Lisko’s American Life

Although some time ago, after everyone’s strikes and demonstrations, many state capitals have launched an increase in the minimum per capita income level and negotiated successfully, raising the original price of 5 dollars to the level of 8 dollars, but this increase is for many It is still a drop in the bucket for people.

In other words, if a worker works 8 hours a day and calculates at an hourly wage of $8, his annual income for the whole year is only around $10,000, which is simply unaffordable. The daily rent, water and electricity expenses , not to mention the lowest level of subsistence for a family of three.

You must know that the consumption level in this country is still very high, so even if it is calculated based on the hourly salary of 8, the annual income of 10,000 US dollars still belongs to the category of the poor. In addition to receiving some relief food every month, There is no way to survive well in this society.

Member workers with rich survival skills in society are still at this price. For student workers, this price will naturally be reduced by about 30%. Therefore, the salary of ordinary students engaged in the service industry is about 5 dollars an hour. About, although there are some extra income from tipping on weekdays, as the economy has not improved, many people are also a little bit stingy in reaching consumption, and the tip income they can receive every day is also very little.

The hourly salary of 20 yuan per hour on Xiaoyu's recruitment information can be said to be groundbreaking. Many people even hesitated because they were worried about the authenticity of this recruitment information, and did not respond in time. Instead of dialing out the phone to inquire, I immediately found the person in charge of the student union on the relevant website forum to verify.

You must know that this is the case for many people. If something comes too easily, everyone will doubt the authenticity of this thing, or even doubt the quality of this thing. To give a very simple example, if you are on the road I bought a gold brick for 5 yuan at a side stall. I believe you will not think that this gold brick is absolutely real gold, but you will think it is other metals or cheap decorations.

These students also have the same idea. Although they don't have much experience in social life, they also know that the sky will never fall easily. Any honey that looks very delicious may contain Wrapped with the corresponding arsenic.

But this theory is not suitable for everyone, and there are some people who are already facing a desperate situation. This recruitment information will not deliberately think and verify, but take advantage of the time when everyone has not reacted. Instead of asking the student union, it is better to ask the shop owner who posted the recruitment information. If the information is correct, he can get a spot in advance.

This salary may be very expensive for many college students, but for Xiaoyu, only a simple monthly expenditure, about 1,200 US dollars, can get him a right-hand assistant and save him a lot of work , It’s something that can’t be changed. After my own calculation, the monthly profit of an online store will probably be maintained at around 15,000 US dollars, and about 1/15 of the salary is used to recruit employees. In Xiaoyu’s eyes It's a very normal thing to come.

Alisa is a Native American resident from a remote small town. Her parents are not great talents. Her father works in a slaughtering and processing plant in the town, while her mother works as a waiter in a convenience store in the town. , there is not only an older brother above him, but even a younger brother behind his own age.

Living in this kind of family, Marisa's daily life is relatively happy. Although her family is not so rich, many things can be bought by others at will, but when it comes to her side, she needs to think carefully. In order to be able to make corresponding decisions, not only does she not have good-looking clothes, fashionable dresses, and various electronic products with special functions in her life, but she has the love and encouragement of her family, which does not make her feel how life is. Worry and heartache.

This kind of life has been maintained from childhood until he graduated from high school, but at the moment he received the university notice, he truly realized the cruelty of the whole society and the world, because he has excellent grades and good Resume, many well-known universities have attached an admission letter, but I am not good enough to get a scholarship. In this way, those admission letters with joy gave this happy family a happy ending. Heavy blow.

A university without a scholarship, life can almost be described as suffering, although when facing himself, both father and mother hugged their daughter very proudly and recognized his hard work all the time , but because of excessive joy, Alisa waited until late at night when she got up to go to the toilet, but she could hear her parents sitting in the living room, digging out all the savings in the whole family and counting it over and over again, and then spit out mouthful after mouthful. lament.

When she realized that her family was not that rich, Alisa immediately decided to give up her plan to go to college. For herself, graduating from high school is also a very good result. You must know that many people even have the honor of graduating from high school. There is no way to get it. Although it will have a great impact on his future life, he doesn't want to cause more burden and blow to the family because he went to college.

When her decision spread to the ears of her father and mother, she immediately met with unanimous opposition from the other party, and even her father was a little furious. In a remote town, and because of his own powerlessness, all the child can see is the sky in front of him.

It is precisely because of their own practical experience that parents will try their best to let each of their children successfully get out of this restricted city, so that each other can have more different lives when they are young. And possibilities, also allow the other party to see more different wonderful and scenery in the process of life, unlike the two of us, who face every day except for the corpses of cows waiting to be dissected, which is day after day. The day is holding a scanner and doing boring scanning work on different items.

Under the coordination of the two parties, a good solution was chosen, choosing a school with less expensive tuition fees, and at the same time bearing a certain amount of student loans. The parents worked hard to make their lives more frugal, and as Alisa, a student, also tried her best to save the burden for the family as much as possible when she was in school, so as to achieve a balance of the best of both worlds.
