If we cut the bullshit from office jobs we could have everyone doing maybe a day or two’s worth of work and getting the same amount of actually productive stuff done. Get all these newly underemployed office workers to do some actually productive work 2 days a week and then all the construction/manufacturing/frontline workers can work less too.

Imagine no longer being chained to the desk and actually getting to teach kids or help old people or cut trees/replant forests for a bit every week. Actually doing something worthwhile, and maybe even touching some grass.

I love programming but I hate how it’s basically my whole life now.
