Rhetorical Devices In The Company Man

My mom is the biggest supporter that I have, and Procter and Gamble (P&G) demonstrates this perfectly in their commercial. This commercial was featured during the 2016 Rio Olympics for a universal audience to see. Procter and Gamble put together a tear-jerking, heart warming, incredibly relatable commercial to promote their products and what they stand for as a company. They appeal to everyone who had a mom who supported them in some way and especially target moms who care for their children and want what is best for them. The usage of ethos, logos, pathos, and kairos play a very important role in ensuring their commercial is effective. Rhetorical fallacies are also important to P&G for making a persuasive and effective argument, although that argument may be false. The usage of

After depositing her gear into one of the cage’s lockers, she ascended into the rafters with Vic who was seen grinning from ear to ear. He invited himself to watch Owen Grady demonstrate the contributive abilities of his velociraptors. Omorose remembered working with one pack but only briefly. Vic had them put down for ripping the stomach from one of his subordinates. Truthfully, she was hurt by it; she and Barry developed a bond with them. Although Barry trained them, she worked diligently to see that they were protected and grew fostered an almost matronly bond with them.

Moreover, Phil’s youngest son said about his father, “My father and I only board here.”. This further conveys the amount of time Phil spent at the office rather than at home; his own family didn’t even consider him in permanent residence at his own home. Other than anecdotes, Goodman additionally uses varying syntax to illustrate her annoyance at Phil’s choice of lifestyle. When describing Phil’s daily routine, her sentences are short, definitive, showing her distaste for Phil. “To Phil, it was work. He always ate egg salad sandwiches at his desk….On Saturdays, Phil wore a sports jacket to the office instead of a suit, because it was the weekend.” Goodman contrastingly uses lengthy, detailed sentences and phrases when describing Phil’s family, to convey her pity for them and show that Phil should have been spending more time at home rather than at work. “The youngest is twenty, a boy, a high school graduate who has spent the last couple of years, like a lot of his friends, doing enough odd jobs to stay in grass and food. He was the one who tried to grab at his father, and tried to mean enough to him to keep the man at home.” Although Goodman describes Phil’s family with sympathy and care, she does use sarcasm as a means to criticize the obituary’s description of the family. “She would be ‘well taken care of’.’”, Goodman quotes from the obituary, in reference to Phil’s wife, and she says “His ‘dearly beloved’ eldest of the ‘dearly beloved’

Michael Gerard Bauer’s moving novel The Running Man is set in Ashgrove, Brisbane during the early 2000’s and tells the story of the unlikely friendship that is established between Tom Leyton, an enigmatic recluse, and his young neighbour Joseph Davidson. Several characters in the story exemplify that our initial perception of someone and what we see and hear about them is in no way an accurate reflection of who they truly are and all there is to see and know about them. As a child, Joseph saw Simon Jamieson as the mysterious ‘Running Man’ despite not being aware of the tragic past that caused him to be this way. Likewise, Mrs Mossop is perceived by the Davidsons to be somewhat of sticky-beak until she reveals the reason for her excessive caution.

Joey Franklin makes masterful use of rhetoric in his essay “Working at Wendy’s” to construct an entertaining and compelling argument in favor of recognizing that the workers of the service industry are not just undistinguished drones, but rather complicated people, each with their own desires and stories. To this end, the author utilizes the effective rhetorical device of pathos, logos, and ethos. Franklin demonstrates an excellent use of imagery that serves as a conduit for empathy, which is vital for the use of pathos, the emotional appeal. In reference to logos, the appeal to logic, he paints the picture of a hard-working father that needs to provide for his family. This is a clear representation of common logic and ties into ethos, which is the rhetorical appeal to authority and ethics, in the sense that many people can relate to caring about and working to support family. For ethos, he establishes himself as your everyday working man — part of the working class. This shows that he’s clearly apt for speaking of the position he’s in, and allows the audience to relate to him through pathos.

A library can be a repository of knowledge or a squirrel’s worst nightmare. With this in mind an angle of vision is being created. An angle of vision is not simply written, it is carefully and deliberately constructed through the proper use of five rhetorical strategies. Word Choice, Sentence Structure, Overt Statements, Figurative Language, and Selection and Omission of Details are the strategies used by writers to create the angle of vision. To understand these strategies I have written two paragraphs that are similar in description yet carry vastly different angles of vision.

“We are part of this universe; we are in this universe, but perhaps more important than both of those facts, is that the universe is in us.” This quote was stated by Neil deGrasse Tyson, author of Coming to our Senses. Coming to our Senses was published in 2005. The main idea of Coming to our Sense is that our senses are limited and that we need technology to enhance it to better our world. Tyson is effective in delivering the main idea by using rhetorical devices found throughout his essay.

In the writing “The Company Man”, the author, Ellen Goodman, gives us a brief, yet, fulfilling summery of a big company man’s attributes, life, and death. In this work, the author uses referential writing as her primary purpose of writing, while she also uses narration as her primary pattern for the analysis of the writing. She begins, opening up with “He worked himself to death, finally and precisely, at 3:00 AM Sunday Morning.” in order to grab our attention. She then goes into the different aspects of his life, starting with his devotion to his company and some of the different characteristics about him. Next, she lists, in chronological order, the different people in his family, and analyzes what he meant to each person listed. Finally, in closing, the author repeats some of her work, reflecting her writing in her introduction, closing with more elements about him and his work ethic, but also reminding us of how he sacrificed work for family. She then finishes her writing with “So when he finally worked himself to death, at precisely 3:00 AM Sunday morning, no one was really surprised”

The insurance company Geico, which stands for Government Employees Insurance Company, uses many rhetorical strategies in their film advertisements to successfully attract viewers and convey positive messages about their company.

Their use of rhetorical devices in the commercials helps to send the message that Geico relieves stress in tense situations and is the logical choice of insurance.

Managers should employ workers with the view that they should be trained to perform tasks they were not capable of doing at the time of employment. Jobs should be enriched progressively to allow factors that motivate be satisfied. This idea of job deign is crucial to the successful use of Herzberg’s ideas. Salaries must be able to do, not what they are capable of doing before training. In the own words, ‘if you pay peanuts, you get monkeys’
