Unit 9 Discussion Board: Social Class (small group discussion)- Group 5
Using Dennis Gilbert and Joseph Kahl’s model of social class, I can identify my family’s social class position on the social class ladder as lower middle class. My father is a general manager who works for a trucking company. He manages all the tax revenues, trucking routes and truck repairs after the route. He works under the supervision of his owner. He receives orders from his owner and then execute that orders by assigning work to the workers under him. He earns around $55,000. My mother works as a Nurse in a facility. She earns around $35,000. She works under the supervision of other doctors and nurses. My father and mother together earn $90,000 per year. People earn
