"The only major differences between a slave and a worker is that a worker is only a slave at work while a slave is a slave twenty-four hours a day" I'm not a fan of the slave comparison in this context because the word has meaning beyond 'loss of self-determination'. Moving beyond that, though - it is certainly untrue that a worker only loses self-determination while at work. What you do, and where you are, during the most productive hours of your life fundamentally shapes you as a person. It impacts on where you live. It impacts on activities outside of work, because units of time are not fungible. You're less rested, you're restricted to things that can happen after 5pm, etcetera.
