Hi, I’m David Cucinotta, currently a freshman at PennState Abington and eighteen years old. Most people call me “Cuch” because they can’t pronounce my last name (and it caught on). Feel free to call me that. I grew up in Fox Chase, Philadelphia until I was fourteen and moved to Huntingdon Valley. I attended Roman Catholic High School located in downtown Philadelphia. I play baseball (third base/first base) as well as basketball (center). I have a Bayliner 245 boat, on the Delaware River, located at Dredge Harbor Marina. Boating, deep-sea fishing, crabbing, and going to the beach are my ideal free-time hobbies. I’m a football fan and don’t miss a single game during regular season. As of right now I work at Saladworks in Southampton as a part-time job. I whip up mad salads so stop by.
Location: Fox Chase/ Burholme, Philadelphia, PA 19111, USA

PB1A on Fast-Food Menus

Image
          Working for a fast-food company almost makes you memorize the menu of that company’s food menu. Whether or not you’re making food, cleaning dishes, or managing, it is imperative that you know what that company sells. Working at Saladworks, you would think I’d know exactly what is on their menu. You’d be wrong.               Most people know exactly what a menu at a fast-food place or restaurant, just based off how often society buys cheap and inexpensive foods on the go. What first comes to mind for me when thinking what would be on a food menu is; -Food name -Price (of food) -Quantity (of food) -Restaurant’s name -Description of food                       These are the basics to a menu, and what comes to mind when I think about browsing a menu. The sole purpose of a menu is infor...

PB1B on Genre Generators

Image
             The purpose of genre generators is to give someone a new perspective on what they might have had on a certain genre. These “random” genre generators give you back different conventions based on what you insert into the generator. Each different generator will give a totally different genre because they generate different words, conventions, and images each time you use them. The first genre generator which I viewed was by a company called SCIgen, which generated random, and nonsensical, scientific research papers. This convention used by this generator would largely be based on “false” scientific studies, false research, and unactual information. This generator will create a believable research paper based on completely false information, but will make the reader believe it to be true.               An example of this website’s randomly generated scientif...

PB2A Part 1 & 2

                        The discipline I selected for WP2 is Business. A concept that a researcher at Penn State Abington studies in this field is the topic of gender wage gaps. This professor, Seonghee Han, is one of the professors who study in this aspect of business. In the business field, the question of if there is a wage gap between genders is recently a very popular topic. The reason I find this intriguing is that there are several instances where female business employees are paid differently than men employees, but if this difference in pay have anything to do with their sex. To me, it seems almost impossible to be able to measure this in detail, purely because there are so many variables that affect how a person is paid in a specific field, especially the business field. If I had to devote a long time studying in this field, I would devote that time to uncovering facts and falsities among this specific cont...
