He gets hired to be a Scrivener and is found to be the most hardworking person no matter the time of day. However, his complexity is baffling because one day, he refuses to examine and write a simple document. In some terms, Bartleby might deal with depression; one moment, he is completely okay and then all of a sudden, he finds himself in a state of mind where he is unmotivated to perform tasks that he would on a daily basis. High levels of depression occur everywhere, sometimes we might not realize how an individuals’ actions or how the outcome of a certain situation can take effect on our well-being.…

Paul Clermont, Sarah Odell and Christina Healy were second-year hotel and restaurant management degree students and they were looking over the business and travel news and lamenting the sluggish job outlook in their chosen field. They had always joked about starting a business together, but this time Paul was serious. With few prospects in the job advertisements, the three friends were worried that travel and entertainment wouldn’t pick up by the time they graduated. They’d begun their job searches in the autumn but weren’t interested in the available positions. So, like many other young people, they considered heading out on their own and becoming entrepreneurs.…
