We trace the tangled, unraveling threads of the nine-to-five job — a system once fought for by workers to protect their time but now hollowed out by mass layoffs, gig work, and the relentless hunt for profit. From overemployed remote workers secretly stacking paychecks to delivery drivers risking it all for flexible hours, this story pulls apart the myth of job security and reveals the hidden costs of freedom sold by gig apps and contract deals. Listen as we unpack why companies love to abandon permanent roles, how workers are left paying the price for their own benefits, and what the quiet extinction of the traditional workday means for anyone still trying to trade time for a steady living.
