Ep 406 - Work or Die, Part One (PREVIEW)
from Nostalgia Trap
I got my first job when I was 15 years old, working at a Pumpkin Patch on a local farm, and it's been all downhill from there. I'm partly joking, but the working world has never been a place of maximum success and happiness for me, and in this episode I try to come to terms with my own job history as a way of exploring the pressures that consume many of us: bosses, bills, weird co-workers, and the dark feeling that American life is often a big depressing rip-off. I've got stories to tell from a lifetime of shitty jobs, from manning the bakery case at Marie Callender's as a teenager to dealing with obnoxious D-list celebrities as a production assistant in Hollywood. As a wise man once said, "work sucks, I know." Here's a few slices of how I found that out.
