Even we can find a very clear difference between stories: In Galarza´s story, the main character found a real interest and genuine curiosity about his fate, the fact to constantly traveling and face another cultures; while in Baker´s tale, show us a kid totally unhappy with his job that confirm us an evident lack of interest for the one.
Finally we can highlight that, in <em>barrio boy</em>, constantly travelling and the workers world contact and their daily live give to the author the opportunity to become in an union worker and in that way fell himself identified with their cause; In <em>No gumption </em>the author when he finally found out he is not a good newspapers salesman, not even care to try it to be a good one, find the way to begin to write and finally realized he is a good writer.
