Working: People Talk About What They Do All Day and How They Feel About What They Do is a 1974 nonfiction book by the noted oral historian and radio broadcaster Studs Terkel.
This is a book showing the meaning of work for different people under different circumstances which can be different for all people. The meaning of work changes from person to person. This book also reflects his general ideology which is work can be difficult but still it does has motivation. It is an exploration of what makes work meaningful for people in all walks of life: from Lovin' Al the parking valet, to Dolores the waitress, from the fireman to the business executive, the narratives move constantly between mundane details, emotional truths and existential questioning.
