The relationship between health and the use of occupations is explored and examples from the novel are used throughout to support the link between health and wellbeing, and occupation. This paper also explores the different sociocultural views of “occupation” and how these relate to the characters in the novel.

...that arise is, how can the company be so successful? Throughout the paper we will talk about the company’s internal and external structure. The opportunities the company took advantage of and as well as the weaknesses they encounter. Wal-Mart was founded by Sam Walton in 1962. Sam Walton was a former J.C Penney employee who had a vision to sell products at the lowest price possible. He opened up his small store in Bentonville Arkansas in 1962 under the name “Walton’s Five and Dime”, later that year he opened the first store under the Wal-Mart brand. Within five years of business, Wal-Mart expanded outside of its home state to Missouri and Oklahoma. Sales sky rocketed and owner Sam didn’t hesitate to expand even further. By its twenty fifth anniversary there were 1,198 stores. In 2012, “Wal-Mart and the Wal-Mart Foundation gave more than $1 billion in cash and in-kind contributions around the world. This includes $1 billion in cash and in-kind gifts in the United States and $82.2 million in cash and in-kind gifts in international markets. In addition, Wal-Mart, Sam’s Club and Logistics associates volunteered more than 2.2 million hours, generating $18 million to U.S. nonprofits” (Wal-Mart 2012). To give you an idea of what Wal-Mart is all about I plan on breaking it down to a smaller business and not focusing on the business as a whole, but the internal work of it all. Wal-Mart maybe too large and worldwide to talk about in one paper, so I plan to make it smaller and...

It is said that back in the time of the Greeks they would make these sweet beads and top them off with honey and bring them to the temple and offer them to the gods. In an article that I found this is what they understand “Cakes were initially called by the name ‘plakous’ by the Greeks, which is a similar word to ‘flat.’ These were a combination of nuts and honey. Besides, they also made a cake called "satura," which was a flat heavy cake. It is also believed that the Greeks offered round shaped cake to the Goddess of Moon called Artemis[1].” In another article it talks about the Romans ad how they brought cakes into play, “During Roman times, 'cakes' were served at special birthdays. However, these cakes did not resemble contemporary cakes in the least. They were simply flat rounds made with flour containing nuts, leavened with yeast, and sweetened with honey. In early Europe, the words for cake and bread were virtually...

For example Jody has Janie put her hair up in rags because he is insecure about his old age and attacks Janie about her looks. He also doesn’t allow her to do certain things because it is unfitting for a mayor's wife “The years took all the fight out of Janie’s face. For a while she thought it was gone from her soul.” (77). After many years with Jody, Janie completely loses herself, but one day at the store Janie maliciously pokes at Jody’s insecurities. That argument between the two symbolizes Janie asserting her strength and power. When Jody dies, the first thing she does it take her hair out of the rags. This symbolizes her freedom and how she regains her power, because when her hair was up it showed us how trapped she was, and now that it is down, she is in full control. Although Janie was pressured by the townspeople to mourn Jody’s death more, she pays...

As she walks through the town, her old neighbors were sitting on their porches talking about how she had left town in nice clothing with a younger man and came back muddy and in overalls. When she walks by the neighbors, she doesn’t stop to chat with them which only causes them to talk about her more. The chapter then tells the Janie was in love with a man named Tea Cake which the women tell that she was way too old for him. Even though the ladies were jealous of Janie being with a younger man, they tried to label her as whorish, in which Janie’s best friend defended her saying she’s never done anything to her anyone and then later took her to dinner. As Janie and her friend talk, we find out that they have been friends for a long while and they trust each other. Pheoby was afraid that Tea Cake has taken all of Janie’s money and ran off with a younger woman but Janie makes it clear that he was very good to her and tell Pheoby that he was ‘gone’ but we aren’t sure exactly what that means.

He’s everything a girl could want – tall, dark, handsome, not-misogynistic – so different than her old, fat, dominating husbands on every point. They joke around for the whole evening and we learn that this man has a high opinion of women, saying they can do the same things as men – play checkers, walk far, ride a train. Eventually we learn the stranger’s name is Vergible Woods, but he goes by Tea Cake. He ends up helping her close up the store and walks her home. Though Janie is cautious, she finds herself very comfortable around him, as if she has known him her whole life. Janie worries about the kind of man Tea Cake is. She thinks he’s too young for her, probably just wants to take her money, and other thoughts like that. Janie is determined not to get sucked into another marriage without love so she determines to treat Tea Cake coldly if he ever comes back. He comes back after a week, and Janie can’t keep from being friendly to him. Janie and Tea Cake end up joking around again. They play checkers, and while the store’s other customers are surprised, they don’t seem to disapprove.
