Oakland careers churn out stiff personal dispositions

At the celebration of their wedding anniversary, Mr. and Mrs. Jones invited me for dinner to make merry. I don’t know how but this supper would be a remembered one to me. It was an indifferent dinner anyone would take with his neighbor. Home made grub, extra- clean house and a cheerful family, a family comprising of three sons. Yes, three sons whose diversified vocations made me go out of the ordinary. As soon as I was sat down on the dining table, I just saw them and gave them a smile, but to my astonishment, none of them reacted. This gave me a feeling as if I am seated in front of three Robots, three stiff Robots. Then Mr. Jones introduced me to his three sons, or to say, the three emotionless robots. Just to respond, I quizzed Mr. Jones about his sons’ careers.Now the thing that I am still unable to decipher is that, the very second he told me about their vocations, my mind clogged up with an idea, completely motivated by those emotionless actions of three, that were totally weird. His first son, happened to be one of the Oakland Plumbers ! To me it seemed as if his work was not to repair seeping taps but to collate and set the streams of dumb thoughts flowing out of the head, similar to the molecules of H2O, I mean the molecules of water and send them back into the head so that they don’t flow like liquid. The other son, who was an Oakland Electricians looked so blank and expressionless made me feel that he is the criminal who has damaged the wiring of minds of his two brothers with his various tools such as conduit benders, pliers, wire strippers, drills, ohmmeters, voltmeters, oscilloscopes. An image formed in my head the way he must have opened brain, wired it and then plugged it back. Whoa! Then comes the last but not least, his third son, one of those most popular Oakland Roofers who show finesse through their work. But then I thought, how could this emotionless robot make those eye catchy art works on top of the roof. To me it appeared as if he could only fix the roof of brains and make them quiet to the emotions and all, like his. Possibly, it’s the emotion that makes the machine being known as HUMANS….
