Assumptions

we all make assumptions, sometimes when we less//(least)// expect it and when we don't realize it. we take in thoughts, usually bas e(d) on personal opinion and use it as what belive in. just like gfor example, how we think that oon the 25th of december is christmas and following that, new year, is always on the last day of december the 31st, things like this show how we all except something because that what has been past down to us, or though culture and reilgion,, now think is in some ways, normal. things like this can always be determine wrong, we can take somehting in and ethier tell others opinions of what you except, for instance; if a new student turned up at your school, and something through a type of religion suggested that this person's culture is bad, you may think this person is evil and you would treat them poorly. however this person could be a nice person and if you gave him a chance, you might discover a new truth. Also, when we hear from someone or a source of something, we would usually take that in and alsmost be forced to belive in this, so when that thing was brought up you would think what ever you were told.

Assumptions, can be good and bad showing what your first thoughts are on something, keeping to that opnion untill proven otherwise. i have been in this situation before, in ,many diferent ways, relating all in the same way. For example two days before the arrival of new students in our grade I was told that one of them was a slaggy annoying boy, from his brother. Therefore my frist thoughts or assumptions when this Person arrived in the school was manily what the brother had told me, but I was open and willing to include new people, this then helped me to realize that he was not what I thought but something different. When I realize my mistake I was quite upset and annoyed about making that thought t so fast, before meeting the person. I will always try not to assume again, but can I stop this? It is human for people to assume things make up our own opions and use them for our own potential. We can use our own ways, to make us stop this even know this is hard it is good to know what you are talking about before saying something you don’t always know about. //Good reflection Drew. The typos are somewhat distracting however. Although content, not language, is the focus here, I'd appreciate it if you try to keep the typos to a minimum.//

//I especially liked your example about judging a classmate. False assumptions about others can lead to a great deal of conflict and hurt feelings.//

How can we decide whether or not it was ethnical for Mr. Biriling to fire Eva Smith?

To decide on a case like this is very difficult knowing that Eva is the employee and the Mr. Biriling as the owner, comes under two different roles, how they relate is essential to working life between them. In order to determine if it was ethnical to fire Eva, we must understand how this thought came to be. Therefore the thought of Eva asking for a pay -rise is the answer. Obviously through the opinion of Mr. Briling, Eva was needing a pay - rise in order for something unimportant, we can tell this by the tone and wording giving it the sentence he describes it. In some cases, it is nice and offering to give someone a pay rise, but it can also mean they only ask to get more out of you as a owner of a company, in Mr. Birling's own shoes makes it a difficult choice and making the wrong one could mean that he would have to acquire the needs for others, therefore he fires her. In some cases it could have been wise to say no and ignore the request, but as Mr. Birling states she wasn’t working up to standards and something like this been asked of him, made him make up his mind. Another alternative is to take the chance to se trustworthy in a person by giving what they want and seeing if you get anything back in return, like a working harder and coming earlier as such. Mr.Birling might have taken this into consideration, and decided it to be a waste of time as he thought he knew her well enough to make the right judgment. In conclusion in order to decide if it is ethical or not depends on various things of knowledge and judgment in a person, it falls under trust and respect, what Mr. Birling did I don’t believe to be wrong but hopefully he thought of the other solutions on how to tackle the situation before firing her.
