美总统首份工作五花八门：奥巴马当过杂工

　　Richard Nixon: Produce buyer

　　尼克松：采购员

　　Nixon did not come from money.

　　"You could literally say they were dirt poor," said Barbara Perry, a co-chair of the Miller Center Oral History Program at the University of Virginia.

　　Nixon's financial troubles stemmed from the failed lemon ranch his parents owned until 1922. His father then opened a combined grocery store and gas station in Whittier, Calif., where the entire family worked.

　　Nixon would get up every morning before school to go into Los Angeles and check out the available produce selection, said historian Richard Norton Smith.

　　In 1930, Nixon enrolled in Whittier College, and later won a scholarship to Duke University's law school.

　　尼克松家条件不好，甚至可以说是困苦。1922年，尼克松家的牧场破产。随后，父亲用仅剩的家底开了杂货铺和加油站，全家人都在店里帮忙。凌晨4点，尼克松就必须起床，开着家里的卡车去进货，然后才去上学。
