Stage 3



After reading the article “Why You Shouldn’t Wear Your ‘I’m With Her’ Shirt To Work” by Kristen Bahler, I came to a conclusion that she’s right. We’re in the middle of a crisis by having Hillary and Trump as president nominees and we all have different opinions. On this article she’s talking about why we shouldn’t wear politic related clothing to work and how it could affect the workplace and how that might affect the way we treat each other. She states that although some jobs do let you wear whatever you want to it, you shouldn’t take advantage of it and start wearing political clothing. I agree with her because to me politics are like religions. We all believe in something different and it should be something that we should keep to ourselves so we are not disrespectful. For example, some people are Christian and some are Jewish and most of the time they don’t interact with each other but if they do they are respectful to each other and keep each other’s beliefs to themselves just to not cause an argument about who’s the” better” person, and that’s how it should be towards controversial issues. Such as the topic of who our next president is going to be. I feel like she’s credible because she uses other people to back her argument up. She brought Edward Yost, a HR business partner and asked for his opinion about the issue to which he is against political clothing being worn to your workplace and to which he replied “it’s probably not a good idea”. I also feel she’s credible because in her article she links other people’s work so people can click and study this issue furthermore. I believe this article is directed to the general public but mainly to the people who think it’s okay to express themselves towards issues that they know are very controversial.
