Nobody wants to grind for the man, but most of us have to. Gina Tron has clocked into a lot of nonsense which has luckily led to these undeniably relatable poems recalling the details of making other people money in order to survive. Employment is a book about how we actually spend our lives, wrapped in humor and working-class wisdom.
