Session
A Short Talk About Working And Not Working And How To Waste Your Time Proficiently
This talk will be a whistle stop tour of Jon's influences, infatuations, experimentations and revelations.
Jon will entertain and embarrass, divulge and dissect, reflect and revolt over the last ten years of his successful career and explain why he's doing all he can to make sure the next ten years will be different.
It's a talk about work and life. You only have one life and you'll probably end up working for most of it, which is kind of tragic.
