Do you really think a factory worker doing 996 isn't constantly moving/making something? Because if so, then you've clearly never done any factory work, in the US or otherwise, those jobs are nonstop work, even if it is menial work.
- aeyes 4y agoWorking factory is mind numbing in some ways but a lot of things that burn you out just don't exist: Politics, context switching, firefighting, changing priorities, working irregular hours to get project out of the door, meetings, Slack chats or phonecalls... I love nonstop work, the problem is that a lot of times I have to unblock problems, stop to talk to other people, there are dependencies or things are on fire so a lot of time is spent busy waiting. It is work but it is not rewarding and you don't actually get much done.
