer for any question that might be asked, the capability to talk to my family and friends at any given moment throughout the day, and plenty of applications to screw around with if I find myself with extra time. It weighs almost nothing, so light that at any given moment I will panic because I worry I lost it. It holds a different kind of weight though. It is heavy in the moments that it is “lost”, when there is a fear that it is not with me,

When we were a child we all had something to be attached to rather it was a toy or our parents. Where does this feeling come from or how do we become attached to these certain things? According to Merriam Webster dictionary the meaning of attachment is “the state of being personally attached or the physical connection by which one thing is attached to another” (Webster, 1828). Attachment is learned when we are infants and taught by our caregivers, they can affect social development and how we treat each gender, attachment can affect our relationships as adults, and attachment can help protect our memories.

Lastly, my cellphone is instrumentally valuable to me because not only is it just a chunk of metal, but because my cellphone gives me the ability to get in contact with the people that I need to communicate with through texting and calling, I can use my cell phone to search the internet, if I need a calculator it’s right there, etc. All of the people and things that I find instrumentally valuable are more valuable to me and my life because they are a means to something else (Vaughn 6).

Characterization and symbolism are prominent aspects of Walker’s story “Everyday Use”. Walker brilliantly writes about the use of everyday items to portray symbolism encountered between members of the Johnson family. During the Story each character perceives and approaches each element differently. Walker highlights each element in the story as each character expresses their different views of items showing that people or objects are more important than decoration or style.

It may seem like everyone and their uncle's mother has an iPhone or iPad, but for the most part, they are objects of luxury. It's easy to forget the powerful technology that fits inside these little boxes and we often treat it like something of lesser value. Because of that, it's common to lose track of them. It's ok to be in denial of your shortcomings. A new device will help you get back on track in five simple steps.

Agencies struggle with accessibility to ensure assistance to individual’s in need. Although, often the need doesn’t match the options given. Client’s availability and agencies work hours can conflict making it difficult for those that need assistance or help. In these cases, shouldn’t client still get the help they need? I would propose that the agency offer after hour appointment times for those who have conflicting schedules. Meeting a client or patient where they are and helping them with what they need is the main objective of any help profession.

Richard Rogers’ song “Favorite Things” talks about how the narrator’s favorite things make them feel better when times aren’t the best. People often have a memento from childhood that they keep throughout their life, such as a stuffed animal or a tea set. These possessions represent a memory or event from one’s life -whether it be from early on or from later in life- which in turn remind them of the feelings from the times they received it. These tokens from their early life often mean the world to them, and this is an accurate description of how I feel about my “Blankie.” My blanket is a source of comfort, every small imperfection has a memory behind it, and these impressions make the blanket unique to my life and my experiences. While most of the details that reside on my blanket are small and often remain unnoticed, each one makes it more important to me.

The argument states that the consumption of coffee and cola is directly correlated with the age of consumers: the older they are, the less cola and the more coffee they drink. Following this claim, the argument concludes that as the aging population will lead to an increase in the demand of coffee, and a decrease in the demand of cola, investments should be made into Early Bird Coffee instead of Cola Loca. Stated this way, the argument reveals examples of poor reasoning, and fails to mention several key factors on which it could be evaluated.

Genuine Thermos Brand has been satisfying their customers for more than 110 years across America with their vacuum insulating products. The company stood the test of time in their brand because the quality of their products paled in comparison with their competitors.
