Gunner Pass Driving School
A good location for any business is vital. You might need to be right
in the middle of the city, or you could be better off in an out of
town Retail Park or Industrial Estate. To decide what location is
best, businesses should think about:
* Will we attract passing trade
* Will we make regular trips to the bank or a postal depot
* Will there be public transport links nearby
Whatever option a business goes for, there will be disadvantages. An
office in a rural setting might be relaxing, but could be awkward for
staff or suppliers making deliveries. Being right in the middle of a
city can be very convenient, but also more expensive.
Adrian has no workplace for Gunner Pass other than when he is out in
his car, and when he is at home. At home he works within his office
with his computer and has a telephone for communications. A map to
show the location of Gunner Pass is shown below. As of yet he has no
other offices or locations for his business. If he decided to rent an
office this would be a disadvantage because he would have to pay costs
to use the premises. The local areas in which Adrian provides his
service are expanding. New homes are being built, this means more
shops will be needed to supply everyone’s needs. The houses being
built are all in excess of £100k plus. This means Daventry is
attracting wealthy families. Adrian can benefit from this, because
there will be more customers in the area needing driving lessons. This
could be a disadvantage for Adrian as other driving schools may be set
up because of the rise of population in the area. Adrian would now
have competition. Adrian needs to be reasonably near his customers.
The location of his customers isn’t a big factor as it is with other
businesses. This is because he drives to his customer’s house when
they are having a lesson. His customers cannot be too far away, as
Adrian will have to pay more on petrol to go to them. Adrian’s car
runs on Diesel the reasons for this are:
• It’s cheap
• More Mileage
• Less pollution
Buying your own premises: advantages and disadvantages
If Adrian feels it neccassery he may decide to buy or rent an office
and premesis. This will be a new location for Gunner Pass. The new
location would need to be in the local area. He is likely only to
consider this if he has plans to expand. Buying a property gives you
the freedom to use it as you wish - subject to planning regulations or
My car slows as it approaches a stoplight. I take this opportunity to allow my mind to become engulfed with my surroundings: the bright fierce red of the traffic light, the brilliant blue sky with its specs clouds, and the mass of hurried people. The four corners of the intersection are filled with people who are preoccupied with their fast-paced lives to notice the little things, such as animals and anxious cars awaiting the traffic light. My thoughts vigorously put all of the information that my mind has gathered from the intersection to order.

Quickly, I make my way to the waiting Blackhawk helicopter. Even with my full combat load strapped to my back the rotor wash threatens to push me over. My face is pelted with grass and other debris; motivation and determination makes me run harder. As I reach the Blackhawk the Black-shirt directs me to one of four repel lines anchored to the aircraft. I wrap the line through my d-ring and climb into the cabin. I wait, crouched in the doorway, for my three other comrades to finish their hookup. The Black-shirt completes his check of our hookups and gives the pilot the thumbs-up. Abruptly, the helicopter lifts into the air leaving my stomach somewhere below.
Dramatic irony is “a relationship of contrast between a character's limited understanding of his or her situation in some particular moment of the unfolding action and what the audience, at the same instant, understands the character's situation actually to be” (). In order for dramatic irony to occur, some amount of consciousness must be concurrently aware from both perspectives. Night encompasses the feelings the Jewish community had with the author's use of dramatic irony. Despite the inhumane conditions that persisted throughout the Holocaust, the Jewish society often applicated a sense of hopefulness
...octor is an obstetrician but cannot save the life of the child. In the three central texts discussed heretofore it has become evident to the reader that irony is used to aid in the representation of an unfortunate event. The study of more short stories could come to show how irony can be used to demonstrate many events that end with different outcomes, whether they are positive or negative as in this case.
Exclaiming, “Oh great” after finding out you failed an exam, a traffic cop who gets his license suspended for unpaid parking tickets, the urge you have to warn a character who walks into an abandoned warehouse where most likely a serial killer is waiting: these are all examples of one of the most used and most effective literary tools—irony. There are many different scenarios that can be categorized as ironic, the defining factor being the inclusion of “discrepancy or incongruity” (Arp 359). These many different situations and experiences can be classified as three types of irony: verbal, situational, or dramatic.
You may think today “Hey, I totally wonder sometimes what the Middle Ages Churches and Gothic Medieval Cathedrals where like. What were they important for? Were they Churches like the ones today? How long did it take to build? “ Well that may be SOME of the questions you may have but you may have more. In this essay you're about to find out why the Medieval Gothic Cathedrals were so important for, and how much rule and and wide range of power they had over the people in the Middle Ages, and last but NOT least, the creative sublime (I’ll delete this comment later on if you see this but “sublime” is my own words not internet word) of the Gothic style windows of the Cathedral. First, the one I like most, the Gothic stain glass windows of the Gothic Cathedral. Stained glass is argued to an opinion or belief, one of the most important aspects of Gothic cathedrals. As its popularity rose, mainly during the mid 12th century, the increased existence of stained glass presented large changes to the way the general residents were learning about the religion. The windows became illuminated optic (“Optic” is my own wording) talk of biblical stories, which may have had an even greater impact than the spoken word of the priest. In this research paper, I will be primarily focusing on the stained glass windows and architectural styles employed in five Gothic buildings in France, each having their own unique and worthy attention and characteristics to the development of stained glass windows. By looking at the architectural improvements shown in these structures built during the Gothic time frame, we are able to see the impact all over the place to itch for increase...
In the story “The Interlopers”, written by Saki, there are multiple different examples of irony. The story follows a constant battle between two families over a worthless piece of land. The main protagonists, Ulrich Von Gradwitz and Georg Znaeym, are seen feuding over said piece of land. Their families have been fighting like this for generations. In the end, they truce, and become friends. Thus, their feud is settled. But they're trapped by a fallen tree and presumably killed by a pack of wolves, right after they’d settled their battle and became friends. In this essay, I will be discussing three different examples of irony in this story.
Thirty one percent of adult children ages eighteen to thirty four years old still live with their parents. (HMIH) In the article “The Accordion Family” by Katherine S. Newman discusses many different reasons why adult children ages eighteen to thirty continue to live at home with their parents across several different cultural regions. A few of the major reasons for needing to stay home longer or return home can be: not financially stable to be out on their own, receiving a higher education and the debts that incurred by doing so, loss of job, foreclosures, divorce and there are of course some who can be just plain lazy. I believe it does take a village to raise a child, it is our responsibility to teach and mold these young adults before forcing them into the “real world”. Why does society in general feel that the age of eighteen is an acceptable age to send them off? It is absolutely beneficial to allow our adult children to stay at home longer if needed, both beneficial to society and the family unit altogether economically and to build a stronger family unit.
In reality, surprise is accompanied by other emotions. Though people present these feelings through reaction or impulse, authors present feeling in their stories by using a device called situational irony. Situational irony is the unexpected twist commonly found in short stories. In O. Henry’s “The Ransom of Red Chief,” situational irony is used to create a humorous effect. Guy de Maupassant uses situational irony in his story “The Necklace” to present a sense of justice to the reader. Based on these two stories, it is evident that situational irony is a commonly used method for authors to show sentiment.
The majority of the rectangle is in the driver and analyzer quadrants of the axis. A driver coaching style is direct and to the point (Aguinis, 2013). The driver coaching style is unemotional and fact oriented. The coaching style score also indicate the coaching style of an analyzer. An analyzer coaching style coaches an employee based on the policy or procedure. This coaching style is strictly by the book. The coaching process of assisting the employee with the enhancement of the employee’s skills and abilities to improve job performance (Huang & Hsieh, 2015). Employees require clear and consistent directives in order to perform their job duties at a
After grants, students’ biggest hopes can be to receive scholarships, but large scholarships are rare and difficult to acquire. Full scholarships are almost impossible to receive and smaller scholarships seldom cover enough of the cost of college for that college to be an affordable option. Even if one is valedictorian in high school and receives superb SAT/ACT scores, a helpful scholarship is not guaranteed and they may be forced to live at home and attend the neighborhood college instead of attending a school they worked hard to be accepted to. It has also been proven that colleges give students from lower-class families smaller scholarships and grants than students from upper class families (Sklar 326). Many students receive small scholarships
One of the best things about a scholarship is that it does not leave a student in debt after graduating. This is one of the biggest worries as a college student. Thinking about the future, and all the years it will take to pay off their debt. Leading to distraction and more stress in a student’s life. Another plus to scholarships is that they do not have to be paid back like some other benefits students can receive. Scholarships sound like the best thing ever created but they are not easy to obtain. Scholarships must be earned, they are not handed out to random students around school. They are an accomplishment and a reward to students who do good in high school. A student can receive a scholarship by various ways, like having good grades, or being good at a sport. Scholarships can be for any student, of course if they meet the requirements for them. For instance, “Scholarships for students are not necessarily only for the students who are in need. Even students who hail from a well-off family can get a scholarship and save on costs” (Benefits of Scholarships for Students). Not only do scholarships help pay for college but they also serve as motivation for
Eighteen is a number that has such an enormous value to people; the power to vote, starting college, and being known as an adult. But when do we really begin our adulthood; or is it that the number eighteen is just a state of mind? We are so set to thinking and believing a certain way that we don’t stop and think. Why is it that Adults are still living with their parents at the age eighteen and not moving out? Numbers have shown as the years go by the number of adult children living with their parents are because the support given, education, and economic reasons.
Defensive driving can save lives. It can turn a nonchalant call home into a terrifying call home. It is making the choice between stopping at a stop sign or stopping someone’s life. Defensive driving should be a part of everyone’s daily driving routine. If you practice defensive driving you can save yourself time, money, and a lot of headaches. It also benefits you in more ways than one.
