The idea behind salaried employment is that I'm supposed to put in the time needed to get the job done.
If it takes more than 40 hours a week, I'm supposed to suck it up and deal with it.
But if I finish my work in less than 40 hours, or management doesn't give me 40 hours of work in a given week, I'm stuck sitting in the fucking office with fuck-all to do. But I still need to look busy to justify my place in the company payroll.
Fuck #jobs. I want #basicincome.

@starbreaker The "one for you, two for me" approach - as always!
Of course, the whole system encourages stretching out a 10 minute task to last the morning, so does nothing to increase mystical productivity KPIs.
I'm very lucky in that my management are enlightened, fantastic people. But I remember life before. #BasicIncome has to happen, and ideally before it's absolutely necessary in order to keep society moving.
