INTEGRATIVE SEMINAR WEEK 14

14TH NOVEMBER 2019.

In todays class miss checked the progress of our work, the poems, the questionnaire etc. All groups had a one on one discussion with ma’am where everyone discussed the poems and questionnaires. With the questionnaires, we discussed the kind of interviews we expected and the kind of answers we were looking for, few changes were made to make the interview seem more in flow and soo that the result is clearer. After the class, we went for the interviews, development being the aspect, someone who has worked for a long time would be able to provide us with better information we decided to interview someone who had worked in the area for more than 15 years.

–I’ve been working here since 1973 –“Over the years everything has changed, there’s a lot of traffic, the number of cars have increased, it is difficult to even walk, the area is very crowded. I’ve seen everything come up right in front of my eyes, the new buildings, the station and  the bustle. The change has benefitted me, I earn more now than I used to back in the day”.  –“Both the past and the present are good but I prefer the present and would like to see what’s ahead of me”. –“The only change that matters to me is the education of my children in the future, my son is going to college soon”.

–I’ve been working for the past 20 years. – I’ve noticed a lot of change over the year, there are so many cars, buildings now, there was nothing here before, the area has changed a lot. I think the change is better. In the past 20 years, the flow of money has been constant, I’ve been selling bananas here for the past 20 years and I earn enough to survive. – Thinking about the future is not the luxury that I have, I stay sick for long periods of time, I work for 1 month and then I’m sick for the next. For the future I think there install AC’s in local trains, so that people can travel in comfort. –
