a strangers touch

i could sooooo relate to thise article....

when it really got me was "The first time I got a pedicure, I felt something similar: physical vulnerability, mingled with a lurid awareness of power—an Asian woman who didn’t speak English was kneeling in front of me, washing my feet. "

i feel like that each time that i goo.

i always get my tips and pedicure done..

i am the mosttt annnoying person to do nails for.

i have to have them perfect. all of them even all of them must me thin

and the french must be a perfect straight line

i felt like i was using them knowing that i paid

specialy when they do my feet

i find funny how they plan to raise it to 8. 25 in 2011
when i think we should have that rate now.
With all the inflation that is going on .. it just seem about fair

they dont see that fact that we are living in a city and that
its expensive living here.

7.25 is going to be the new federal minimum wage

woooooowwww

as new york state we have 7.15 ..
10 cent more wont make a different

and since they see they have to pay there workers more they will probly make us
work harder for those 10 cents more an hour

research & interview question

1) What is your research question(s)? In other words, what are you trying to figure out with your interview that will connect to course texts and themes? Think about our list of key terms.
You might have a few research questions: think about their relation to one another.

My research question is
" The status and emmotional labor that immigrant workers go threw in America"

2) Brainstorm a list of interview questions. These are questions you will actually use in the interview. They will relate to your key terms but may not include them directly (although they might). You want to have about ten interview questions. You might include follow-ups. Keep in mind that rather than reading down your list of questions, you'll want to adjust and add questions based on what your interviewee tells you.

My interview questions are
what makes you happiest in your job?
what annoyes you the most?
do the costumeres or the co workers stress you out the most?
if you were to win the lotto, would you go back to your country?
you dont think that going back to your country be easier for you to make a profesion?

who to interview??

2) We've read a variety of stories about work. Soon, you'll do a project centered around interviewing someone about their work. What kind of work are you interested in learning more about? Brainstorm people you know who you might like to interview. Ideally, they should have been in their area of work for a while, or have worked a variety of jobs.

I would love to learn about people in the pyshcology area because thats what i really wanted to be. But really i dont know anyone who is in this field. who im thinking about interviewing is either my mom, aunt, or my boyfriend. My aunt has been in the education deparment for over 19 years. My boyfriend has been working in a food service industry for 4 years but his been working since the age of 13. I dont know who would be more interesting but those are my chooses.
