Blog #7

Predict how companies or industries similar to the one that you worked at during internship would have fared during the Great Depression. Would your company have thrived or sunk? Why?

My internship was a self ran photography company. The only people who work there are Betsy and Jeff, and their married, so their funds would go to them and their needs. I'm not sure how often photography was used back then, but if they often put pictures in Newspapers, and rich families wanted their pictures taken, then I think their company would have easily survived since their wages aren't being split amongst hundreds of people, and photography was still fairly new back then. However, if there wasn't many photography jobs, then I'm sure their company would have flopped, since there wouldn't really be any customers.
