Dress (BCBG), Sandals (Steve Madden), Necklace (Marc Jacobs)I'm exhausted and my head is throbbing. School was school. In Sociology we discussed the power of authority and what compels people to be obedient. We watched a clip about incidents that occurred at McDonald's and other fast food joints across the country in which a man claiming to be a police officer called the managers and ordered them to strip search employees. In this one case, there was a surveillance camera that caught the female manager strip searching a high school girl. The manager then had her fiance come in to watch the girl while she went back to work. The man on the phone told the fiance to have her do degrading things naked like jumping jacks, bend over, and then had her perform oral sex on him. It sounded so strange that these people would believe this stranger's authority and follow his instructions. But, I guess you can never really understand it unless you've been in that situation.
