Explain what you do in your job,what qualifications are necessary for the position, and describeyour relations with your supervisor(s), co-workers, and the public(if applicable). According to social psychologistCharles H. Cooley, the looking-glass self is "aself-concept derived from a social 'mirror' in which we can observehow others react to us." In other words, the kind of personwe are is intimately related to the ways in which other peopleinteract with us and influence our behavior. (a) In terms ofthis perspective, how does your job affect yourself-concept, and how does your self-concept inturn affect the way you approach your job? (b) How muchautonomy do you have in your job, and how doesthis relate to the respect shown to you by other people? (c) Whatchanges in your job -- e.g., the responsibilities,benefits, and overall setting -- might bring about an improvedself-concept? (If you're not presently employed, you maydiscuss a past job of yours.) (d) Describe an idealjob that you would like to have, and explain what youwould have to do in order to get it. (e) How has the COVID-19outbreak changed the conditions of your work environment, and howdoes the response to the virus reflect the fault lines of Americansociety along class and race?
