The UW Economics Society presents another week in Twitter (@uWaterlooEcon)!  I know you Waterloo University Students are hungering for something to read.  We have some pretty awesome links found throughout the week so if you are bored or procrastinating you might want to read some of them!  My personal favourites include how people are working too much at work via Harvard Business Review!

My least favourite one (shocker!) is by GOOD Magazine.  I believe it is a clear example of sampling bias but is still a good read nonetheless (pun intended, tehe).

More after the break!
