... Heaven forbid that they run out of the form that I need! Once I have my paper treasures in hand, I depart to complete the second leg of my journey. At home, I dust off the file cabinet and empty the drawers that contain my important personal papers that will be needed to file the income tax report. The extensive important paper inventory consists of medical receipts, records of interest paid, and literally any other kind of record that may or may not be a factor in the tax filing. In the past, I have thrown away receipts only to find that the receipts were vital in completing the tax report. I now own a spacious four-drawer filing cabinet for important papers. My ...

... when intellectually and socially impaired children grow up to be intellectually and socially impaired adults"(Collins 59). The need for some sort of assistance for many children became obvious to me on a volunteer project I did in high school. The summer after my junior year I took a trip to San Antonio with about twenty other students. We were divided between two different projects, and I went to work in a summer day-care program in an underprivileged area. The day-care was for children aged infant to eighteen, and on an average day about 175 children would come through. They only had two full time workers, and relied on volunteer groups that came through a ...

Consumption was additionally stimulated by an expansion of credit and by people’s willingness to go into debt to buy what they wanted. Similar developments occurred in Britain, Italy, and especially West Germany (11). As a result, Europeans began to spend their money on such “luxurie ...

If workers in the factory have no heat, no lunch breaks or they are not allowed to speak, (which was the case in many sweatshops for immigrants and children in the 1920's through 1940's), then the labor unions will obviously want something done. These differences are usually settled fairly quickly, and a new contract featuring these agreements will be realized . Most contracts are in operation for about 3 to 5 years.
