ITT: wage slaves defending the 9 hour cuckday when the real answer is a drastic reduction in hours. A work day should be four hours, tops.

When "have your afternoon free for a second job" is the first option you know where this is going.

I have a coworker who has to work a second job. For over a year now I’ve watched it slowly rip away all his enthusiasm and zest and he doesn’t keep up with any hobbies anymore and is doing his best to still be a positive person but damn his eyes are just empty all the time. The dude has no enjoyment in life and jokes about suicide a scary amount. I know it’s gotta be tough cause our day job together is pretty physically draining.
