Reputation (Carlton)

I think that in today’s society reputation is still important. Your reputation is information that is used to make a value judgment on you. People judge others on what they hear about them, what they witness that person is doing, and what he or she looks like. It is better to have a good reputation than to have a bad one because most people today go on by what your reputation is. If you cause a lot of trouble people will assume that you are a troublemaker. If you are an honest person people will consider you trustworthy. If you go in and out of prison people would consider you a criminal, which would make it harder for you to get a job or make people believe you. A lot of people take their reputation serious while others really do not care what people have to say about them. If you want to be elected for president it is important that you have a good reputation. People wouldn’t want to elected someone that is known to create bigger problems instead of fixing the ones that need to be fix when they could elect a person that can come in and fix everything right away.
