Roberts’ 1 Thing Was To Save Obamacare. What’s Yours?

Thursday is a great day to do that 1 thing you don’t want to do but also don’t want to continue thinking about doing.

My 1 thing today is kind of fun: I have to schedule my first haircut in an entire year. I go to this little, cheerful place that’s a 40 minute walk away but at which I’ve only had good experiences.

I will, of course, keep in mind Nicole’s recent post about how hair salons are almost as bad as nail salons. On the other hand, Forbes recently came out with a list of America’s Least Stressful Jobs and hair stylist was #1. So who really knows what to think. Maybe stylists are exploited but not in a stressful way? How does that make sense? As Mike put it, “Also, aren’t you stressed out that you’re making $23,000?”

Forbes’ conclusions might also well be suspect: “Seamstress” makes their list too. Tell that to the workers at the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory, buddy.

What’s your 1 thing?
