I work like 30 hours a week, a lot of which is walking over to the couch and laying down to think for a bit or walking to the kitchen to get a snack and give my eyes a break. What is this lifestylism nonsense?
Facts:
If one of your hobbies is watching tech talks on YouTube, that is not part of your job.
If you have hobby projects you maintain a codebase for outside of work, that is not part of your job.
If you are on call and expected to respond to a crisis at any time of day, you should be getting compensated for those on-call hours.
If you are required to do professional development for work, the cost should be covered by your work and your should be compensated for your time.
If you are not being compensated for hours you are entitled by law to be compensated for, that is wage theft. Your employer is robbing you.
If you make $50k/year for a 40 hour work week and are on call for an extra 80 hours on top of that, you’re being robbed, on average, $273/day. If you’re making $150k/year, that becomes $820/day.
