I have no idea how they passed and we accepted this concept of “Salary means we own you and your thoughts and ideas, labor laws basically don’t apply, and you never actually stop working.” Absolutely deranged.
It was probably pitched as such a great thing to employees, too, but I’ve always seen it as a scam.
(No judgment on you personally, of course, if somehow this affords you a good life balance!)
I’m also paycheck-to-paycheck with little in the way of advancement prospects unless one of my creative projects lands. So I’m not exactly writing as a sage of material success or anything 😂.
I do appreciate what little time I have to my own autonomy though. Anything trying to take that from me gets met with stiff resistance.
Pshh. Yeah.
