Intro Generation Overworked

Welcome to GenO (Generation Overworked), a podcast brought to you by Youth Against Sweatshops. Why are so many of us working 60, 70, 80 hours a week? And our lives, friendships and relationships are always suffering and pushed to the side. Meanwhile so many of us are unemployed and underemployed. We face long stretches of having no income of spending hours upon hours, trying to find a job – jobs that both pay too little and demand too much freelance and part-time gigs that we piece together. So even when we aren’t working, our time does not belong to us. How do we try to overcome all this baggage? In the follow episodes, We’ll throw in some analysis and history, and we’ll share what we’ve learned from our on-the-ground organizing to improve working conditions.
