In the beginning she explains how she seen stereotypes play out and how she “became the stereotype of a deadbeat McDonald’s worker.” Given the opportunity to reflect on the four years she was able to learn how to have empathy. This also allowed her to grow as a person and a better co-worker. Near the ending of her argument, she explains to the reader that she realized that “this attitude was way grosser than shoveling fries.” She says this to mean imply that because you are working in an entry-level position doesn’t make you better than those who aren’t. Norquay believes that people who are working at McDonald’s tend to be stereotyped verses people who work in retail or at Chipotle. People tend to think a person may have chosen to work in the fast-food industry because they aren’t able to receive entry level jobs. Consumers usually look differently at these people but Norquay explains her view on these people. Norquay talks about the diverse group of people and each one having their own skills. Norquay allows her personal experiences to be expressed with pathos by providing a visual of what it was like working there by sharing the stories from the time she was there in the 4 years. This allows the reader to feel empathic towards fast food
