Willy's Decision

 In the novel The Death of a Salesman Willy turns down Charles offer of offering him a job at his shop. Charlie offers him the job because Willy has lost his. Also due to Willy losing his job, Willy is worried about the money situation. Without having a job Willy can soon run out of money. When Charlie offers him the job Willy turns it down, not because he doesn't want the job, but because Willy looks at the overall view of dignity. Willy thinks that if her were to take the job offer from Charlie who he always bickers with then his dignity will go down and Willy's dignity is more important to him than having a salary. I believe this is a dumb decision because having a salary and supporting your family is way more important than having your dignity. Sometimes there are pints in life where your dignity is not as important as it usually is or should be. There are some things in life that come before your dignity, which supporting your family is one of them.
