Nickel and Dimed: Undercover in Low-wage USA
Barbara Ehrenreich
Granta, 2010 - Minimum wage - 221 pages
0 Reviews
Millions of Americans work full-time, year-round, for poverty level wages. Distinguished journalist Barbara Ehrenreich decided to join them, in order to find out how anyone survives on six to seven dollars an hour. Ehrenreich left home, took the cheapest lodgings she could find and accepted whatever job she was offered, from cleaning to care work, waitressing to folding clothes at Wal-Mart. So began a gruelling, hair-raising and darkly funny odyssey through the underside of working America.

要说作者是个骗子恐怕过了,但是没有原帖时间出处就是盗版。美国时工资已经涨了很多。

服务员每天19美元,没水没空调的小破房子每月500美元?
主人公应该捡砖头搭小破房子。
10天搭一个,一年30个小破房子。
月入15000美元,CASH ONLY
或者卖给我,500美元月租的房子我愿意5万美元收购,有多少收多少。
闭门造车,拼命煽情的作者一定不知道美国是非常保护房客的。有那么多的法律约束,根本就不可能没有热水,冬天没暖气。这让我想起很久以前看过的一部北韩拍的“可怜的美国人”的宣传片。
