bonus post.

1) This is a very interesting article about another kind of emotional labor, right here in NYC, with interesting connections to the idea of status and social class. What do you think?



when i read this article, it is a pretty sad story about immigrant workers. How hard to touch stranger's body for doing the waxing. even it is working, it required an emotional work and workers feel like salve and physical volunteers.. many immigrants who do not speak English treat like this. how can we solve theses kind of problems for them. they receive low wages and feel like salve for customers. it is so sad and i hope that they should be a reasonable payment from store. even though they work hard , they did not receive the enough money. Their working store take off the 40% commission from the owner. they even work for 11 and 12 hours even they did not have a break time for nail worker and expose a toxic manicure products. I think that society is not fair for everyone. however, we should try to keep their right on the society as various ways. improving the wages... or reasonable treatments...

I think that global economy related to all other countries . All of the countries help each other and they pursue benefits for their country. Moreover, there is gap between the poor country and rich country because world is an capitalistic. when i think about the my work...I have a part time job as waitress. it offers services to customers to carry the food. if we do not work for custoemrs, it is pretty difficult to manage restaurant. I also use lots of services through the restaurant, movie theater and stores. all of the products and services which we are using in any places made from other countries or our country. specially, Flim "Madi Gras Made in China" shows about the Global economy. every countries is not the same wealth so some countries are very rich and another country is very poor. For instance, American consider to the most powerful country in the world and they are using lots of workers in china because labors wage is very cheap. Thus, there are many manufactureres in china and make products which became to be using in other countries. so, workers in china have to devoted their labors to make the products to make the money. However, they abused their labors becuase they even work so hard ,they do not receive lots of money.. I think that we can not change the our capitalisim economy but we have to give a reasonable treatments to labors.
