Overheard

So we had to get our summer salary, right? Well, I went to ask for it, and she gave me mine. All the others were really mad at me. “How did you get your summer salary?” So much of it is about having power, especially over Americans. So I was a little like “Ah ha” to them. I went to all of the Peace Corps places. All the Indians there had goiters and were stooped over. After I wrote that story, I realized I had a whole book! Maybe your daughter, since Argentina isn’t as third world, won’t have the same experience.
