Over the past several years, my "Working in Ghana" Project has collected
about 100 narratives from Ghanaian workers who tell about their jobs,
their co-workers, and how their work affects their personal and family
life.  An additional 30 narratives have been collected from expatriates
living and working in Ghana. A description of the "Working in Ghana" 
project and complete texts of over 50 of the narratives are available on
the Internet.
