George Clooney's role in the movie Up in the Air is phenomenal. He plays a character with a job that most people have probably never even imagined having. He goes around to different companies and fires employees in place of the managers. Clooney uses his skills and makes the employee see the brighter side of losing their job. The girl in the movie seems very intelligent, however just a little inexperienced. I could totally understand why Clooney wanted to do the job alone, because knows what he is doing, he's good at it and he doesn't want any type of slack, which is what he felt the girl was going to cause. The girl felt like she knew what she was doing and is obviously very interested in the career because she is constantly focused and always trying. However, Clooney tends to top everything she says and she probably makes her feel like she knows nothing, but she is learning things that will benefit her in this job position. Clooney is good at his job because he has seen it all. He knows exactly how to deal with pretty much any type of response.
If I were in this job position I would probably always try to make the best of it, just like Clooney did. Rather than delivering bad news, he made it as if he were delivering good news. Most people think that getting fired is a bad thing and it always seems that way. However, I do believe there is a bright side to absolutely everything. It's important to stay focus on the positive rather than dwell on the negative, especially when it's something that you deal with on a day to day basis.
