PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Davao City slaughterhouse is located at Ma-a, Davao City. The operations are limited to the night shift. The delivery of animals will start at 1:00 to 4:30 in the afternoon. The whole morning will be utilized for cleaning the area. The 2nd shift will start at 9:00 in the evening up to 5:30 in the morning.

It employs 48 workers of which 25 are regulars and 23 are contractual. This contractual will do the maintenance and the manual slaughtering of animals.

Currently the number of hogs, cattles and other animals slaughtered are as follows

Hogs 200 to 250 heads
Cattle 30 to 40 heads
Chicken none ( chicken slaughterhouse is out of order)
Goat 20 to 25 heads

The number of heads slaughtered everyday does not level of with the number of kilos meat sold in the public market. In short there are hogs and cattle slaughtered privately.

The following are the charges per head for the service rendered:

Hogs P91.11 per head
Cattle P152 per head
Goat P40.00 per head

There are two stockyards presently existing in the city slaughterhouse. One is for the hogs and the other is for the large cattle. Three operational ponds are present in the slaughterhouse, the aerobic pond, anaerobic pond, and the facultative pond. And sludge drying bed.

    At the beginning of the chapter, Eric meets Hank a local rancher, who shows him around the subdivisions of Colorado Spring that is taking over the ranch land. “The industrialization of cattle-raising and meatpacking over the past two decades has completely altered how beef is produced- and the towns that produce it. Responding to the demands of the fast food and supermarket chains, the meatpacking giants have cut costs by cutting wages. They have turned one of the nation's best manufacturing jobs into one of the lowest paying, created by a migrant industrial workforce of poor immigrants, tolerated high injury rates, and spawned rural ghettos in the American heartland” (Schlosser 149). This quote explains in meat processing companies, which…

    Factories were located in urban areas and as a result the cities grew. To this new way of life there was both an upside and a downside. The industry improved, ideas were easily shared and products were made better and cheaper. On the other hand, the cities were a trap for disease, crime, and pollution. Large amounts of immigrants entered the country and they often lived in tenements. Life was not simple and several reporters, the Muckrakers, exposed injustices. The most known would be Upton Sinclair, his revelations of the meat industry inspired the passing of the Pure Food and Drug Act.…

    In Eric Schlosser's "The Most Dangerous Job" Is about the working conditions in slaughterhouses the employees go through on a daily bases. Schlosser writes his story with how cows are slaughtered for packing, then you realize he is really making a point about the hazardous conditions employees are forced to work in. According to Schlosser " The "IBP revolution" has been directly responsible for many of the hazards that meatpacking workers are now forced with" (658). To keep up with line getting faster due to high profits some floor managers are providing "crank" or "meth" for free to keep their employees going faster to help get through the shift.…

    Slaughter House

    Slaughter-House-Five written by Kurt Vonnegut is a novel about a character named Billy Pilgrim, who was a Prisoner of War in WWII who fought during the bombing of Dresden in Germany. Since the war Billy has never been the same returning home. He constantly travels back in time to the memories of being in Dresden and how horrible the war was. Billy has insane time travel stories throughout the book making readers believe he is crazy. Kurt Vonnegut himself was a Prisoner of War during the bombing of Dresden and he too suffered greatly during his time. Throughout the novel the readers can make a relation to whether or not this book was based on Vonnegut’s experience in Dresden and using Billy as a character to portray his experiences. Vonnegut is the narrator of the story and tells the story as first person and third person perspectives. Vonnegut using his own experiences and stories in first person perspective in a few chapters makes us believe this book is about him. Many critics argue about this topic using evidence in the book and comparing it to his life, but we do not have a straight forward answer. His role as a narrator plays a major role because he tells the story of the memories he remembers from the bombing. It can paint a picture in the reader’s minds how insane and dreadful the bombing was. This adds mystery and questions while reading the novel and continue to flood questions whether or not Vonnegut was using Billy to explain his story. In my opinion having Vonnegut as the narrator to this novel makes me believe this book was about his life story in Dresden, but using Billy as a character portraying him. Also, it’s hard to use yourself explaining in a book all the hardships and troubles about being in war. Vonnegut has to remember all the dreadful memories that took place being in war which is why he uses Billy to explain his story. There is nothing beautiful or glorious about a massacre as Vonnegut…

    Why does the process of the factory affect the efficiency of the workers? The slaughtering, processing, and packaging of meat done by the immigrant workers at meat industries has caused high incidence of accidents, injuries and illnesses. In the article, by Barbara,Young,“Zoned for Efficiency” it connects to the points in Fast Food Nation by Eric Schlosser about how the workers need to stay working at a fast pace in order for the meat packing industry to make more money. If the workers are on track then the process of the meatpacking industry is doing excellent.The way meatpacking plants operate it leads to mistreatment of the predominantly immigrant workers who already are not paid enough for their labor.…
