What evidence do you see that the low wage employees are angry about the
circumstances in which they find themselves (excluding Ehrenreich)? Why are they angry? Is this
anger justified? Are some people more likely to become angry about manual labor than
others? Why?

From the text:

Almost everyone is eager to talk, and I soon become a walking repository of complaints. No one gets paid overtime at Wal-Mart, I'm told, though there's often pressure to work it. Many feel the health insurance isn't worth paying for. There's a lot of frustration over schedules, especially in the case of the evangelical lady who can never get Sunday morning off, no matter how much she pleads.
