★★★★★★★★★★★★
Can you imagine working over 17 hours a day, seven days a week? Thousands of foreign domestic workers in Taiwan do it every day, with some being on call 24 hours a day and performing household chores that are not a part of their jobs.
1. foreign domestic worker 外籍家庭傭工
2. on call 24 hours a day 一天24小時待命
3. perform household chores 做家務事
你能想像一周七天每天工作17個小時以上嗎?台灣每天都有成千上萬的外籍家庭傭工如此,其中一些人每天24小時待命,並且要做不屬於他們工作範圍的家務活。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Foreign domestic workers in Taiwan do not have a weekly mandatory rest day, despite this being a global standard already enforced in Hong Kong and Singapore. According to statistics by the Ministry of Labor (MOL), 34.7 percent of foreign domestic workers did not receive any days off last year.
4. a mandatory rest day 法定休假日
5. day off 休息日
6. the Ministry of Labor 勞動部
台灣的外籍家庭傭工沒有每週的法定休假日,儘管在香港和新加坡已經實施的這項全球標準。根據勞動部(MOL)的統計,去年有34.7%的外籍家庭傭工沒有獲得任何休假日。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
The record is a strike against Taiwan’s achievements in human rights and freedoms for its own citizens, especially stark after the internationally-lauded legalization of same-sex marriage in May, 2019. Compounding the lack of rest days are the long work hours — an average of 17.72 hours a day, according to a separate study commissioned in 2012 by the Executive Yuan’s Research, Development and Evaluation Commission (now part of the National Development Council).
7. a strike against… 對…的打擊、重創
8. human rights and freedoms 人權和自由*
9. internationally-lauded (adj.) 獲國際讚譽的
10. the legalization of same-sex marriage 同性婚姻合法化
11. compound (v.) 使加重,使加劇,使惡化
該記錄是對台灣為自己的公民在人權和自由方面所取得的成就的重擊,特別是在2019年5月國際上稱讚的同性婚姻合法化之後。根據行政院研究,發展和評估委員會(現為國家發展委員會的一部分)在2012年委託進行的另一項研究,外籍移工平均每日工作時數為17.72小時,冗長的工作時數加劇了休息時間的缺乏。

★★★★★★★★★★★★
The lack of rest and even basic privacy can cause mental and emotional strain to workers — effects that have already been reported to the government. A 2013 Control Yuan investigation into human rights issues faced by foreign domestic workers found that the lack of regular days off caused workers to fall into states of anxiety and stress in the long-term, and recommended that employers build “breathing time” for workers into their contracts.
12. basic privacy 基本隱私
13. mental and emotional strain 精神和情感壓力
14. Control Yuan 監察院
15. fall into states of anxiety and stress 陷入焦慮和壓力狀態
監察院
缺乏休息甚至基本隱私都會給工人帶來精神和情感壓力,這種影響已經被通報給政府。 2013年,行政院對外國家庭傭工所面臨的人權問題進行的調查發現,長期缺乏定期休假會導致工人陷入焦慮和壓力狀態,並建議雇主為工人在合同裡建立「透氣時間」。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
On average, foreign domestic workers earn a total monthly salary with overtime amounting to NT$19,927, according to the MOL. In contrast, the average monthly salary for a Taiwanese domestic helper or caretaker in the Taipei area ranges from NT$45,000 to NT$75,000, according to the China Long-term Care Association (中華長照協會).
16. monthly salary 月薪
17. overtime (n.) 加班費*
18. amount (v.) to 達到、總計
19. caretaker 看護人員
根據勞工部的數據,平均來說,外籍家庭傭工的月工資總額為新台幣19,927元。相比之下,根據中華長期照護協會的統計,台北地區的台籍家庭傭工或看護人員的平均月薪在45,000至75,000新台幣之間。
*overtime: https://bit.ly/36MbH60
★★★★★★★★★★★★
About 38 percent of foreign domestic workers in Taiwan have been verbally or physically abused by employers or household members, while less than half seek help, a survey conducted by the Garden of Hope Foundation found.
20. be verbally or physically abused 受到口頭或身體虐待
21. seek help 尋求幫助
希望花園基金會進行的一項調查發現,台灣大約38%的外籍家庭傭工受到雇主或家庭成員的口頭或身體虐待,而不到一半的人尋求幫助。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
About 250,000 migrants work in Taiwanese households, more than 240,000 as caregivers and 1,800 as maids. As shown by 35 percent of respondents, most victims do not seek help after being exploited, physically attacked or even sexually assaulted because they fear losing their job.
22. migrant 移民、移工*
23. caregiver 看護員
24. maid 女傭
25. respondent 受訪者
26. be exploited 被剝削
27. be physically attacked 被人身攻擊
28. be sexually assaulted 被性侵
29. lose one’s job 失去工作
約有25萬移工在台灣家戶裡工作,其中24萬為看護員,1,800為女傭。正如35%的受訪者所表明的,大多數受害者在遭受剝削、人身攻擊甚至性侵後都不會尋求幫助,因為他們擔心失去工作。
*emigration, immigration, migration 的區別: https://bit.ly/36YcP6v
★★★★★★★★★★★★
We need to provide better conditions and treatment for those who come thousands of miles to care for our elderly and the sick. It is the least we can do to thank them for their help.
30. provide better treatment 提供更好的待遇
31. the elderly and the sick 老人和病人
32. the least we can do 我們至少能做到
我們需要為來千里而來照顧我們老人和病人的外籍看護提供更好的條件和待遇。這至少是我們為感謝他們的幫助所該做的。

【腦中小劇場 第53場 歷經腥風血雨後的記憶傷痕】
「今早八點,本市北區一處工地突然發生氣爆,初步懷疑是下水道沼氣引發事故。據目擊民眾表示,氣爆當時人孔蓋瞬間噴飛,火勢隨即竄出,造成四名工人臉部四肢不等面積的灼傷,傷患三人意識清醒,另一人意識模糊,現場一片狼藉,由於爆炸威力強大,導致附近商家與診所均受波及,幸無其他民眾傷亡...」
【事件發生之時】
這是三個多月前的新聞,我移開手機頁面,慢慢將視線轉向眼前的男子。阿良是這次意外的受害者,但他不是那些身負重傷的工人,也不是行經現場的路人或診所裡的患者,新聞沒給他版面,事發當時他甚至不在現場,而是在兩條街以外的地方。當時的他剛送完孩子上學,在路邊嗑光最愛的古早味蛋餅,突然間遠處傳來爆炸聲,他不知該望向何方,於是坐上車,關掉臨停號誌,繫上安全帶,然後──
一塊人孔蓋筆直地插進擋風玻璃。
如果能用數字呈現,他很確定自己跟死亡的距離大概是20公分,20公分比兒子的塑膠尺還長,感覺上卻比兩公分還短。等他回過神,才發現自己迎接死亡的動作有兩個,一個是把頭轉向車門,一個是用手護住副駕駛座。他的臉緊貼左側車窗,如果照平常的駕駛位置,他的天靈蓋應該跟擋風玻璃的下場一樣。他不知道他這姿勢維持了多久,只聽到有人用手機拍照的聲音,鏡頭裡的他被快門定格,現實中的他則被那20公分的距離定格。
當時他的右臉還卡了些玻璃屑,下車後,他抖掉身上的碎玻璃,打給警方及保險公司,然後和老婆報平安,到目前為止,他覺得自己的每個動作都是被搖控完成的。他聽不見任何聲音,只感受到路面的震動,突然間他開始狂吐,然後抱頭痛哭,他一直以為是自己怕死,後來才發現,他是慶幸副駕駛座的兒子已經去上學。
阿良說,人孔蓋飛進來那一刻,超像《不可能的任務》(Mission: Impossible)的最後一幕,一陣爆炸阿湯哥跳上車廂,直昇機墜落在軌道上,螺旋槳尖端慢慢停在他的面前。只是電影會暗幕,觀眾會離場,阿湯哥不會有任何創傷,整件事有明確的結束時間,但自己的記憶卻彷彿沒有終點。
這就是電影與現實的距離,雖然同樣都是20公分。
【回到事發現場】
如果可以,將時間倒轉回到事發當天,想像阿良的腦袋有個透明頭罩,然後再把時間調慢十倍,於是就會清楚地看到:
在人孔蓋由遠而近,準備撞擊擋風玻璃前,阿良看見一顆不斷擴大的黑點,黑點透過視網膜傳向視覺神經,接著傳到視丘(thalamus)。視丘負責整合各類感官訊息,可以把它想成像一個不太會抱怨的行政秘書,它將不同單位的信息彙整完畢後,分別轉給杏仁核(amygdala)與大腦皮質(cerebral cortex),此時傳輸路徑一分為二。杏仁核路徑又稱「情緒路徑」,作用是感受情緒後做出即時反應;大腦皮質路徑則稱「認知路徑」,作用是對外界刺激進行細緻的分析與判斷,再傳給杏仁核,做出合宜的應對。
杏仁核位於邊緣系統,是掌管情緒的重要單位,負責辨識與解釋。於是,當杏仁核辨識出人孔蓋是一個「威脅」之後,它會閃出紅光,立刻下達指令給下視丘(hypothalamus)。下視丘是人體的「軍備庫房」,儲存各種彈藥武器來保護人體,於是,當杏仁核的紅燈一閃,紅色電流通過下視丘,便會釋放壓力荷爾蒙,包括腎上腺素與皮質醇(cortisol),同時啟動交感神經作用。於是,心跳便會開始加速,像個救命的泵浦,把血液往重要器官傳送,接著用力吸進氧氣、肌肉瞬間緊繃、腸胃持續翻滾,而這場動員,全是為了抵抗外界的威脅。可以應戰,也可以棄逃,不管衝或縮(fight-or-flight response),身體都會幫你做好策應。
這條路徑,通常會在一秒內完成傳輸。
經過杏仁核辨識,確認威脅過強,阿良選擇棄逃,但他來不及解開安全帶,於是血液往上半身集中,以洪荒之力將頭撇向另一側,成功為自己續命。可惜的是,人一旦腦充血或面對突如其來的危機,通常會讓「情緒路徑」接管大腦,一切由杏仁核說了算,「認知路徑」只能退居二線。也因此,才會時常看到有人在電視螢幕前哭著說我太衝動、現在很後悔之類的話。於是,大腦皮質雖然幫阿良處理後續流程,卻無法幫他在日後面臨威脅之際恢復理智。
活下來,成了創傷的起點。
【在事件之後……】
幾天後,阿良走過公園時,忽然側身撲向路旁的草叢,但飛過他眼前的並不是人孔蓋,而是一片飛盤。那片飛盤彷彿解開了某種封印,阿良就此被喚醒,於是他不敢再開車,即便搭公車也要戴耳塞,因為他受不了輪胎壓過人孔蓋的聲音,那聲音會讓窗外出現逐漸擴大的黑點,而他只能閉上眼。糟糕的是,黑點不僅會穿過他的眼皮,還會穿透他的夢境。他時常被驚醒,卻無法跟太太重述事發經過,他腦中只有不斷閃回的片段,包括鐵片撞擊玻璃的聲音、蛋餅的味道、碎玻璃灑在臉上的刺痛感,還有兒子在車窗外說再見的臉。
於是,他選擇避開蛋餅店,避開熟悉的巷口,避開送孩子上課的機會,也避開下班後的聚會。因為,巷口爆米香的巨響、柏油路面的震動和玻璃杯互相撞擊的聲音,都會瞬間把他拖回當天的駕駛座,在動彈不得的情況下,再度跟死神打照面。他憂鬱,也覺得自己超沒用,但只要能躲回房間,吞下藥丸,防堵人孔蓋穿過夢的邊界就好,他不需要跟這段記憶爭輸贏。
以上這些症狀,正是典型的創傷後壓力症(post-traumatic stress disorder,PTSD)。
【創傷後壓力症】
創傷事件的威力在於,即便不傷及肉體,如影隨形的恐懼也會隔山打牛,讓大腦產生「誤判」。於是就可以看到,那天當飛盤飛近阿良眼前時,他的杏仁核再度閃出紅光,但由於先前的人孔蓋威脅過於強烈,導致辨識系統變得異常敏感,杏仁核一下化身高敏感族。為了避免二度傷害,它寧可放出誤判的假警報,也不要和外界威脅博奕,於是下視丘收到的是逃跑計劃,而不是接住飛盤。
因此,在不需要逃跑的情形下,阿良的身體又被迫動員了一輪,逐漸失控的杏仁核,一旦經過幽微的暗示便會敲響警鐘,不斷釋放壓力荷爾蒙,它們就像一組疲於奔命的消防隊員,一次又一次趕赴現場卻持續撲空。就心理學而言,這過程便是所謂的「制約現象」,人孔蓋原本是無害的刺激物,然而經過創傷事件之後,它便與「威脅」二字連結在一起,因此一旦接觸與人孔蓋相似的刺激,身體便會自然出現抗壓反應,也就是所謂的「看到黑影就開槍」。
這場荷爾蒙演習讓阿良身心俱疲,他每次都要花費比前一次更久的時間來安撫身體,嚴重影響睡眠品質與工作效率。壓力荷爾蒙不僅會內耗能量,也會間接傷害杏仁核,讓有關創傷的記憶無法連成一線,只剩衝擊強烈的素材,包括畫面、聲音與氣味在腦中不斷迴放。為了不讓杏仁核接收到這些訊息,阿良試圖關掉周圍的訊號來源,最直接的方式就是遠離案發現場與人群,回到自己的房間。
但他不知道,只要創傷記憶還在,所有的逃避都是徒勞,無論是從天而降的人孔蓋、凌晨三點的強震、父親酒後的一巴掌、教堂的爆炸現場或一輛衝進人群的休旅車。不可抗力的天災也好,精心預謀的犯罪也罷,一直到最後才會了解,創傷最可怕的,不是從身上奪走了什麼,而是強加了一段不堪回首的記憶。
【創傷記憶之後的治療】
該如何處理這段創傷記憶呢?根據福艾(Edna B. Foa)與布鲁因(Chris R. Brewin)等人的研究顯示,其中一個作法,就是「重寫一段新的記憶」,讓它與舊有的創傷記憶一起競爭。
因此,認知重建、暴露治療或正念療法(mindfulness),都是臨床心理師會採取的方案。認知重建,是指讓案主「重述事發過程」,但不是為了折磨對方,而是像「仔細檢查傷口,避免對傷勢的胡亂臆測」,畢竟人常用想像力來加深恐懼。逐步回憶,讓創傷記憶重新連成一線,反而能幫助案主檢視故事的漏洞及對事件的扭曲想法。此外,也會進行放鬆練習,無論是腹式呼吸或覺察身體反應,都能使自律神經逐漸恢復平靜。這些作法強調的是「先前的經驗確實很可怕,但我現在很安全」,將過往與當下做出區隔,而這也通常是創造新記憶的絕佳素材。當然,這不會是一段舒適的旅程,但只要願意相信自己的身體,記憶會留在過去,療程會成為一場壯遊。
創傷記憶可能是一場事故的終點,卻也可能是一段犯行的起點,根據弗賴貝格(Selma Fraiberg)及馬隆(Johanna C. Malone)等人的研究顯示,曾經歷兒童虐待而導致創傷後壓力症的母親,容易引發孩子的無助與恐懼感。謝克特(Daniel S. Schechter)等人的研究也發現,曾受家暴或有創傷後壓力症候群病史的母親所養育的孩子在說故事時,可能會比一般孩子更容易聚焦在災難或危險的情節上,態度也較具敵意。
而身受家暴創傷的孩童,日後或將以暴行還諸他人或下一代,這可能是他們用來「對抗創傷記憶」的方式。遺憾的是,他們創造的並不是提醒自己早已脫離險境的記憶,而是以另一段施虐記憶,來與記憶中的施虐者抗衡,藉以證明自己不會再被對方壓制,於是暴力傳承暴力,惡意滋長惡意。
然而,有朝一日我們會明白,記憶是一種選擇的過程。選擇增加施暴的記憶和過往的創傷較勁,記憶就會變成一種提醒。選擇相信大腦的彈性,努力把自己留在當下,記憶就會變成一種證明。雖然傷疤一直都在,但就像派特森(Per Petterson)在《外出偷馬》(Ut og stjaele hester)所說的:
痛不痛的事,我們真的可以自己決定。

Taking a bath is a natural routine after "sleeping" and "eating" in Japanese people's minds. It's a routine task. In particular, soaking in a hot tub is a unique part of Japanese culture.
And that's why we have onsen in Japan.
Whether you like it or not, everyone goes on a trip to a hot spring resort at least once in their lives.
Onsen are a unique part of Japanese culture.
Some people are attracted by the smell of sulfur and others
taking a bath together with a large group of people and literally having "naked company" can make you feel like you've grown closer to your friends.
When you soak naked in a hot spring and let out a breath of air, you can talk about things you wouldn't normally talk about.
It takes the edge off! and is a stress relief!
Bathing in nature while bathing with negative ions in the air is more effective based on scientific evidence.
And a "hot water cure" used for medical treatment is another thing even though there is no medical evidence to support this, but the effects of hot springs on the human body are wonderful. There are diseases that cannot be cured by doctors, but if you are in a hot spring...
I am a hot spring YouTuber.
I love hot springs.
Why?
Because it is a place where I could take a relaxing bath with my favorite family.
It was a strange coincidence to take a bath in a mixed bathing hot spring.
Of course you feel the gaze of the opposite sex, and you may also feel the embarrassment.
I'm not saying that I don't want to be seen, but after all, hot springs are an important part of Japanese culture, and I think it's important to keep in mind the importance of good manners when taking a bath.
Taking a bath naked is something that Japanese people have been trained to do since they were children.
More and more mixed bathing hot springs are prohibiting bathing without clothing.
It is no longer possible to open a new mixed bathing facility in today's Japan. Therefore, I would like you all to protect and support the existing bathing facilities.I would be very happy if my videos gives reasons for this.
I hope that this will be one of the reasons why a girl who just loves hot springs will be able to experience the Japanese culture of hot springs.

When you soak naked in a hot spring and let out a breath of air, you can talk about things you wouldn't normally talk about.
It takes the edge off! and is a stress relief!

And a "hot water cure" used for medical treatment is another thing even though there is no medical evidence to support this, but the effects of hot springs on the human body are wonderful. There are diseases that cannot be cured by doctors, but if you are in a hot spring...
I am a hot spring YouTuber.
I love hot springs.
Why?
Because it is a place where I could take a relaxing bath with my favorite family.
It was a strange coincidence to take a bath in a mixed bathing hot spring.
Of course you feel the gaze of the opposite sex, and you may also feel the embarrassment.
I'm not saying that I don't want to be seen, but after all, hot springs are an important part of Japanese culture, and I think it's important to keep in mind the importance of good manners when taking a bath.
Taking a bath naked is something that Japanese people have been trained to do since they were children.
More and more mixed bathing hot springs are prohibiting bathing without clothing.
It is no longer possible to open a new mixed bathing facility in today's Japan. Therefore, I would like you all to protect and support the existing bathing facilities.I would be very happy if my videos gives reasons for this.
I hope that this will be one of the reasons why a girl who just loves hot springs will be able to experience the Japanese culture of hot springs.
