                Example

               

“picking off little chunks with trembling fingertips and cramming them into her mouth” p. 97

Imagery. Ehrenreich focuses on her small, frantic movements to emphasize Holly’s hesitancy to accept her generous offer of food, after forgetting her lunch. She portrays Holly in this way to emphasize that Holly is not used to being helped by others at her job and is unsure how to react, but does really appreciate the food, as she is sick and hungry. This relates to Ehrenreich’s purpose in this chapter to show that while these women work as a group, they are overworked to a point that they cannot or do not care for one another, or themselves. Ultimately, this is not the fault of the workers’ but of the unrealistic expectations of the companies.
