of incompetence. There are many places where this principle comes to pass‚ in businesses‚ work and school. One place that I saw the Peter Principle put to work was at my own summer job working as a lifeguard at an outdoor pool.

Soto’s personal narrative brings together the creativity and paranoia that is evident in the lives of most children. He uses literary

Summer Reading Description To be completely honest‚ this year was one of the first years that I actually did summer reading.

When I finally started summer reading I decided I would do one

Monday‚ 20 May 2013 Summer Farm - Norman MacCaig Summer Farm Norman MacCaig Summary: The poet lies within the depths of his mind‚ probably in his happy place as his mother’s family lived in the rural area‚ which is reflected in this story. Everything described in the story is part of his mind‚ with perhaps every animal representing a different aspect of his mind. This poet always discusses the concept of having layers and layers of dreams‚ like how the mind is made up of layers and layers.
