    I’ll be honest, I move around these only by the amount of work I got. If I got some steady work to be doing im frame 1, if all the stuff on my plate needs to go to validation/testing I get bored and the days become more tiring, not less.

    I had a job that had few benefits but the work was interesting and i had full control over it. Now my job has good benefits but the work is repetitive and circular and mostly diplomacy between coworkers. Both are shit. If capitalism has made anything clear its that we are producing in excess of any possible demand to deny people the use of their bodies. Anyways, the work week should be like 6 hours, maybe 8 with two breaks and an hour lunch.

      Realistically less than a quarter of people need to work (assuming our modern standards for time and tech and consumerism, we should clearly spread that work out to more than just those few people and improve our culture), tops. The rest is busy work to keep people down and desperate.

        “Less than a quarter”," 20% of the current standard legal basis for ‘full time’ work". I think, as long as we’re talking averages, medians and autonomy here then we’re in quite close agreement 😁
