The Working Class
There are hard working people all over the world trying to make a living; some trying to simply survive in life. Hard work comes in various shapes, sizes, and types of jobs. Individuals may perceive one job more challenging than others; but at the end of the day, no one could really know what that individual experiences in a single work day.
The Working Class is a personal project to document individuals who work hard throughout the world. Despite the large distances between the various cultures, the common theme of hard work is prevalent with all human beings.
