没读完,注意到如下几点:
1. 2010年一个未向公众披露的调查显示:某隧道工程1/3的工人吃空饷,每天1000美元
工资
2. 工会收买政客要挟建筑商
3. 纽约隧道工程操作同样的机器,做类似量的工作,
需要的人手是亚洲澳洲欧洲(法国等)国家3-4倍
4. 挖隧道工人时薪+福利每小时111元,周末节假日时薪翻倍,超时再翻倍到 400/
per hour, 结果发现工人工作很容易超时(为啥工程整体进度还是那么慢想不明白)

You need to generate more revenue b4 asking for higher salary. If

If you feel you are underpaid then go work for someone else where
your skills are appreciated and thus paid higher. That simple. |

人。 说的我有点动心, 就去了。
结果一看根本就不是那么回事, 首先公司总共加一块儿一共就10个人, 我问他们你们
不是有30个人吗? 他们很惊讶,说我们最红火的时候也没有30个人的时候啊。 有没有
STOCK OPTIONS? 答曰: 俺们根本就不可能上市, 被卖掉到有可能。 他突然感觉自己

I know very few friends used the "Social Science Research Assistant" title
