我建议参与这场讨论的各位都去读一读朱丽叶·肖尔的《The Overworked American》。这本书出版了快三十年，但对于“中产阶级”工作模式的历史和现状，至今仍是一部令人大开眼界的剖析。书的前半部分有一段关于计件工的……
I recommend everyone involved in this discussion pick up a book called "The Overworked American" by Juliet Schor. It was released almost 3 decades ago, yet remains an eye-opening account of the history and current reality of "middle class" work patterns. There's a part early on about piece-work…
……各项才能得以施展）；特权阶层撰写的大量描写繁重劳动的文献，实际上是一种宣传手段或一厢情愿的虚构。我建议读读朱丽叶·肖尔的《The Overworked American》。它概述了西方历史上的各种劳动模式。
…faculties could be exercises); much of the literature describing back-breaking labor, written by the privileged classes, was actually a form of propaganda or wish-fulfillment fiction. I'd suggest reading The Overworked American by Juliet Schor. It provides an overview of historical modes of labor in the West.
