    Weird flex but ok. I work for a state organization and enjoy my career too but I’m not pining to give them more of my time than is necessary.

      It’s a flex to say I don’t work for a corporation to a comment about being ‘a corporate shrill’?

      Some people enjoy their career.

        I absolutely enjoy my career, too. But the point is, with increases in technology and efficiency, we should be able to work 32 hours a week and accomplish the same amount of work as we are doing today in 40, giving that extra day back to ourselves to improve our mental health. I have worked internationally, and I can tell you that Americans are known for being overworked.
