It should work both for those with valuable skill and for those with low skill fungible job. BTW current median tenure for food preparation workers is around 2 years. It works not for all occupations, but it's not a small portion of people too.
I think the fact that they are not doing this shows, that they value money more, than free time.
- glesica 12y agoFood preparation, and other low-skill workers can't afford to do it, 30% less income for most of them is below what they need to survive. It isn't that they "value money more", it's that they have no choice (well, really they do value money more, but it is because they value not suffering from malnourishment). Additionally, for most people who receive some kind of public assistance (which many low-skill workers do) being out of work means losing that assistance. So once again, it doesn't work for that group of people.
- monort 12y agoMedian wage for food preparation is $19000. 30% less is still above poverty line. They can survive, but they prefer to earn $5700 more per year and have less free time. And situation is the same with programmers, only numbers are different. People think they value free time, but they act as if they value money more.
