The whole morning will be utilized for cleaning the area. The 2nd shift will start at 9:00 in the evening up to 5:30 in the morning.

It employs 48 workers of which 25 are regulars and 23 are contractual. This contractual will do the maintenance and the manual slaughtering of animals.

Currently the number of hogs, cattles and other animals slaughtered are as follows

Hogs 200 to 250 heads
Cattle 30 to 40 heads
Chicken none ( chicken slaughterhouse is out of order)
Goat 20 to 25 heads

The number of heads slaughtered everyday does not level of with the number of kilos meat sold in the public market. In short there are hogs and cattle slaughtered privately.

The following are the charges per head for the service rendered:

Hogs P91.11 per head
Cattle P152 per head
Goat P40.00 per head

    At the beginning of the chapter, Eric meets Hank a local rancher, who shows him around the subdivisions of Colorado Spring that is taking over the ranch land. “The industrialization of cattle-raising and meatpacking over the past two decades has completely altered how beef is produced- and the towns that produce it. Responding to the demands of the fast food and supermarket chains, the meatpacking giants have cut costs by cutting wages. They have turned one of the nation's best manufacturing jobs into one of the lowest paying, created by a migrant industrial workforce of poor immigrants, tolerated high injury rates, and spawned rural ghettos in the American heartland” (Schlosser 149). This quote explains in meat processing companies, which…

    Slaughter House

    • 585 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Slaughter-House-Five written by Kurt Vonnegut is a novel about a character named Billy Pilgrim, who was a Prisoner of War in WWII who fought during the bombing of Dresden in Germany. Since the war Billy has never been the same returning home. He constantly travels back in time to the memories of being in Dresden and how horrible the war was. Billy has insane time travel stories throughout the book making readers believe he is crazy. Kurt Vonnegut himself was a Prisoner of War during the bombing of Dresden and he too suffered greatly during his time. Throughout the novel the readers can make a relation to whether or not this book was based on Vonnegut’s experience in Dresden and using Billy as a character to portray his experiences. Vonnegut is the narrator of the story and tells the story as first person and third person perspectives. Vonnegut using his own experiences and stories in first person perspective in a few chapters makes us believe this book is about him. Many critics argue about this topic using evidence in the book and comparing it to his life, but we do not have a straight forward answer. His role as a narrator plays a major role because he tells the story of the memories he remembers from the bombing. It can paint a picture in the reader’s minds how insane and dreadful the bombing was. This adds mystery and questions while reading the novel and continue to flood questions whether or not Vonnegut was using Billy to explain his story. In my opinion having Vonnegut as the narrator to this novel makes me believe this book was about his life story in Dresden, but using Billy as a character portraying him. Also, it’s hard to use yourself explaining in a book all the hardships and troubles about being in war. Vonnegut has to remember all the dreadful memories that took place being in war which is why he uses Billy to explain his story. There is nothing beautiful or glorious about a massacre as Vonnegut…

    Factory Farming

    In her article “Down on the Factory Farm: It’s a Life Sentence for Animals,” Debra Probert argues that readers should consider becoming vegetarians in response to the abuse of animals on factory farms. In her article, published in Alive: Canadian Journal of Health and Nutrition, Probert describes conditions that a variety of animals endure on factory farms. Her goal is to convince readers of the abuse that animals endure on factory farms and to argue for a decrease or cessation of meat eating by the public. In this article Probert presents information to prove that factory farms are indeed as atrocious as she claims. Although Probert has a very good argument and emotional appeal when visualizing the conditions these animals are subjected to, she does not give any references to ensure that what the readers are reading is indeed accurate, and she lacks the experience and credentials to support the claims. Probert give details to show readers the truth about factory farming.…

    Since factory farms were invented in 1926, the workers have been feeding their animals large amounts of food so when they slaughter them, they have a lot of meat or fatness to put to the public. The amount of food they feed their animals is tremendous. When a pig is born, it weighs about two pounds, but within a year, they weigh about two-hundred sixty pounds. In 1966 is where the pigs would weigh much less than today("Factory Farming"). Many of the animals who are inhabited in factory farms are severely abused and people should recognize this because nowadays, animal rights activists are making animals equal to humans. If a human was being abused like an animal, that would be considered a problem, but animals are equal to us, so they should…
