Before taking this class I still used rhetoric on a daily basis, I just may not have known it. Now I am somewhat more conscious when I'm using rhetoric, but I haven't necessarily changed. One example of using rhetoric is when talking politics with people. You want to convince them that you're right about your candidate being the best man for the job. I also used rhetoric just recently when I convinced my boss to let me have a week off at the end of December to go to New York. Even though we aren't supposed to be allowed any vacation time during the months of November or December I used pathos and ethos to convince him to let me go and he approved.
