Depends in how much you view your work as “work”, I guess. In my old job, I used to spring out of bed burning with ideas I wanted to implement, and when you have that freedom to do play with your work, the top down dynamic of “actionable work” quickly falls apart.
In this job, I have less freedoms to play with my work, so I’m with you that 8 hours should be it

I used to work 10-15 hours a day, weekends included, in a small lab. I did not mind it, I felt seen, my boss was happy with my efforts, and I thrived in that atmosphere.
I now work completely remote for significantly more money, spending 10-16 hours indoors interacting with nobody. It’s hell. My extra hours are unseen. I barely see the sun. My weight is ballooning.
My point: RFH is great for people with families or partners, or anyone who has essentially a settled home life. But for single people, RFH is torture.
I do 100% agree that it should be a choice, and not a mandate to RTO. I’d take it in a heartbeat if it was an option

I value my time with my mum, and don’t get to spend much time with her, so I suck it up. But barely. Just barely.

thanks for this – it’s definitely got a smaller range, but a good alternative to amazon

I was expecting no results, but apparently the stores are still there, unused.

To theirs credit, the part about watching their mother suffer was very relatable and felt extremely honest. I guess I was hoping that they would open with something like that instead of talking about their philosophy first. You’re right though, the writer is likely young and I shouldn’t expect so much.

I liked that the writer stuck with clear and simple english instead of flowering up his prose, but I just feel that using borrowed quips and popart philosophy isn’t an honest way to write. It feels more in line with a teen or a young adult trying to find their voice in the words of others (and we’ve all been there)

thank you

This does seem very amateurish (Gladiator, Greenday, “smile through the pain”). These are emo trops. I’d be disappointed to know it’s him.
- Comment on Anon reads the news 1 week ago:
it wasnt the internet that exposed him to the media, it was the police and feds who sold him out to the media. There is no “we did it” here. “They” did it.

You’re right. I’d argue that lemmy has the advantage of not being so popular, and that the mindset is by default more counter-culture than status-quo (otherwise we’d still be on the major sites), so I do think that the people here tend to pile on less… though I do admit that there are plenty of pileons here
- Comment on Anon plays spin the bottle 2 weeks ago:
I think it was more that people were more prone to ask rhetorical questions in guise of actual discussion
