Teenager Ban on Restaurants 1) Are teenagers really that annoying? What can be worse than a group of noisy high school students invading your peace and quiet during your precious and very limited lunch time? Mr. Joe, the manager of Munchy’s restaurant is placing a ban on teenagers throughout lunchtime. Teenagers can get quite annoying, especially to people who are in need of a more relaxed and quiet environment during meal times. It can also do harm to the restaurant by driving customers out, which may decrease profit. Businesses should have the right to control which customers are involved in their business. They should not be investing a large sum of money into their business in order to have it terrorized by noisy high school students …show more content…
This affects the business directly, in terms of profits. In Source 2: Business Analysis 2 pie charts, and a multi-bar graph represent the monthly sales at Munchy’s restaurant. In the pie graph of “Munchy’s Patrons in July”, the population is made up of 80% adults, and 20% minors. In the pie graph of “Munchy’s Patrons in October”, the population at Munchy’s is made up of 73% minors and 27% adults. From the data shown in the pie graphs we can come to a conclusion that the more teenagers there are that visit Munchy’s, the more adults there are that leave, which suggests that teenagers are causing customers to leave. In the second graph, a multi-bar graph is given that shows the relationship in population in Munchy’s Monthly Sales between minors and adults. In July, there were about $3,000 sales from minors, and nearly $30,000 sales from adults, but the population of the minors gradually increased as the number of adults gradually decreased. In October, there were $5,000 sales for minors, while there was only an approximate of $6,000 for adults. This also proves the same point the first two pie graphs did: teenagers are causing adults to
This company focuses on quality and customer satisfaction. Their need to achieve goals beyond their measures is consistently shown in every aspect of the complex. They are also trying different ways to satisfy each age group. First of all, if you’re under 21 you must be accompanied by a parent or guardian that’s 25 or older. After 10:00 p.m. no one under 21 is allowed in. This is an advantage as well as a disadvantage for this company. The advantage is that they can draw in a certain type of crowd after 10:00 p.m., then the facility pr...
Schools with enormous food courts where students can buy meals and drinks from commonly known franchises, such as McDonalds and Coca-Cola, are the schools with the most health problems. Fast-food franchises are showing up everywhere, but do these businesses belong in high schools? No! Schools are here to enlighten students for life after school. If high schools promote bad eating habits by placing fast-food franchises in their cafeterias, then how can students eat right and healthy beyond high school.
As shown above, curfew laws can play a very critical role in a teenager’s life. It can assist with keeping the city safer, help them get enough sleep, and help them build their personal skill under a well-structured system routine. A lot of people might find curfew laws for teenagers unconstitutional and contradict the first amendment, so they decide not to abide with it. But by doing so, they are placing more a bigger experience to teenagers who are still working on developing their skills to take on new challenges. After all, Teenagers are the future of our society if we don’t teach, coach, direct, and offer guidance their future will be unstable and unproductive and that will affect the entire nation.
The teens live in an environment where drinking alcohol is the same as drinking water. They are allowed to drink as much as they would like, as long as they do not embarrass their parents. Many of the teens get drunk for the first time in the eighth grade. That is seven years before they legally should even have their first sip. “Rufus kept the beer flowing out of keg in the bathtub, getting many drunk for the first time” (Ziegesar). Also many of them come into school with horrible hangovers. This shows that these kids are way too young to be getting drunk, because they do not know how to handle themselves properly. Coming to school with a hangover can affect how they learn and keep them from getting the best education possible. This also illustrates how drinking seems so much fun for the kids, but it conveniently leaves out the consequences of this action. Furthermore, irresponsible teens do not think ahead for their future. They do not consider the health risks involved, such as alcoholism and liver
because us kids are the new generation. We need to lower the amount of sodium, fat and processed food that is being served.
Based on the study from Chicago-based Research International USA found that more than half of the population eats fast food once a week and with a 20 percent eating fast food at least every other day. Most being males below middle age. Also more than half of the guests were with family members, 29 percent of these guests are with children under the age of 18. Fast foods chains are targeting kids and young adults by utilizing cartoon characters and celebrities to influence them into their products. They also build playgrounds in their restaurant to help draw kids into business and also provide toys with cartoon characters they can relate. Some chains have website which are geared for kids and allow them to play games and interact with their products. These tactics are to entice kids into their restaurants which are a contributing factor with higher rate of guests that are under 18.
The fast-food industry accounts for 40 percent of people employed in the restaurant business (of all types), of an approximate 6 million workers. The author gives evidence to show how fast-food highly depends on teenagers to work because the statistics are, about 70 percent of the workers are twenty years old and under, this was most likely their first type of job. This industry is mainly part time employee’s whose average work week consists of 29.5 hours. The rates of staff changes are quite regular, only about more than 50 percent stay for longer than a year. These jobs are mainly filled by lower
“By age 15, I had packed 212 pounds of torpid teenage tallow on my once lanky 5-foot-10 frame. Then I got lucky. I went to college, joined the Navy Reserves and got involved with a health magazine. I learned how to manage my diet. But most of the teenagers who live, as I once did, on a fast-food diet won 't turn their lives around: They 've crossed under the golden arches to a likely fate of lifetime obesity” (463). As Zinczenko stated many teenagers are misinformed about the unhealthy foods they are eating. But is it the fast food industries job to inform them? I don’t think so the fast food industry is interested in making money not informing the public the harm that their food would cause them. Radley Balko states in his essay “What You Eat is Your Business” “…. our government ought to be working to foster a sense of responsibility in and ownership of our own health and well-being” (467). The fast food companies are aware of the accusations made over the years and has acquired different varieties of healthy alternatives to their menu such as; grilled vs fried chicken, a variety of salads, apples instead of french fries, and substituting milk for soda. Those changes do not stop consumers from walking into a McDonald’s and ordering their child a happy meal with fries and a soda it is the choice of the
Business owners can not jump to conclusions and ban teens just because of their age and because of what they hear. Teens should not be banned from Munchie’s because they will lose business, it is discrimination against teen also known as ageism, and it could leave Munchie’s with some
If nothing is being done about what students eat at school, it is just helping our younger population to become corpulent. “Junk food plays a major role in the obesity epidemic. By the year 2050, the rate of obesity in the U.S. Is expected to reach 42 percent, according to researchers at Harvard University. Children who eat fast food as a regular part of their diets consume more fat, carbohydrates and processed sugar and less fiber than those who do not eat fast food regularly”(debate). Parents can also be responsible for how the child eats.
It is 2:15 PM and the ban on teens at Munchy's has begun. Munchy's states there are many loud, cell phone addictive teens, therefore they are banning them. They are banning teens just for being teens. Business’ should not have the right to ban students based on their age because not only does that discriminate but it also is bad for a business’ sales and reputation.
cafeterias, and there should be a limitation on use of vending machines to after school
They are out there causing trouble, drinking, smoking, and having sex. The teenagers: feared by parents all around the world. That is not the reality; the majority of teenagers will not be out looking for trouble. On a typical Friday night teenagers will be hanging out with their friends, catching up with everything that has gone on during the week. Why do parents fear for their teenager’s lives? So often we hear about violent crimes and things that go bump in the night, but do we think that the problems can be solved by a magical curfew? Can parents really keep their teenagers out of trouble or does an imposed curfew only lead to resentment and chaos? Parents think back to when you were a teenager, did you have a curfew? If so, did you follow the rules or break them? Teenagers are no more likely to follow the rules today than they were in the past. It is not likely that creating a curfew for teenagers will cut down on the risk of violence and rule breaking.
In today’s society, some parents create curfews for their children while others allow their children to create their own curfews. Numerous people argue that setting curfews for teenagers help them refrain from taking part in mischief and help them to develop into superior adults. The remaining group of people state that curfews would make teenagers rebel. Teenage curfews produce many different positive and negative views in parents and teenagers. Different opinions on curfews are expressed through parents, teenagers, and mayors; and there are numerous reasons for people not supporting curfews.
According to McClain, Kansas City police and officials implemented a curfew for minors. This curfew restricts teenagers the rights that they’re are able to take part in. The curfew refuses teens the right to dine, watch movies, talk with friend, or walk around the plaza after 9 p.m. The curfew was implemented due to a shooting that occurred involving a number of teenagers. This article informs the reader that not only are teens having the freedoms that other people are able to enjoy taken away, but they are also being discriminated against because of their age. These restrictions are not only discriminative, but they’re unconstitutional. The 14th amendment to the constitution has a clause, called the Equal Protection Clause. The Equal Protection Clause states, “The constitutional guarantee that no person or class of persons shall be denied the same protection of the laws that is enjoyed by other persons or other classes in like circumstances in their lives, liberty, property, and pursuit of happiness” (thefreedictionary.com). The Equal Protection Clause also prevents a class of people from feeling inferior. This clause could easily be extended to teens as well because they are viewed as intellectually inferior by majority class. Adolescents are thought to be incapable of making an appropriate solution to a situation. This misconception has been formed due to parents and elderly people forcing children to follow strict rules and do as the parent or elderly person says; this prevents the child from creating their own solution to problems and causes the child to lack problem solving skill. The lack of problems solving skill could affect them more substantially in life, due to them no longer being minors and having their punishment more severe. Teens are widely regarded as trouble-makers, but they only cause trouble in their pursuit to experience life. Not only do curfews force children to
