On the TED Talk which we watched in class, the speaker argues that companies should hire “scrappers,” who don’t have many advantages, rather than “silver spoons,” who achieve success. She gives us some examples and research to illustrate that a scraper can also succeed and even better than a silver spoon.
To be honest, I was moved by this video. It sounds like to encourage scrapers and make them believe that the world is still beautiful, although they were born in a dysfunctional family. Life is ALWAYS hard, especially for the people who are suffering. Silver spoons have enjoyed too many advantages in the world. And we should indeed do something to scrappers, not only to give them a chance to succeed but also to make them feel warm and be loved. They also deserve advantages and opportunities.
