The Orthodox Jewish community has to hear this guy's message. >> When you going to get a real job, buddy? I just want to know, when did making money from a place not be considered a job? If you're making money and working towards your goals, that's all that matters. >> I was talking to a guy from Williamsburg a couple of weeks back and I asked him what he does for a living. And he kind of looked at the ground and looked back up at me and he said, "I drive a bus." And I could tell that he was almost embarrassed or ashamed of what he does for work. I don't know the story that was going on inside of his head, but the story that was going on inside of my head was "Wow, this guy works an honest job." And in a real way, I actually kind of envy him. He probably goes to work at 8:30 a.m. and he's probably done work at 4:30 p.m. And when he shuts off the engine of that bus, he gets to shut off the engine of his work brain. And if you measure the happiness of a bus driver versus the happiness of a billionaire, I'm not sure at the end of the day inside who's actually happier. We have to normalize working regular jobs in our community to make ends meet.
