By definition, if you treat me well "enough", I'm already satisfied. That's a silly proposition.

- spywaregorilla 5y agoIf your bidding isn't pleasant enough to keep me happy then you're not treating me well enough. The constraint, as defined, is on the master.
- lovemenot 5y agoYou have made a tautology. It's moot. Coercion isn't all about carrots.
- jaas 5y agoI think you are missing the “according to me” (the person you are working for) part of the sentence. In this thought experiment, like the rat, you have no say in what constitutes being treated “well enough.”
