[quote=Anonymous][quote] "Why do you want to end work? 
Because the modern day workplace is one where you are expected to work despite your own individual needs or desires. Work puts the needs and desires of managers and corporations above and beyond workers, often to the point of abuse through being overworked and underpaid." [/quote]

I fully support reforms.  But this sort of statement indicates that the movement is for white collar employees who have options. There is a lot about American industry that requires schedules and showing up in person for designated periods. Even in some white collar professions, such as education, the needs of society require set hours regardless of your personal needs or desires.

It has been interesting to see how flexible jobs have become as a result of the pandemic. But people working at the grocery store or operating trains and buses or fixing your vehicles still have to show up in person at the appointed time in order to make the world go round. There hasnt been any change for them. [/quote]
