Last American Man Chapter 8 response

The reason why the apprentices dislike Eustace so much revolve around a few key things. The first is that Eustace is a hard worker so he naturally demands that his workers do the same, or even more. And second is that Eustace has extremely high standards and hates it when any of his apprentices make such a big screw up that costs him a lot of money, that when he tells them they should pay him back for the costs they get extremely offended by why Eustace cares more about a possession then them. I would definitely not like to work for him because of all that he demands, and the amount of money I might owe if something goes wrong and I mess up. I can see why anyone would want to for him, they would learn intense skills that only a person like Eustace could teach, but at the price that Eustace makes anyone pay, price as in physical and mental pain and only money if you screw up and break something, is just too big, I could not stand one week out with Eustace, I would probably go insane.

nice blog. I agree with you that Eustace sets very high standars for the appretices to work up to and how Eustace gets upset with them if they mess up.. even if it is alittle bit. And yeah.. I'm definitely behind you about not working for a guy like Eustace.
