Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting by in America

Great tale of trying to survive on minimum wage, not to mention the "job hunt" that comes before that! Having worked in retail (with a Master's degree under my belt!) I appreciate some of what she went through, being treated like she was "less than" everyone else just because she had a job as a housekeeper or a clerk. Highly recommended!
