John Simpson Character Analysis
One way John showed a development of maturity was when he got a steady job or in his words a ‘real’ job. He had been struggling financially for months and finally gave into his fate of entering the politics of jobs. During this transition in his life he realized he liked having a real job “No one stood over me with a whip” (Robison 179). He discovered that in a real job you get more freedom and it’s usually less stressful than being an engineer for a punk band. His first ‘real’ job gave him the push he needed to start thinking more maturely. He will constantly be getting a more mature outlook on things and be able to add to his career experiences.

    Krakauer wrote that Chris McCandless was, "green, and he overestimated his resilience, but was sufficiently skilled to last for sixteen weeks on a little more than his wits and ten pounds of rice"(Krakauer 182). In this quote it seems that Krakauer thought that McCandless was well equipped with his skills, so that made moderately prepared to survive in any situation. I feel that McCandless was rather prepared, yet again he never could have been fully prepared for the unexpected. My opinion is that McCandless was vaguely aware of the struggles that he would encounter in the Alaskan wilderness such as his epiphany that "happiness is only real when shared" was realized when his body was dying of starvation. I believed that he found what he was…
