The story “Unemployed and Working” from Simon Wykoff shows his conventional thinking by writing to influence readers to reimagine the stereotype of the “lazy bum” commonly given to homeless people. The author explains how homeless people work to accomplish the most important job to humans, surviving, which can be just as difficult as a conventional job. Wykoff gives his own personal testimony about the life of his homeless father and the daily struggles and process he went through. He first explains his father’s decision of not using services for homeless people, and how he coped with that while living on the streets. He then goes through each task done by his father in a day, starting with saying how there was often a good chance that something of his was stolen while he was asleep and elaborating on how his father would buy himself food if he had made enough money, but if he had not then he would have to check dumpsters to satisfy his hunger.

The main argument made by Jessica Shortall in her talk “The US needs paid family leave -- for the sake of its future” is that newborns are important to the economy. More Specifically, Shortall argues that women should have longer paid period of maternity, therefore they can properly take care of the future generation. Shortall says “…but that stance ignores a fundamental truth, which is that our procreation on a national scale is not optional.

One type of caller that I feel completely comfortable with taking a call from would be someone who is upset. I feel as though the majority of people calling in an emergency would be upset with the situation they are in. However, an obstacle that could be present when dealing with an upset caller could be that they would be harder to understand and may be too overwhelmed with emotion to explain the situation clearly.
