or so. Being a student‚ this subject is important to me because if I do find a job on the job market‚ it will quite likely be a minimum wage job that will have to pay not only for my school but also my living expenses.

Nobody is perfect‚ but I ’m so close that it scares myself. Exact thing applies to Shakespeare ’s Iago‚ the almost too perfect villain in the play Othello. Different from the other typical trite villains‚ Iago has more depth in him other than being plain pure evil. Consumed with envy and plots Iago deceives and kills those who trust him‚ using the mask of "honest". As an amoral villain‚ it is not that Iago pushes aside his conscience to commit these acts‚ but that he lacks a conscience to begin with

In “The Pay is Too Damn Low”‚ by James Surowiecki‚ he makes a claim saying that the minimum wage is too low regarding low wage jobs like McDonald’s. In response to this article‚ I completely agree with the author‚ these types of jobs are not only occupied by teenagers‚ but also by adults that need jobs. The author made me feel that minimum wage jobs were not made for adults that need to provide for their families‚ unfortunately though‚ these are the types of jobs that are always easily available

While vacationing with my family on our annual trip I found myself overindulging in my vices. I ate too much‚ smoked too much and drank more than I would care to admit.

I’m not saying to end all tests just to get rid of some of them so we don’t take as many. Getting rid of
