Made In China: Chinese Artistic Representations of Capitalist Consumption

In this exhibition, themes of appropriation and authenticity play themselves out in the works of Chinese artists Ai Wei Wei, Tamen, and Liu Bolin. Ai Wei Wei challenges us to reconsider what is authentic and what is consumerism. Liu Bolin’s works represents consumerism in the style of the vacation postcard — except in his photographs, the figure is camouflaged, evocative of the notion of China incorporated into a culture, but not identified. Ta Men’s paintings evoke the original anecdote of authenticity and food in the North American imagination. Chinese art that represents capitalist consumption brings to mind two ...

There is a natural ebb and flow of people. People stand in a slow moving river that flows with time. Like a busy cafeteria, there is an upbeat hustle and bustle here and there, to and fro. This place is not a destination for many them, it is merely a stop-off to somewhere else. Inside a Starbucks coffee outlet are smells of different brews being made for customers. The place has an earthy feel because there are dark, wooded colors. Some people come and order their coffee and then they quickly leave to wherever they are going. For some ...

Justin, a 36-year-old employee, was once a hard-working and sincere employee who spent most of his spare time helping other employees with their work. He was in line for a promotion for his selfless work attitude, and everyone on the shop floor knew about this. However, things changed a few months back and Justin began to abstain from work. When he showed up for work, he was conspicuously late, and the management was getting frustrated by his lackadaisical attitude. I was called into our manager’s cabin and told to deal with Justin suitably. The management wanted me; as their workplace supervisor, to ...

Beverly Tatum’s book ‘why all black students sited together in the cafeteria’

Few people seem to know about racial development and identity including those who have pursued child psychology. Inter-racial interaction has been a major challenge due to lack of psychological understanding amongst the people (Tatum 2). Both white and black adults are hesitant to speak to their children about racism as they fear creating problems that will make children become color-conscious. Tatum observes the lack of awareness and initiates a conversation of people’s perception about racism. Many people tend to think that racism is a forgotten thing. Many assume that racial identity is not a significant issue especially amongst the adolescents. The modern ...

The owner of the ‘Eat Street’ wanted me to help him out in finding out the overall rating of his cafeteria in the eyes of the visiting customers in order to offer better services in the prevailing cut-throat competitive hotel industry.

1. The report: Mr. at your instance, I set out to visit the Eat Street, to have a first-hand information and knowledge about the whole place and its present state of affairs.

The Eat Street which is situated about two-and-half miles away from my school-block bordering the northern part of the university campus is quite a nice place. The path leading to the cafeteria, plush with greenery and flower gardens all around it; is quite a smoothening ambience for the visiting customers which the other cafeterias in the campus lack. I ...

Institutional Affiliation: Grand Valley State University

Introduction: My literature review is on the concept of psychology of making and breaking habits and using incentives to get people to change their habits or start new ones. There has been a lot of study and research in the last decade over this topic. Charles Duhigg wrote one of the most revolutionizing books on this topic. The Power of Habit provided a psychological perspective on habits. The Power of Habit is one of the most powerful books ever written on habit formation and reformation. Several studies have also been undertaken to understand the effects of incentives on habit formation. ...

Men and women tend to behave in different and distinct ways in the process of socialization. There are specific actions that men as well as women either consciously or unconsciously do that depict the gendered roles assigned by the society. The following is a summary of an observation on the gendered roles in both men and women in a cafeteria. The observation lasted for one hour. I observed a total of twenty-two men and eighteen women. Fifteen men and sixteen women came accompanied (one man was accompanied by two women). The rest came unaccompanied. Whereas it is expected that people walk ...

During graduation, I started applying for the job of waiter. It was the first time; I was applying for any job.

However, I prepared my curriculum as according to the job description for the post of waiter provided by the XYZ cafeteria. It emphasized on the requirements of communication skills, organization skills, and positive disposition. Moreover, explained about the primary duties and ...

‘Freshman 15,' an idiom that every college student is familiar with has recently become somewhat of a cliché. This does not however imply that the connotation of the phrase is in any way diminishing. Students are forewarned before starting college of this inevitable problem, and many find it true, although the 15 pounds estimate is somewhat of a stretch. According to the New York Times, the average student adds up to 2.5 and 3.5 pounds during the first year of college . So, the weight gain problem in freshmen is genuine, but the gain isn’t as big as our fears. ...

When it comes to receiving a higher education, some still look down on community colleges, believing they are the lowest of the low. They do not see that community colleges can offer almost everything that a four-year university can offer in the way of education, as well as experience. Community colleges are also a cheaper alternative to four-year schools, given today’s economy. However, some areas that community colleges are lacking have become surprisingly crucial for students’ college experience. Many do not believe cafeterias are necessary on community college campuses; this is a problem. Cafeterias provide a central meeting place that allows students to ...

Question

Do the following actions constitute unfair labor practices during a union organizing campaign? - The charge nurse destroys authorization cards that were lying around at the nursing station. Destroying authorization cards constitutes an unfair labor practice during a union organization campaign. Authorization cards should not be destroyed under any circumstance. They give permission to the right personnel to access the designated areas. Destroying the cards is an unethical practice (Guido, 2010). The authorization cards also help the union members. If they are absent, then any person can access the areas. The consequences of this would be severe because lives ...

EXTRA-ORDINARY TALENT The success of Microsoft could be attributed to its ability to recruit, motivate and retain extra-ordinary talent.

Microsoft always believed in hiring people who were smart, hardworking and knew how to get things done.

Everyone in the world is very familiar with the “word” unemployment and what it means as well as what it can mean for people who get hit with it quite unexpectedly. Coincidentally, people know about the basics of unemployment that is a person who does not have a job or employment of any kind. However, what some people do and do not know is that there are 4 additional forms of unemployment that exists. These 4 are all hard hitting in their own right, and as bad luck would have it, the people they hit are conversely hit even harder; the ...

A local health department epidemiologist investigated an outbreak of gastrointestinal illness thought to be associated with a college cafeteria. There were many complaints about the quality of the cafeteria’s offerings, and it appeared that the student’s worst expectations were confirmed when several students visited the college’s infirmary during the middle of the night and the following day complaining of nausea, diarrhea, fever, vomiting, and cramps. The health department’s investigation revealed that 24 students had eaten in the cafeteria and the development of active symptoms ranged from 24-36 hours. A list of foods eaten, the number of ...

While noticing university students in a cafeteria for about 2 hours, a number of different behaviors were figured out. The cafeteria had a separate corner where the food was being served by four men who were attending to student requirements in a quite fast paced fashion. There were approximately 12-15 benches and tables at the right of this place where the corridor was crowded at several different points during the observation period. At one corner of the corridor, there was a banner reading out ‘November Elections 2013’. It had a table and two chairs in front of it. That particular spot was surrounded by markers, ...

The great restaurants in the world were created with an utmost consideration to the balance of operational concerns, ambiance, technical specifications and thematic ideas. Each of the areas in the restaurant was created with an orchestration of design that promotes the profound customer experience. Furthermore, restaurants tend to create an experience that lasts from the moment the customers entered the façade to the moment they left the place, such experience should linger with the customer and should make them want to dine again soon. In order to create such a place for the customers, designing the restaurant should consider ...

In many campuses around the country, the issue of feeding students remains a highly contested topic due to the many dimensions from which it can be approached. While some argue that campus restaurants are a convenient option, others are of the opinion that services offered by outsiders are the better option since the various competitors do their best in order to attract as many students as possible. The issue that then emerges from this opinion is whether the quality of services is maintained and what quality of food is served bearing in mind that all these entries compete for the sole ...

Feasibility Report for the Establishment of an Internal Cafeteria at McGraw Hill Financial, New York

Purpose: The Establishment of an Internal Cafeteria Problem The staff at the four companies of McGraw-Hill Financial take their meals mostly from fast food restaurants in downtown Manhattan, New York.

Employees have to take an elevator from the office to the ground floor, then a taxi to the restaurant. They then have to queue at the restaurant and wait for food to be prepered, before they can take the trip back. Some ...

Empathy in Communicating with Patients, Family and Staff 2

Scenario One In demonstrating empathy, the most logical way would be to take the patient to a calm, relaxed and private place away from the family. Then in a calm way, ask the patient what they feel about what they think the diagnosis is going to be. Then in a slow but sure way, inform the patient of the diagnosis, the options for treatment available. Finally, give your own personal opinion. During this whole encounter, keep good eye contact to develop a sense of trust and be able to read their emotion, and hold the patients hand or put your arm around ...

Recent studies have established that people do not mind their eating habits. They do not know the dangers either associated with poor eating habits, or are just ignorant to the fact that healthy eating is paramount to healthy societies. However, poor eating habits should not be confused for malnutrition (Krahn and Lengyel, et al. 2011). The major problem associated with poor eating habits is obesity, which exposes people to diseases such as hypertension, coronary artery diseases and diabetes. These are very threatening diseases that have very simple origin-poor eating habits-but also have simple solutions - proper dietary measures.

I chose to write about healthier school lunches in the USA because it is a topic close to my heart. Being a health fanatic, I am intrigued and interested in having schools in the USA serve healthier meals in their cafeterias. It is vital to have students lead healthier lives and eat healthier foods in their school (Hellmich, USA Today). In my opinion, schools currently do not serve healthy meals. There is no variety of vegetables and other healthy meals in school cafeteria, hence the need to advocate for a change in menus and introduction of healthy meals. My ideologies are biased ...

Peanut allergies have become widespread with more and more schoolchildren diagnosed with this life-threatening allergy condition. As the body considers peanuts as a harmful matter, the body's immune system tries to ward off the infection and "overreacts and releases chemicals, including histamine, into [the] blood" (WebMD, 2011). The exact reasons for developing allergy on peanuts are unknown, but this is considered as one of the most severe types of allergies. In the United States, an estimated 1.5 million people have peanut allergy, including the adults. The numbers are increasing and affect not only First World countries, but developing countries as ...

Supply chain is the movement of inputs and outputs from source to the consumer. The APA paper will address the design, benefit, and SCOR model in supply chain management. The paper will also show how I will procure and transport all the equipment and ingredients to the stadium. According to Jacoby (2009) the inputs in a supply chain are any raw material required from the supplier by the consumer. Outputs are the final product provided by a supplier to the consumer. The inputs in my case are burgers and fixings, raw ribs, and brats. The outputs are the cooked brats, ...

There has been a bomb that apparently blew Boston’s subway Southern Station and created chaos, injuries and even deaths to be sustained by people within the area. Gerald Smarten, the CEO of Kaspa Financial Services was therefore currently faced with a dilemma on whether he would concede to the police contact of Paul Schlesinger, the organization’s chief of security, that their office could potentially be used as a triage center and a temporary morgue; or decline. Specifically, the question that needs to be answered is: How should Gerald Smarten balance the needs of Kaspa and the community?

The cafeteria is one of the best places for people who want quick and unspecialized (general) services. Cleanliness is fairly observed both in the outside and inside the cafeteria. On arrival, I did not find any usher to welcome me and show me where to sit. I had to personally identify where I could sit and be served. The cafeteria was half full and all the tables seemed to have been used. I identified one of the fairly clean tables and sat, waiting for a waiter to present me with the list of the available dishes. Within no time, one ...

A. SCREENWRITING

In the writing of this script, I used quite a few influences from other films and genres that I very much enjoy. First and foremost was Ron Howard's A Beautiful Mind, as I wanted to be able to imply that the main character was slowly but surely losing his mind over the course of the short film. Given that I only have three minutes of film in which to accomplish this task, I took the route of keeping it open-ended as to whether or not the events in the film were taking place strictly in Vincent's head, or if it ...

As a student at BPCC, I am grateful for the opportunity to receive a quality education, and the instruction in the classroom has exceeded all of my expectations so far. However, the cafeteria is not sufficient for the needs of the students, which has created a situation that must be rectified immediately.

First of all, there are not enough choices on the menu. If we wanted to be subjected to the same set of unattractive options each day, we would have stayed in high school so that we could endure “Mystery Meat” every Tuesday and mixed vegetables three days a week. There are ...

Habits of International Students

The Eagles Nest is a large cafeteria with multiple computers for student use; there are many dining tables, where you can visit with friends, study, and/or eat. From these tables, you can watch the big screen TV that is mounted in-wall, but there is also a sofa area where you can sit too.

In my research questions, I had two in my mind that formed: what do women and men do when they go to The Eagles Nest, and where do they sit and with whom. I have chosen this topic because I think it is interesting for people to know ...

The cafeteria services (K-12) of the Plante and Moran company have been under debate for some good time. The outsourcing of the cafeteria or its internal upgrade depends on several issues. Some of these issues are so urgent and require quick and permanent solutions. They include: the control of health care costs; employee’s health that has been threatened by lack of exercise, smoking, stress, and obesity; and the lack of the company’s ability to meet its health care costs. All these factors put the company under serious search for solutions.

Over the last few years, the cafeteria ...

The Columbine High School experienced a horrific turn of events on the 20th of April 1999.
