Nickel and Dimed On Getting By in America 在線電子書 著者簡介

Barbara Ehrenreich is an American writer and political activist who describes herself as "a myth buster by trade", and has been called "a veteran muckraker" by The New Yorker.

During the 1980s and early 1990s she was a prominent figure in the Democratic Socialists of America. She is a widely read and award-winning columnist and essayist, and author of 21 books.

Ehrenreich is perhaps best known for her 2001 book Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America. A memoir of Ehrenreich's three-month experiment surviving on minimum wage as a waitress, hotel maid, house cleaner, nursing-home aide, and Wal-Mart clerk, it was described by Newsweek magazine as "jarring" and "full of riveting grit",and by The New Yorker as an "exposé" putting "human flesh on the bones of such abstractions as 'living wage' and 'affordable housing'"

She lives near Key West, Florida.

Nickel and Dimed On Getting By in America 在線電子書 圖書描述

Our sharpest and most original social critic goes "undercover" as an unskilled worker to reveal the dark side of American prosperity.

Millions of Americans work full time, year round, for poverty-level wages. In 1998, Barbara Ehrenreich decided to join them. She was inspired in part by the rhetoric surrounding welfare reform, which promised that a job -- any job -- can be the ticket to a better life. But how does anyone survive, let alone prosper, on $6 an hour? To find out, Ehrenreich left her home, took the cheapest lodgings she could find, and accepted whatever jobs she was offered. Moving from Florida to Maine to Minnesota, she worked as a waitress, a hotel maid, a cleaning woman, a nursing-home aide, and a Wal-Mart sales clerk. She lived in trailer parks and crumbling residential motels. Very quickly, she discovered that no job is truly "unskilled," that even the lowliest occupations require exhausting mental and muscular effort. She also learned that one job is not enough; you need at least two if you int to live indoors.

Nickel and Dimed reveals low-rent America in all its tenacity, anxiety, and surprising generosity -- a land of Big Boxes, fast food, and a thousand desperate stratagems for survival. Read it for the smoldering clarity of Ehrenreich's perspective and for a rare view of how "prosperity" looks from the bottom. You will never see anything -- from a motel bathroom to a restaurant meal -- in quite the same way again.

在中国,薪水多少算低,我不知道。因为仿佛自己从未拿过底薪(只有换工作停发薪水的时候)。但是我还是和那些低薪者共事过。大学毕业找工作,去麦当劳应聘储备经理,曾经和服务员一起劳动过三日。培训我的员工是个老员工,但也是服务员,是个中年妇女。因为带我一起做事,所以...

自己會對這書感興趣,源于在別處偶然看到的評論,大意提到作者在超市打工時,在精神和身體雙重折磨的高壓下,怎樣從一個心懷憐憫、關心底層、遠見卓識的Intellectuel,逐步被同化爲她的“一些底層同事”那樣——苛刻、狡猾、小肚鷄腸、滿懷怨恨。而我則同樣非常能夠理解“離人...

前阵知乎上曾讨论过“生活大爆炸”中Penny的收入能否真的让她过得比较滋润,当时有人引据各种美国的生活数据,证明她是可以过得还不错的。不久之后又看到这本亲历女服务员生活的书,才发现了阳光下的另一面。 《我在底层的生活》,也就是芭芭拉的《Nickel and Dimed》。在《社...
