...they lived in. Enlightenment thinkers, like John Locke and Voltaire, begin inspiring the citizens of France to rebel against their government if they felt like their rights were being limited or they did not feel protected. The two reasons for the French Revolution were: the rebellion of the third estate and France’s horrible leaders. The French Revolution was caused because the third estate rebelled against their government. The third estate consisted of the bourgeoisie, traders, laborers, apprentices, servants, and poor peasants which made up about 97 percent of the population. The third estate rebelled against their government because they were not receiving fair rights. They had no say in their government; they had to pay half of their income for taxes and titles, and didn’t own as much land as they should have since they had the biggest population. Whereas...

...CMM 310: Introduction to Public Relations Fall 2014 Reflection Paper # 3 September 30, 2014 Burger King's Horrible, Creepy Ad Campaign Isn't Working DEREK THOMPSONJUN 22 2009, 2:30 PM ET 0 inShare More To the surprise of nobody, Burger King's horrible, creepy advertisement campaign is not working, and the company finds itself falling further behind McDonald's according to just-released figures. This strikes a huge blow to the idea that what Americans want from their fast food joint is a Bobblehead King doll who sneaks into your bed, raps about square butts, and terrorizes you from outside your bedroom window. Yes, those were advertisements for hamburgers. In other words, thank you America, for compelling our elites to put the strategic back into strategic advertising. Gawker has been on this story for a while, and they point out that the advertisement firm in charge of creeping out the country was the award-winning team at Crispin Porter Bogusky. Unfortunately for BK and Crispin, they don't award marketshare at advertisement gatherings and in this most crucial category, the company is not keeping track: Between 2003 -- the year before Burger King hired Crispin as agency of record -- and 2008, Burger King's share of the burger-chain market fell to 14.2% from 15.6%, according to Technomic, while McDonald's share rose to 46.8% from 43.6%. McDonald's has posted average annual sales growth of 6.3% compared with BK's 2.9% gain during that period. McDonald's is...

The things he experienced are unbelievable as he describes the violence, starvation, torture, and humiliation that he endured.

...Cause of Nothing Turning Out Good What causes kids to start doing drugs? Why do something so horrible? A lot of things probably lead to kids doing drugs, such as a bad divorce of their parents, hanging out with a bad group of friends, or some other type of horrible cause that happens within their life. Most kids start off doing drugs because of the friends they’re hanging out with such as if you’re hanging out with a friend and they’re like, “Hey man just try this it won’t hurt you”, so you feel pressured into doing those drugs. You think it makes you look cool or makes you fit in with the crowd when really you look like an idiot and should be saying no to the drugs. Another reason why kids start drugs is because the parents go through a hard divorce and the kids are thrown from parent to parent and the parents don’t care what the kid does anymore because in reality they don’t know what their kids doing or where their kid is. When they should be watching every move they make, then later on down the road they want to blame the kid or themselves which takes a bigger toll on everyone around them and themselves. Other causes of kids doing drugs are things such as depression, insecurity, boredom, lack of intelligence, what they feel like and many more reasons. They feel depressed and they think doing drugs will make them feel better and take away the pain, when in reality when the high wears off all there problems come back. They just need to face them instead of hiding from them...

...REFLECTION PAPER: “Horrible Bosses” One of the worst scenarios that an employee may dream of is having a difficult boss to work under. Bosses that are too strict, give too much work, insensitive or impatient are some of the characteristics that employees don’t like. Let’s face it, I don’t think anyone would like bosses or superiors like that. The film “Horrible Bosses” shows three friends – Nick Hendricks, Dale Arbus and Kurt Buckman struggle working under their own “horrible” bosses. Nick works under David Harken who reprimands Nick and saying that Nick isn’t fit yet for a promotion so he awards it on himself. On the other hand, Dale works as an assistant for Dr. Julia Harris who continues to sexually harass Dale despite of him being engaged. Julia even threatens to show Stacy (Dale’s fiancé) some intimate pictures of her and Dale if he wouldn’t have sex with her. Lastly, since Kurt’s original boss died, he now works for his boss’ son whose name is Bobby that is a drug addict and doesn’t really care about the company at all. With these circumstances, they’ve decided to kill their respective bosses. Over the course of studying Human Resource Management (HRM), I have realized that Human Resource, in its simplest form, is about improving an employee’s work environment in order for the organization to maximize its employee’s skills and potential. The film “Horrible Bosses” illustrated how an employee’s work environment – in this case, their respective employers - can affect...
