“First Job”
In her essay “First Job”, Iliana Roman, a mother and hair salon owner. Who became pregnant in high school and dropped out. She held several jobs, while studying to attain her GED, taking business classes at a community college. Iliana used her education to transform into a successful salon owner. Roman describes her traumatic testimony on how determined she was to make her life successful after she realized the mistake that she made earlier on in her life.
Roman accomplishment, even in times of fate, settles off for her any time throughout life. She determines to instill in her mind what she wants, why she wants it, and not letting anybody or anything get in her way. I have seen first-hand how the idea that hard work pays off is not a one dimensional mindset, that it can be applied to an aspects of life and yield success. “My children motivate me. You can always do better in life, and I am one to do better, better, better” (815).
Roman describe how learning can come with written and unwritten rules in life and on the job, including how to deal with obstacles, tough bosses, how to consider people, how to treat people, and harassment. Work ethic is a good trait to have when trying make it in the real world, like Roman did. In my life I try to keep a good work ethic and stay well motivated. But for me, it is easy to get motivated. But once I am motivation to do something, it clicks in and work ethic just comes normal. “I think if you set your mind to learn something you`ll learn it; there’s no stopping you” (815).
Our family is the most important people in our lives. What do you think? I think generally we sometimes don’t appreciate the kind of love and support we get from family members. Roman looked up to her father as an inspirational and wanted her children to look up to her as the same. Roman finally concluded cosmetology school, she felt in her heart that she would be successful in her own
