Assignment-Building Sand Castles in Hollywood

What's the main Point? Summarize in one sentence.
  • This article is mainly about construction and having a job out in Hollywood. I think it talks about almost the same thing and compares them to other things they have experienced and seen in life.

Discuss: Why does Rob Neill compare building sets for television to building sand castles?
  • He compares the buildings with Sand Castles being made because when they have finished up a building, and used it for what it was for, they begin to tear them down in about a month, some places can be a year or more.

Describe the steps along the construction career ladder and the increasing amount of responsibility that comes with each position.
  • It's just about the constructing buildings and learning how to do it. You have to be skilled to do what it tells you. You don't need a college degree as long as you know what you are doing. As you go into the job, they let you know what tools you should be good with and can handle. Out of this all you just need to have construction skills and get the job done.


How does this article relate to you? Like, dislike, interesting, not interesting?
  • Well, to me, I just think it's pretty interesting to read. It makes people think about other things such as constructing and building things and comparing them.
