About this listen

How we define work needs to change today. Work Sucks, But I Like It is a show that challenges the narrow way we’ve come to define work. Most people answer the question, “What do you do?” with a job title—but that barely scratches the surface of human potential. This podcast digs deeper as success in our work is not about good luck, it's good "skills".


Tony is a Quality Manager in the aerospace industry, columnist writer for Thermal Processing Magazine, and 500RYT Yoga Teacher. He is currently pursuing his PhD in I/O Psychology and is the author of "The Impression of a Good Life: Finding Your Song and Dance" and "Don't Let Life Pass You By: Win the Game of Work and Play".

    What if work isn’t about the paycheck—but about purpose?
