Something Very Damaging and Senseless (S1E5)
from The Weekly Artifact Hosted by The Weekly Artifact
In this episode, we discuss emotions, the gig economy, dealing with customers as an underpaid employee, and the legacy of Occupy Wall Street. Endnotes: 1) The theory we attributed to Sausurre (4:56) is actually the Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis of Language. 2) We did not technically invent the phrase “minimum wage, minimum effort,” (24:27) but we used it independent of hearing any one else use it and its origins remain unknown to us.
