Serving in Florida
In this article Barbara Ehrenreich tells her story as she tried to handle two jobs and the things she goes through. She tells her story very well. Having two jobs is not easy I personally have never had two jobs, but people that i know that do it is hard. Working two jobs also affects your health like Barbara explains she was leaving on pain pills. What i got out of this story is that without education you just go from job to job and never be happy with what you are doing. The answer to get what you want is to get an education a degree on something. Working as a waitress for your whole life there will come a time in life when the person will think what have i done with my life and realize they are not happy. Not having an education means going from job to job with low salary and doing something you don't like and staying there because you need the money. Going to college could be hard, but it is worth it. The time to act is now because when we are 50 or older and realize that we didn't do anything in our life it could be to late. It is good that Barbara just walked away and realized that she didn't have to keep working there if she didn't want to. Sometimes we just think on other things instead of thinking what makes us happy. It was also nice that Barbara tried to help her coworkers, they because your closest friends because you spend most of the time with them. But even having nice coworkers if like Barbara have a mean manager well makes your life miserable. So the conclusion finish college no matter what even if it will take a 100 years, but at the end you will feel good that you did something with your life and nobody will take that away from you. Do it for yourself to have a better life.
