Hernando Téllez Just Lather That's All

Hernando Téllez’s “Just Lather, That’s All” encompasses many struggles faced by societies in unrest. However, the point most heavily focused on by the narrator focuses upon his belief that every individual has a specific role within society.

I am in agreeance with the barber in the sense that, in my opinion, everyone does have a role in society based upon the job that they choose. This is because I think that our current society would not be able to function efficiently if people did not have any sort of specific role within it. For example, if no one were to work in a sanitation job, the world would become carpeted in the garbage we create.
