This is a very interesting book! I loved the idea that Barbara went "undercover" as a waitress, cleaning woman and Walmart employee to show how hard it is for some people in our society to get by and how unfair life in the United States can be. For anyone in this situation, it will be a confirmation that they are not the only ones. For those not in this situation, it gives a very eye-opening view to others' reality and inspires tolerance and compassion. I think this book should be required reading. Not that it is all business however. Barbara adds a poignant dose of humor and some parts are really funny. I guess she had to keep a good sense of humor to put up with some of the things she went through. 2 thumbs up.
