a sample paragarph from Essay #3

If you look at the changes American labor goes through, you notice that America goes from being farmers to industrial people; to the present as salesmen and retail. Wal-Mart is one of the most popular retail jobs in America. As one of America’s most popular store, Wal-Mart gets away with a lot. Such as paying low wages, over working its employees, gender discrimination. Karen Olsson article Up Against Wal-Mart said “The retailer also faces a sex-discrimination lawsuit that accuses it of wrongly denying promotions and equal ay to 700,000 women. And across the country, workers have launched a massive drive to organize a union at Wal-mart, demanding better wages and working conditions.” Workers at Wal-mart have to worry about their wages, but now women workers have to worry about their wages and being treated and paid equal to male employees. It’s not a fair system because; women are no different than male workers. They are doing the same amount of work, for the same company, same hours or perhaps even more. Still women are being mistreated.

  1. Great start - I look forward to reading more.

    One little thing: use a semicolon (;) only for two complete sentences - here, a comma is just fine.
