What is important for my project

For this project i think that there will be many things to research. The first thing i would look at is the history of supermarkets and some background information about the topic. As far as the employees, i would look up what kind of jobs that are available at a supermarket. Also i would go into the retail market. This could go into the different types of retail and what is sold at different places. The last topic i would like to bring out is what types of people shop at supermarkets and what they buy.

Supermarket Customer Service

This video talks about customer service in supermarkets.

Supermarket Sources

For this project I decided that the online databases would be the way to go to get accurate information about supermarket and the people that shop there. When i began my search, Academic Search Complete was the first place i went to. This site database has helped me immensly in other classes as well as for some projects that i had to to in high school. When searching i came upon a result that appealed to me. It was a study done on an Australian Supermarket that kept track of the different people that bought different products when going shopping. This source will ceratainly make it into my paper because it talks about the different people you would encounter in this setting.

Essay 2

While on the site that i picked for my essay, i took account of the layout of the store. In addition to that, i checked where different people are in different parts of the store. I also took into account where the different employees were and noticed the manager running around back and forth through the store. Some things i saw were: a woman beating her child because he was crying (not that that will help), a couple fighting about how late it was and that they hadn't started dinner, and a man walking around the drinks section with a large box of KFC chicken. The vast range of people that i saw in kroger, was astounding and i cant wait to go to my site a third time to get more info.

Bowling Alley on Saturday

This video shows a group of kids in a bowling ally on a saturday night.

The Bowling Alley

This writing was very interesting because you get all this information about a bowling ally and who frequents at it. It goes really in depth about the men's bowling leagues and how they interact with each other. The mention how busy it is on one of the league nights and how intense the competition. I think it was good that the essay gives good discription about what the ally looks like inside. It talks about how there are no women there except for the middle aged women that works in the concession stand that serves the men the pizza and other finger foods that are served. Her son also works there to help out. Although they do not have one, i think it would be good if they put a bar in. This would make the ally really good money and allow all of the bowlers to have a good time.
