Subject: Carmen and Violetta

I find it slightly diffucult to compare the two, being I haven't seen that much of Violetta yet, but as of now, I find them to be very differant in the differant aspects of their similar jobs.

Carmen works in a cigarette factory as her occupation, but her chosen "job" is a "bad girl". There is really no benefits for her, only the satisfaction of hurting people and observing the conflicts that arise because of her behavior. She often claims to fall in love, but that is questionable because of how quickly she falls out of it.

On the other hand, Violetta's chosen occupation is as a courtesan, and she is respected for it. She is educated and is able to provide men with more that just physical aspects. It seems that she does not fall in love very easily, but when she does, she is willing to risk everything for this love.
