    最近的几个感慨

     
    1. 拔了生平第一颗牙。美国庸医折腾了我两个多小时,血流成河,苦不堪言。账单吓死人,足够我在国内把所有的牙都拔了、然后换上假牙了,进一步加深了我对美国医院的厌恶。感慨之一:美国的医疗体系是在低效率。
     
    2. 去DMV(美国的车管所?)换驾照。加州政府财政危机,为了削减开支,DMV星期六、星期五不再开门,老汉我只好工作日请假去DMV。加州贵为美国经济最发达地区,且消费税、收入税高的吓死人,居然闹出财政危机,主要是福利开支巨大、政府拥冗。感慨之二:马克思老人家真英明,早早就断言物质不是极大丰富、人民素质不是极高、则共产主义不能实现。
     
    3. BART(湾区的一种类似地铁的交通工具)工人闹罢工,因为待遇太低。待遇有多低?辛苦如清洁工的,一年也才9万多美刀。可怜广大北美猥琐男,读了20多年书,也不比清洁工多赚多少,福利就更差了老鼻子远。闲话一下,清洁工大名叫sanitation engineer,颇具硅谷特色。感慨三:同为资本主义的掘墓人,掘墓的方式怎么就这么不一样呢?
     
    4. 公司开Party。我们部门,总共20来号人,居然来自11个国家 -- 美国、中国、墨西哥、印度、英国、澳大利亚、新加坡、日本、韩国、俄罗斯、阿拉伯。不知道算不算湾区的典型,如果是,最后感慨一下世界人民欢聚在湾区。

    不夸张,搞了2个多小时,光麻药就打了3次。

    牙是一颗普通的大槽牙,不知道咋回事,居然有了条裂缝(像是和人打架斗殴留下的哈),确实是该拔了。

    两个小时?太夸张了吧。我最近一次拔牙也就花了几分钟的事。也许你的牙齿还不至于要拔掉。
