        I wonder what they think work even is. Like I get the sense that they consider "work" literally just a mindset and has nothing at all to do with actually doing a job

          Many of them think that work means "making an effort at a task" and not "if you don't sell your labour you will die."

          Sure, some of them labour for long hours when the mood takes them. But they'll never have to work if the mood doesn't take them.

          Want to take the week off? Fine. Boss doesn't like it? Call Dad and have him explain to boss what will happen to his credit cards. Fired anyway? No problem, 6 months in the alps and then a similar gig at the next company.
