One sentence from the reading that made an impression on me would be "work is so central to human existence that we hardly know what to do without it".

One sentence from my response: "There are so many incredible teachers that I've met throughout my years working multiple jobs to be financially stable" and even in the reading it said "an elementary school teacher who spends her weekends working a second job at a local Hardee's".
