What does Parker’s employer think of him? How valid is her estimation?
What will be an ideal response?
Parker’s employer is rightly dissatisfied with both his performance and his manners since he breaks her tractor on his second day of work and takes off his shirt while he works (breaking the social code for a Southern man in the presence of a lady). According to Parker, this seventy-year-old female employer is “too dried up to have an interest in anything except getting as much work out of him as she could” (par. 5)—and he is right. One of the most comical descriptions in the story is Parker’s view of his employer: “this old woman looked at him the same way she looked at her old tractor—as if she had to put up with it because it was all she had” (par. 5). The same might be said of why Sarah Ruth stays married to Parker.
