  1. Why do we have to get a 9-5 job it’s not even worth it I mean working around 8 hours for like 100 bucks or less is kinda lol not worth

  2. Well that was surprisingly balanced and sensible. Also, a shift away from the usual, tedious TED style of presentation; finally!

  3. At first, both parents worked out of the home, they chose to stay with us. When we moved, my mom worked at an office because she wanted to change her job.
