Personal Narrative-Charlotte Rouse Employee

Improved Essays
“I’m not the shoe person, you have to ask Sally,” says a Charlotte Rouse employee without even looking at me and before I could even finish my sentence. I instantly felt uncomfortable and didn’t want to ask a follow up question; for instance, “Who is Sally?” Eventually, I found Sally, she asked what size my feet were, I said “an eight please.” Twenty minutes went by; Sally returned with a pair of nines. I replied, “I’ll try these, but my shoe size is actually an eight,” and huffed, “Why didn’t you say that then?” I apologized and she walked away and got me a ten, and this point an hour has gone by and the shoes were getting larger, instead of getting my what I asked for. I again said, “my shoe size in an eight.” She laughed and said “We do

    In the discombobulation of day to day life, all types of people are going to try to knock you down. This hardship was experienced personally by Brenda Roza as she realized that “there may not be that person next to you that's going to speak up for you”. There is no reason for strangers being malicious, to try to knock other people down when they’re not even known to you. Regardless, it is imperative that you are able to defend yourself- just as Brenda Roza did. Having been told throughout her entire life that she couldn’t do certain things, Brenda thought that that being a successful person might be beyond reach to her - impossible.…

    In the Human Services field I am very passionate about working with people in the deaf culture. I am passionate about working with this population because I know American Sign Language and I feel a connection to the community. Learning ASL took a long time and allowed me to be engaged in many events in the deaf community. I believe people in this population are not given nearly as much attention or opportunities as they should be. The lack of equal access to education, jobs, and basic interactions that hearing people take for granted is not fair and puts this population at a disadvantage therefore making it important for people to want to work with this group of people.…
