Welcome!

Thank you for subscribing to the Re:working newsletter.

I'm writing a book about work in modern Britain. The book will be based on interviews with 100 or so people from all sorts of places and with all sorts of jobs.

This newsletter is a companion to that book project. In each edition, I'll take a theme or an idea from one of my interviews and throw it into a wider context. For instance:

• What's the relationship between corruption in UK police forces and Soviet factories?
• Why do we do more paperwork than ever before?
• What role does banter play in a workplace?

I hope that this newsletter will be a welcome presence in your inbox. You can read all previous editions for free on my website.

And if you have any questions, recommendations, suggestions, concerns and/or feedback, let me know at charlie@re-working.co.uk.

Take care,

Charlie
