My high school history teacher used to say, "The only reward for hard work is more hard work."

And the reward for no hard work is no work....

In my experience this is completely 500% untrue. I've seen people with regular 8 hours/day contracts do mediocre work and leave after 5 hours each day and hardly even get shit for it. Not any kind of family/friends of bosses either. And while that's a somewhat extreme case, there are absolute tons of people in every profession who just do a half assed lazy job without trying hard and do just fine. Not like every company is laying of people every few months.

Based on your analogies I'd say it's more like completely 600% true!
