Comment on Get on my mindset grindset, peasants.
saltesc@lemmy.world 1 year agoYeah, that’s the point of it. Since I have nothing better to do on every weekday, I just work more. Then I can fuck off camping for four days while everyone else keeps working all week.
I’m sure there’s people out there that enjoy the routine of 5/7 days of the week going to work, but I try to avoid as many days not doing what I want as possible, so I will work excessive hours where possible so they get out of the way and free up my week.

The post is not intending to criticize an irregular work schedule on its merits. Indeed, some occupations require an irregular schedule.
The criticism directs at platforms manipulating workers by obfuscating the structure of exploitation through participation in the gig economy.
Note the text, “Working excessive hours isn’t… [just] flex…”

Yeah, I realised that.
My brain was like,
“Working excessive hours isn’t the flex(time) you think it is you exploited.” And then randomly the word “bastard”.
But re-read with my brain set to bad grammar meme setting, I realised it’s like,
"Working excessive hours isn’t the brag you think it is, you exploited idiot "
