One thing that I observed was that the people who looked at their phones while waiting in line had a tendency to be more reserved when ordering at a register. This could be because they are socially awkward, avoiding eye contact or attempting to look busy or important (Front stage). On the other hand I noticed that the people who were not on their phone while waiting tended to be more social when interaction would be attempted by an employee. I also noticed a lot of front stage, and off stage behavior amongst the workers. The front stage was mostly when a guest was in front of us so we had to uphold a persona and the off stage behavior was when we were in the back just chatting amongst ourselves. the guest as well went through these stages as when they were ordering they would typically be front stage and when they were at their tables with their family/friends they would be off stage.]]> 2018-10-17 02:24:55 UTC https://padlet.com/kenzieivey/kbsmzg4itrna/wish/293666701 kenzieivey https://padlet.com/kenzieivey/kbsmzg4itrna/wish/313669523 This picture (from Getty Images) displays an African American Male drinking from a fountain labeled "Colored" next to a nicer fountain labeled "White". this is an indication of the African Americans inferior Social Status to that of a white person as indicated by the less sufficient fountain from which he is drinking. Segregating African Americans and Anglo Saxons places the function of racism into context through this picture. the photo is also an indicator of the African males social rank, less than that of his white counter part.]]> 2018-12-12 00:19:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kenzieivey/kbsmzg4itrna/wish/313669523 kenzieivey https://padlet.com/kenzieivey/kbsmzg4itrna/wish/313669615 for this padlet I did Carly are Jepson's song "Call Me Maybe". I chose this song because it has a lot of sociological meanings inside of it. for example, the whole song really reinforces gender stereotypes and heterosexual norms. Carl Rae emphasizes societies stereotype of girls falling "head over heels" when she sings that she would trade her soul for a wish and pennies and dimes for a kiss. Carly Rae takes on the social role as the female who has the stereotypical "pick me" attitude when she gives him her number and says "call me maybe". also, their is. bit of cultural beliefs in the first two line of the songs when she sang "I threw a wish in the well, don't ask me ill never tell" which demonstrates the belief that if you throw a coin down a well and make a wish as its fallen it will come true. she further embodies this when she says that she saw him as the penny was falling indicating that he is what she was wishing for and it has now come true. ]]> 2018-12-12 00:19:59 UTC https://padlet.com/kenzieivey/kbsmzg4itrna/wish/313669615 kenzieivey https://padlet.com/kenzieivey/kbsmzg4itrna/wish/313669675 for my comparison I chose China and the US. it might look as though the United States has a higher rate of almost anything than china until its realized that because of chinas massive population their statistics will be deflated or inflated on certain things. however, when put into perspective with one another some of the results are shocking.
for example, the divorce rate in china is only 0.79 per 1,000 marriages and the United States is 4.95 per 1,000. but when these are translated in to actual numbers chinas divorces hover around 2.39 million and the United States sits at 877,000. now if the last two were compared it would be plausible to think that the US has more happy marriages than china until you realize that 2 million is a minuscule fraction of chinas 1 billion plus people. this compare to the 877,000 of  325.7 million of the US population.
also, when put into terms of thousands it is kind of shocking that chinas abortion rate is 16 percent more than that of the United States. china sits in at 24.2 abortions per 1000 and the United States comes in at 20.8 per 1000.]]> 2018-12-12 00:20:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kenzieivey/kbsmzg4itrna/wish/313669675
