Some of my favorite moments of my working life were when I was an hourly worker. There are quiet moments of an hourly worker on break that you never see again when you have a knowledge worker job. I remember sitting in bathrooms reading Jane Eyre. I remember hiding in dark, quiet alleys laughing softly with co-workers. The soft spots of the workplace are hard to find. Take them when you can. You are lucky in that moment, no matter what your wage is.
