Damn this thread got brigaded by shitty bosses and deep throaters of the boot. I hope they’re bots because if they want to fellate their employers so bad, I really pity them. I agree OP, any time spent in service to the job should be paid. That includes bio breaks because we’re not robots yet.

A bunch of people having a different opinion from you isn't a "brigade" just because you lack the emotional maturity to deal with opposition.

Comparing disagreement to a “lack of emotional maturity”—especially on a post that has unfortunately shifted almost entirely to opinions—is missing the point. Passing judgement and biases off as fact is not the same as an opinion on the subject matter, it’s not helpful, and not part of this disagreement. As far as I’m concerned, insulting someone for disagreeing is more of “a lack of emotional maturity” than posting your opinion in the first place.

I wouldn’t resort to name calling, but it does feel like a lot of people aren’t considering why someone might have this stance. Many brought the same ideology in equally confusing ways, and that’s just not productive.

I think they have considered why, and they choose to dismiss it as weakness because that's all they really care about: projecting strength and power. If they don't complain about not getting paid for ALL their work-related responsibilities, they will be seen as weak by their employer and might get fired. So they lean in hard. It's a brutal self-perpetuating system that eats people alive.
Anywho, you might be interested in /r/antiwork and /r/workreform if you haven't dropped by already.
