Working at McDonald’s Amitae Etzioni

1). Main point of the reading

Amitai Etzioni is the author in this reading and the main argument he perpetuate is that

part-time job for young people should be banned and discouraged. In perspective of the bits of

knowledge gave in this article, most adolescents are unreliable with the cash procured from the

part-time work. This is because they simply utilize it to purchase garments or other ostentatious

adornments, for example, telephones (Etzioni).This implies the adolescents do not save any cash

from this sort of work. In the article, it is additionally eminent that the youths who work in the

fast food chains, for example, McDonald's do not have adequate time for studies. This

undermines their improvement from a scholarly point of view. In the long haul, it hampers the

odds of being aggressive in the occupation advertise.

2). Quotation

Amitai Etzioni portrays the American custom as respects the pith of student work. The

article expresses that youngster business was a conventional method for educating "confidence,

hardworking attitudes, and supporting profitability in youngsters". It then keeps on giving an

outline of the deviation from the standard in the present circumstance. In doing as such, the
writer figures out how to take a stand and express what is on his mind to the reader. Moreover,

Etzioni highlights the constructive outcomes of adolescent work through raising cash for school

for poor students (Etzioni).

3). Two words that you’re not familiar with from the text and write word along with its

definition

Two words in the reading that I was not familiar with from the text are self-reliance,

work ethics. Work ethic is defined as a belief in the ethical advantage and significance of work

and its innate capacity to fortify character. On the other hand, self-reliance can be characterized

as having belief and exercising ones power and judgment.

4.) What point about writing did you find useful in this reading

What I found most intriguing in this reading is that the author use of imagination is

estimable. From the onset of reading this article, one may think that it is an advertisement article

of MacDonald products. Nevertheless, reading it one can see inventive the author is in designing

the title statement of the article. Etzioni's feeling of imaginative deduction is exemplary.

Nevertheless, his announcements need believable confirmation. Considering everything, I am

persuaded that part-time jobs are a diversion to education of high school students.
