Original book introduction: In Work Won't Love You Back, Sarah Jaffe, a preeminent voice on labor, inequality, and social movements, examines this "labor of love" myth—the idea that certain work is not really work, and therefore should be done out of passion instead of pay. Told through the lives and experiences of workers in various industries—from the unpaid intern, to the overworked teacher, to the nonprofit worker and even the professional athlete—Jaffe reveals how all of us have been tricked into buying into a new tyranny of work.

#2
Maloney, a middle-class theater artist, had a baby girl in 2018. Her partner left them both shortly after. She moved to Sheffield to be closer to her sister, but found herself lonely and isolated.

Marriage, for its first few centuries, had little to do with love. Today, the ideal of marriage-for-love brings with it its own mystifications about work.

The family-wage ideal, which was promoted by the American New Deal, allowed white workers to aspire to have a wife and children while still working full-time, which was rare before the New Deal.

The traditional family we know today was not the norm for much of human history, and was not created by a traditional family. It was a result of a compromise between capital and labor, and was shaped largely by socialist
