Work is a humiliation ritual

Most of you could be done your jobs in a few hours of the time it takes, the rest, well its likely doing some mundane task. Having to be at a job for a portion of your day every day is a humiliation ritual meant dehumanize you. It is meant to make you feel like a cog in a machine and to be a way to remove free time away from you.

There are some jobs where there are things being done actively, and there is a need for many hours, but even those jobs can not pay enough to live comfortably.

All in all, it is a way to remind you of your slavery day in and day out.
