Day 3- Message to Garcia

Today in class we learned about delivering a message to Garcia. The story takes place in the Spanish American war where Garcia is a rebel leader who they want to join their side. The story starts out with a solider named Rowan that got a command from the president to deliver a message to Garcia which he goes through the jungle to get to Garcia. The writer then talks about how the regular person in a working job needs to be like Rowan instead of complaining about their job. The next ting the writer talks about is how hard employers work by keeping their work going and their employees in line. The next part that we talked about was that the writer tells that employers work the hardest. The writer also says that employees who complain about working conditions or hours are horrible workers and should be fired. The writer also says that people who complain should be beat with a club or stomped in the head. The story/essay was made into a pamphlet and a book. The Essay was also translated into 30+ languages and has sold more than 40 million copies. The Writer at the end says that more people need to be like Rowan and not like the clerk.
