holy shit, i'm employed

Barring unforseen friction or my premature demise, i'm pretty sure i just got a union job in Boston starting september 27. I've been unemployed for four months now, so the whole thing feels a little surreal, and i'm really nervous about going to a city i don't know where no one i know lives to do hard, challenging work, while simultaneously attempting to apply to graduate school. But i'm also excited to be doing this kind of work again on a really exciting campaign, and leaving my parents' apartment, and getting paid. In honor of me finding a job, today's songs are all work or union related.



Dead Prez, "w-4"

Kanye West, "Spaceship"

Ralph Chaplin (and Local 34,) "Solidarity Forever"

Dr. Dre featuring Alyssa Rosenberg and Eminem, "Forgot About Pay"

Eric B. and Rakim, "Paid In Full"

alternate: Franz Ferdinand, "Jacqueline"
