Reading Smoke Gets in Your Eyes: And Other Lessons from the Crematory by Caitlin Doughty. It's about her experiences as a 23-year-old crematory operator. Excellent so far. |

nut posted:I finished Breaking Things at Work by Gavin Mueller yesterday which starts with the Luddites but argues that the struggle directly between the worker and the work they do has always included sabotage up to today. instead of trying to push some idealistic instructions for change it looks at what people actually do and have always done and build some cohesive insight out of it. it was very enjoyable, is short, and is v fun to learn about some of the ways workers rebel against their workplaces. Thanks, I just bought this and incidentally a poster about the Luddite movement has been on its way to my house for like a week now!

A bit dated and twee as a result but good nonetheless I have a collection of his stuff but I've really only read High Rise and that one about the people that inhabit an abandoned median in the middle of a highway? They were pretty enjoyable though. The High Rise movie wasn't bad either. Man, I LOVED The Road but the movie was terrible. |
