Since this is my final semester, I am writing my thesis. In my psychology program, our thesis is 20 pages long. Mine is still very much a young paper, a fetus even, but right now the title is Walking the Path at Eight Dollars an Hour: A Contemplative Look at Customer Service. I have yet to fully formulate the specifics of what I will cover, but I think I'll answer the question of whether it is possible to walk a Buddhist path in a job situation that is most likely demeaning and dysfunctional, if not flat-out abusive. I will also go into whether or not Buddhism in America is reserved for the wealthy. I'm quite excited!!
