美媒：赴外埠打工华人似候鸟迁徙 自得其乐|候鸟|洛杉矶|先生_新闻资讯

　　原标题：美媒：赴外埠打工华人似候鸟迁徙 自得其乐

　　中新网6月3日电 据美国侨报报道，美国洛杉矶被称为天使之城，在这座风景秀丽、璀璨夺目的海滨城市周围有一群华人，他们像候鸟一样，有着自己的生存方式和规律法则，而实际上他们是身处社会底层的打工族，可以叫他们“候鸟天使”。

　　候鸟天使的共同特点就是无牵无挂、行动自由，英文水平有限，也无一技之长，同时对生活也没有特别高的要求，夹在缝隙里求生存。

　　林先生，28岁，来自中国山东青岛，餐馆前台老手，他把自己的生活按照每三个月来划分，三个月到洛杉矶周边打一次工，赚些收入，三个月回到洛杉矶过自己的生活。林先生目前短期居住在亚凯迪亚市表弟家里。他说：“客厅的沙发够我一个人睡了，我住一两个月就走，不需要再浪费钱租房子。” 林先生没有固定住所，常为了工作迁移到不同的地方，但他所到之处最多不能超过4个小时的车程，不然就超出了他的规划范围，他视洛杉矶为自己的家。

　　林先生说：“我今年来到美国是第5 个年头了，单身，也没什么牵挂，家里也不需要我汇钱给他们。我来美国之前在青岛有一份还不错的工作，做网站数据分析的，差不多一个月也能拿个5000元人民币， 要不是家人想让我来美国，我压根就没想来。刚来美国就有点后悔，我的英文不好，也只能去餐馆做工，相对来说，收入和成本各方面比较划算，找的好的话，一个月可以挣个3500元到4000元，还包吃包住，这些钱也都能装到腰包里了。”

　　林先生说自己找的这些餐馆的工作都是来自洛杉矶周边的小城市，那里的餐馆待遇又好，而且也不用自己租房子。但是如果在洛杉矶找餐馆的工作，首先是不好找，另外主要是赚的钱都拿去交房租和车贷款，也存不住钱。

　　林先生说他每次去不同的餐馆打工都能碰到像他一样的人，他们成为短暂的朋友，朝夕相处两三个月之后，就有可能再也见不到对方了。他说：“其实，我可以选择我自己的生活，也不是必须要这样一直活着，只是目前觉得没什么压力，也没什么想要的。但是，我这段时间突然想要稳定了，我计划过一个月再去找一份工资高的工作，做个半年存点钱，回来跟别人投资个餐厅，以后就不这么来回跑了。”
