Overworked, Questions to start you thinking
1. Lamberth supports the position, of people being overworked, and leaving no time for family or other responsibilities.
2. Overworked people face, being sleep deprived, hard to keep marriages and families, negative attitudes, and stress.
3. Responsibilities for employers are, hiring temp employees for time off, programs for life-related and family situations, and working only 40 hours a week.
4. The authors uses evidence by supporting the main ideas with evidence other authors have wrote. This is convincing to me because I can agree already with the support but have experienced it all first hand.
5. Lamberth does consider views from people who like or want to work overtime and have no family or are all about the money and just have no choice. I feel the lack of this would affect someone with this point of view because they wouldn’t agree with anything the author writes.
6. The exclamation points throughout give the essay a strong point of view and makes the reader understand how strongly the author feels and I think they all should stay.
7. I feel the organization of this essay flows very well
