Personally I've been reading a lot of despondent posts on LinkedIn and wanting to lose it on the C-Suite overlords bringing about the AI jobpocalypse, but that's more of a personal doom-scroll daily event because they got me in October -- and not actual literary works. I just ordered "Bullshit Jobs: A Theory" by David Graeber. I'll keep you posted on if it's a good read.

There are a lot of rebuttals to David Graeber's work and the fact that anarchists kept telling me to read it sucks ngl

I'm not reading "Debt". It's more a criticism of specific jobs. Different focus.
