Work email ban after hours in New York City may become law

One wonders how anyone ever managed to find opportunities to display merit before the advent of the smartphone.

That’s the glory of the free market baby.
Always pushing for better.

Mmmmm, more better thank you.



In the future may we never look directly at each other, and may we never be unproductive at our jobs for a single second of the day.

Yes, HM - you’ve nailed it. The problem with our society is we’re a bunch of workaholics with no idle time whatsoever. That’s precisely why no one can name a single successful social media platform.

Who has time to browse when all we do is work, work, work?

We all pine for the easier days of yesteryear, when all we had to do was some light agricultural tasks for the lord of the manor.

Pffft.

oh I agree.

Drop the smart phone.
Don’t work the high stress, time sensitive job.
No one is forcing you

What if FB created a product for companies to make an internal social network that integrates with work emails and a work phone? Then the millennials would check their work email every ten minutes, no?

Give them special pixel awards for cutest selfies and hold contests for the best meal photos.

If humans had 500 year lifespans a lot of people on this forum would be getting their asses kicked by their great great great great great great great grandfathers for being a bunch of whining, simpering, little turds.

[Speaker to Animals]

Yeah, that guy for me would be a hardcore mofo. I cannot live up to that guy.

Pffft.

You are right, our idle time sucks ass too now, enthralled as we are to a semi-reflective brick containing a curated universe of digital unreality, needy self-promotion, and advertisements. Might as well answer work emails.

Yeah right. That stupid old faggot would be convinced I was a warlock by my ability to produce fire from the palm of my hand, and he would leave me the fuck alone.

So say we all.

Don’t have to live up to him though, just reflecting on him while assessing our current situation is enough to lend some much-needed perspective to “first world problems”.

Monte out there in his mechanically powered house, juggling for lulz and bemoaning the fate of food secure cubicle dwellers in temperature controlled high-rises who may be “forced” to read something after 5pm.

Lord almighty!

In Monte's defense, there were plenty of jongluers 500 years ago, and they probably mocked the climbers trying to prove their value by being at the Laird's beck and call 24/7 as well.

The more things change, amirite?
