Example from classmate for reference but do not copy,

Part 1:

According to Chernotsky and Hobbs, transnational corporations, also known as TNCs, are “companies that operate on a global scale with integrated operations across regions and countries” (Chernotsky & Hobbs, 2018, p. 168). The benefits of transnational corporations are compared to many countries, some TNCs have more assets. TNCs give a head start for how economic activity is today. TNC “investment helps countries build infrastructure and enhance their capability of economic growth” (Chernotsky & Hobbs, 2018, p. 171). There are many people that don’t agree with TNCs and are worried about what is behind the TNCs motives. The working conditions that TNCs implement is not ethically moral, some would compare these factories to sweatshops. These workplaces are unsafe environments for workers. I believe that in order for TNCs to become more socially responsible, they need to protect their workers. For example, H&M “has been the subject of criticism for continuing safety issues and depressed wages across its factory network in South Asia” (Chernotsky & Hobbs, 2018, p. 172). TNCs need to become more responsible for their employees and have more care and respect for them. It’s not that hard to have a cleaner and safer work environment. As well as paying their workers more money. The reason why TNCs have these factories in third-world countries is that labor is cheap. It wouldn’t hurt these companies to pay money to help benefit their workers.

Part 2:

The topic that I found the most interesting and unique was the accepted and familiar point of view. I liked how Riccardi compared how British people stand in a line compared to Norwegians. He stated that British people would tend to stay in the same order, especially if another cash register opened up (Riccardi, 2014, 5:35-6:10). The last few people of the original line would go towards the new cash register but would stay in the same formation they were in in the original line. I thought this way of forming lines was “accepted and familiar.” From what I have noticed when shopping at grocery stores in the United States, we tend to follow the same “rule” as people in the UK. While in Norway, when a cash register opens up, every person goes for it. It is the belief of first come, first served. Riccardi found out that Norwegians are about equality, they don’t bother with titles and tend to dress casually (Riccardi, 2014, 7:06-7:16). This can create some confusion when a person is in a different country with a different accepted and familiar point of view. While standing in line seems pretty universal, it is interesting to see what is accepted and familiar in different countries.

Part 3:

The fact that I found most interesting and impressive was that people like Margaret Sanger and Emma Goldman had to fight for women to have access to birth control (Green, 2013, 6:34-6:40). According to Green, in response to “how women should be able to enjoy sex without having children,” men replied with “women can enjoy sex?” (Green, 2013, 6:40-6:43). It was quite infuriating that men believe that they can have a say of what a woman does to her body. It is also infuriating that Sanger and Goldman were constantly ridiculed and even arrested for trying to provide birth control for women.

After learning about which countries are the worst for women, I do believe that South Africa would be the most difficult country to live in. Due to their very high rates of rape and sexual assault, being a woman would be scary (Kasparian & Uygur, 2012, 2:28-2:37). My heart goes out to all the women in South Africa that have to deal with this terror constantly. Being a woman is already difficult since we aren’t always considered to be equal, but South African women have to fear for their life on top of that.

Part 1:

The assignment is to write 5 pages of well developed personal narrative essay using the attached rough draft and thesis statement. The draft and the thesis are previously written by me and you can find them attached below. please use the same attached draft I did before and develop it and improve it using Essay guideline instructions.

Essay Guidelines:

Option A: You probably value something or regret something about your younger years. Using narrative techniques, recount the event/the incident indicating the significance of the event and how it shaped your identity.

Your essay should be 5 pages long. You must format your essay according to standard MLA guidelines: 12 font, Times New Roman, double spaced

Your essay must include standard, academic formatting, including title, thesis idea, well-developed paragraphs, effective transitions, and, last but not least, an introduction and conclusion. you should carefully review the strategies for writing a Narrative essay. The personal narrative must include background information, details, action and tension that not only tell a story, but make a point about a lesson learned or personal experience. The narrative covers a short amount of time, so do not tell the whole story: zoom in on the experience that highlights the lesson learned. Review sample essays and model the writer’s techniques.

Part II: Developing a Working Thesis

Review your pre-writing to see what general or controlling ideas emerged which you might develop into the thesis statement of your essay. For example, an essay about your trip to Italy might not just be about the country. Instead, the trip to Italy might have been a backdrop for an awakening you experienced, an appreciation of history, a cultural realization.

This is the pre- write essay (ROUGH DRAFT)

When I was seven years old, I made a dumb mistake that resulted in an annoying injury. I was at my friend’s house, playing on their swing set. I was hanging from the swing set by my arms when I lost my grip and fell to the ground. I instantly heard a crunch and knew something was not right. I wasn’t sure what had happened, but I felt a pain in my right arm, and I began to yell for my friends. They saw what had happened and ran to get the parents. I stood up just fine and walked over to them, holding my arm. We didn’t know if it was broken or not, and my parents decided to take me home. We had come over to our neighbor’s house in a red wagon, so I had to ride all the way back home in it. Everyone watched me from the backyard as we headed home.

We later I decided to go to the doctor, and I had broken my arm. My arm was put into a bright green cast and we headed home. Throughout the summer, my cast became covered in signatures from various friends and family. I remember all the kids thought my cast was so cool. I was just upset because I couldn’t swim or enjoy the rest of the summer. I remember my friends saying they wanted a cast and that I was so lucky to have one. I thought I was very unlucky to have the cast and just wanted to be like everyone else. Eventually, I got my cast off and felt very relieved. I could finally go back to swimming and doing fun things that everyone else did.

I learned from this experience early on that people often want what they can’t have. I was sad to be in my cast while all my friends thought it was awesome. I always regretted falling down and breaking my arm, but everyone else thought it was a cool or funny story. This is a simple example of a common phenomenon. Wanting another’s circumstances can be seen in many aspects of life, and I experienced this at an early age.

Part two

This is the thesis;- How we view our own experiences and how others view them can be very different.
