One character trait is frustration. The text shows how frustration is used: "See that roof you got over your head at night? Let me tell you something about that roof. It’s been over ten years since that roof was last tarred"(Wilson 45). He seems mad at Cory because he says, "Dad, why don't you?" Bye, a TV costs only 200 dollars. Troy says, "With that 200 dollars, I can get my roof fixed."

I picked this because it tells the story of Troy at the bar cheating on his wife, Rose, who has been with him all his life. Troy decides to give it all away because he wants to be a different man for her instead of Rose. He feels different from her because he can be himself and not have to care about money, and he does not have to be mean.

I pick the song 9 to 5 because it talks about some working hard but not getting what they think they should get in the movie Troy works hard and he has to give his money to his wife and pay bills and sometimes give it to his son but he works so hard that he should beable to get more money for him.
