I've burned another CD for the BFF. I don't think she even owns a CD player anymore, but maybe she can put the disk with her 1990s memorabilia and gaze at it whenever she gets nostalgic for the era of dialup modems and Janet Reno.
I've also created a Spotify playlist and attached it to this post. All the songs have to do with work. Track list follows.
1. "Welcome to the Working Week," Elvis Costello
2. "The Company Way," How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying (original Broadway cast recording)
3. "Fitter Happier," Radiohead
4. "No Surprises," Radiohead
5. "Call It Stormy Monday," BB King and Albert Collins
6. "Hard Times," Gillian Welch
7. "Coal Miner's Daughter," Loretta Lynn
8. "Sixteen Tons," Tennessee Ernie Ford
9. "I'm Working on a Building," Brother Grady Coffee
10. "Joe Worker," The Cradle Will Rock (original 1985 cast recording)
11. "Pirate Jenny," Bea Arthur
12. "I Never Picked Cotton," Johnny Cash
13. "Take a Job," Do Re Mi (1999 original cast recording)
