The movie I chose to write a paper on is Saving Private Ryan. The movie takes place during the Invasion of Normady in World War II. The actor Tom Hanks plays the role as Captain John Miller, who leads his team of soldiers behind enemy lines in search of Private James Ryan, with hopes of finding him and getting him home safely. The military realized three of four brothers had been confirmed dead and immediately put a team together with hopes of finding Private Ryan so his mother didn’t have to grieve the death of all four of her sons. Throughout the courageous journey of finding the Private, the team of soldiers overcome and conquer many dangerous acts of war that leads to the death of several of them including Captain John Miller.

Being so dedicated to his work, Captain Millers credibility doesn’t go unnoticed. His superiors know from his past assignments they can trust and rely on him to complete the mission.
In my current job, my values reflect in my work ethics I provide at work. Being a manager of a used car dealership, treating customers with respect is crucial. In many circumstances, salesman have one chance at earning respect from a potential customer. When going out to greet customers, my character and demeanor is instantly being judged. The first impression is the most important of all to possibly gaining a new customer. If I were to greet someone without respect and come off as rude or arrogant, a customer may gather a bad impression of me and possibly take their business
