News at Eleven: [T.S. Eliot] was working full-time

at Lloyds Bank, where he stayed until 1925, and editing the Criterion in the spare moments he didn't have. This tale of time swallowed up, what Eliot calls ‘the prison-like limitation of my time', is one of the two chief themes of the second volume of the Letters. The other is the competitive invalidism the Eliots have instead of a marriage.
