Automation doesn't necessarily create a single second of leisure. Automation creates more productivity. The results of that, if well distributed among the population, could create leisure. But there's no reason it must be well distributed, and plenty of observational evidence suggests it isn't. If robots do all the necessary work in the future, there's no reason to believe that the benefits of this work won't accrue to the 1% (say "ownership class" if you like) and be sold to the rest of the population at whatever the market will bear. The 1% might then have infinite leisure, while the rest of the population would have to do whatever work they demanded (manservant? parasol carrier? masseuse? plenty of frivolous work can be created) in order to earn money to buy those robot-created goods. That's how modern society is set up, currently. There's little prospect of it changing.
