In the story “Bartleby, The Scrivener” by Herman Melville, there is a character who is an extremely proficient scrivener in the mornings. As the day goes on, he becomes clumsy and unproductive due to his consumption of alcohol.
Turkey’s facebook profile page would be very similar to one of a person who thinks very highly of himself, but at the same time has some very funny drunk photos. Turkey’s photo would most likely be oh him sampling a very expensive wine. Being that he is also an older fellow, he would be relaxing on a large sofa recliner with a pipe in his mouth to make him look sophisticated and intelligent as he ponders the toughest questions in life. Turkey would list his university association, his birthday (everyone does), and his relationship status (most likely not married because he is working as a scrivener in his retirement). Turkey has many photos with his friends and family, and occasionally you will run into a photo of him “hammered” or causing problems in the workplace or at home. He posts wall comments and sends messages to friends, but that only occurs in the mornings, and when he does make posts in the afternoon, they are full of spelling and grammatical errors. His status consists of statements about how he hates his co-worker, Bartleby, and how he hates the words, “I would prefer not to.” Nippers or Ginger-Nut have tagged Turkey in a video or two of him acting very clumsy and getting pissed-off at some rather funny situations.
I chose to describe Turkey’s profile as such because the Lawyer describes Turkey as a very efficient worker in the mornings, but as the afternoon arrives, he becomes gawky and unable to complete tasks. Turkey is an older man, and that is why I felt like he is sophisticated and sees himself as a better scrivener than Bartleby or Nippers. I chose for him to not be married because most people are retired by the time they are sixty or older, and for him to be working as a legal document copier shows that he has not been very successful in life. Turkey is a very unique minor character in this story, and that is why I was so intrigued to write about him.
