Contrasting Storyboard
Storyboard Text
- Adkison was not getting the promotion he wanted because he continued to complain about his current task.("One slow midweek night, when I managed to catch up on dishes and clean out the sinks early, I asked Jeff when I could do something different. "Do you know why you're still doing the dishes?" He asked. "Because you keep complaining about it." Nobody likes to work with a complainer, he said.") This shows the relationship between Jeff and Adkison because it shows they weren't really understanding each other at first.
- This shows all of Adkinson's coworkers and his boss hanging out at the pizza place. It's like they feel like they're all family now ("I never considered it at the time, because he seemed to be having as much fun as everyone else, but if I was using my job to create the family I wish I'd had, it was possible that he was, too."
- Before, Adkinson felt like his boss hated him because he had to continously do the dishes at work, but when he learns the truth him and his boss become good friends and his boss pays for a trip to boston so Adkinson can view the city he'll be staying in for college.("Jeff surprised me with an early graduation present: a trip to Boston. He paid for the hotel, the car and the plane tickets.")
- Morrison's relationship with her boss was simply that she was her house cleaner at first.("Little by little, I got better at cleaning Her house—good enough to be given more to do, much more. I was ordered to carry bookcases upstairs and, once, to move a piano from one side of a room to the other. )
- Morrison's boss started to offer to sell her clothes to morrison for a price which we can infer this means they were becoming a little closer.(She began to offer me her clothes, for a price. Impressed by these worn things, which looked simply gorgeous to a little girl who had only two dresses to wear to school, I bought a few.
- Morrison began to realize the work she was doing was starting to get hard for her. She now knew that she wasn't going to be able to keep doing the work her boss gave her because she knew the security of a job should never be placed above the value of home.("Still, I had trouble summoning the courage to discuss or object to the increasing demands She made.")(" I’ve had many kinds of jobs, but since that conversation with my father I have never considered the level of labor to be the measure of myself, and I have never placed the security of a job above the value of home.")
