Question

Ehrenreich learned if you have a low-wage job and demonstrate that you “know too much” or “do your job too well,” the result tends to be that

A.
you will be quickly promoted to a higher-level position
B.
your manager will exploit your competency by assigning you more difficult tasks and more work
C.
you will be seen as a threat to management and demoted to a lower position or less-popular job
D.
you will soon leave your job for another one that challenges you more
E.
you will be much happier than if you had a boring job that paid more

Answer 1

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Seems the most reasonable.

He has a negative tone, that rules out A.

Since he is talking about a low wage job, that rules out C.

People do not get jobs to challenge themselves, but to support themselves, and they also want interesting jobs. That rules out D and E.

So I'm assuming it's B, but I don't have the full text.
