I wasn't able to post the actual video in the post, but this was an interesting video I found about the current Recession and the Middle Class. At one point they interview Ehrenreich and a guy criticizes her about her book.

Post 6.
1. Research questions-
I'm not too sure yet what I want my research to be exactly. I know the themes I'd like to focus on are status, emotional labor, the service economy and gender. My friend is a male and a nurse so it would be interesting to see how his gender affects him at work since it's "tradionally" a "female" job. He also does comedy as a side job so I want to see if I could somehow connect his having two jobs to the themes we've worked on in class.
2. Interview questions-
How has your opinion changed about the job?
How had your status in your family changed?
How has your status in society changed?
Do you see a difference in your status as an LPN and a comedian?
What do you do in your downtime?
Does your job affect your everyday life?
What's your daily work routine?
How do your patients make you feel?
Were you trained to handle personal relationships with patients?
What was your familys work life like?
Would you do anything differently?
Do you feel appreciated?
How was the process of finding a job?
How would you describe your experience with doctors?
Do you think the healthcare system works?
What is your workplace like?
Are there any restrictions in your job?
