I thought this was an interesting little find after reading chapter 4.

Anyway,  I suppose it is time again to reflect on what I just read.  Similar to our last reading, I don't have a lot of left over questions--I feel like the knowledge I gained in Massey was enough to cover any questions I have here.

In the way of reflection, however, I really enjoyed reading chapter 3.  I mean, I didn't enjoy the discriminatory practices of the textile industry, but learning more about it was wonderful.  I work in the textile industry and I am not surprised to discover the amount of discrimination that happens in it.  I am always rather "blahed" when I think about how much I earn in comparison to the person who earns X dollars for making the clothes.  I was also led to think about how much each garment must actually be worth.  If it is $150 storeside, and we follow Shipley's text to discover what it was originally worth; its rather depressing.

Excited for class,
Joe
