Lupita is a software engineer. she just found out that if she wants to keep her job, she is going to have to learn an entirely new coding system. this will take her many months to learn. if lupita is trying to build a "liquid" career instead of a "cement" career, how would she react? this is completely unfair—i shouldn't have to change when i'm good at my job. learning something new will be hard, but it will make me more valuable in my career. i'm going to lose this job—i'm the worst at learning new stuff. they can train someone else if they want, but i don't need to learn that.

Each night she lay down in pain and rose to the celluloid butterflies of her beloved dead, lenin and marx and stalin arrayed at the footstead. and rose to her easel, the hundred dogs panting like children along the graveled walks of the garden, diego’s love a skull in the circular window of the thumbprint searing her immutable brow. how does the underlined figurative language contribute to the meaning of the poem? it describes the reason for frida’s pain and suffering. it indicates that the love frida once felt has died. it shows that frida continues to think of politics. it suggests that frida prefers to be around nature.
