That’s unambitious. I want to be paid for the value my work creates. Time is a finite resource. Trading it for (in all likelihood not enough) money so other people can get rich is a sucker move.
I agree. We will be the first to call out employers who want you to arrive early to load up systems to be ready to take calls at start time. I see this as the same.
I want to get paid for the time I give, nothing more and nothing less.

That’s not what you sign up for, ever except maybe c suite negotiations where you get bonuses based on performance. A job is not a trade of value. It is literally paying you for your time since most jobs are unskilled manual labor you can train on the job.

Yes that is how it is, I was saying how it should be

I want to be paid for getting the job done, not for being a body in a seat for a specific number of hours regardless of how much work there is to do.

Sometimes the job is being available, being a body in a seat.

And often it is not, but still treated that way by managers.
