Work Sucks, But I Like It
**Work can suck—**and this podcast dives into the elephant in the room: the daily grind. From toxic workplaces to those rare moments where we actually feel like we’ve earned our paycheck, we explore how people navigate the chaos of modern work-life balance. Honest, relatable, and sometimes a little cathartic, this show is all about what it really takes to survive (and maybe even thrive) in today’s working world. Tony is a Quality Manager in the aerospace industry and a columnist writer for Thermal Processing Magazine. He is currently pursuing his PhD in I/O Psychology and is the author of "The Impression of a Good Life: Finding Your Song and Dance" and "Don't Let Life Pass You By: Win the Game of Work and Play".
