What has work become?

摘要

This is an alarming account by a jour-nalist, Jill Andresky Fraser, of the plight of American office workers. She has interviewed a wide sample of America's "cubicle-dwellers"—corporate white-collar employees below the level of senior management. They complain of job insecurity, low pay rises, overwork and "job spill" as e-mail and voice-mail pursue them after work, eroding out-of-office life with family, friends and community.
