The Job Meltdown
Hi my name is TClough, are you tired of your job? OF COURSE YOU ARE IT’S A NEVER ENDING NIGHTMARE OF RIGOROUS AND MONOTONOUS TASKS THAT SUCK THE LIFE OUT OF YOU. BUT YOU don’t have to feel that way when going into work when I discuss the workforce in the closest thing YOU will get to an “anti-work” podcast. Follow and listen with me on The Job Meltdown in most places you get podcasts. Don’t work too hard out there!
The Job Meltdown
Episode 4 - Hours
Slow down there friend! This is an episode regarding the hours that workers face. Have you ever wondered why it's called the 9-5? Where did breaks come from? Aside from my really terrible analogy on slavery...come enjoy some thoughts on the working hours we have today.
