    People are willing to put in more work for someone else but not willing to put in the work to organize for better wages for themselves. Breaks my heart.

      The article states:

      "It’s not necessarily 40 hours in one office and then 40 hours in another office. That would be virtually impossible and exhausting,” Vicki Salemi, a career expert with Monster. “It sounds more like people for workarounds for two remote jobs, or one remote job and working at a restaurant, at a store on weekends.”

      Doing 2 remote jobs, or two jobs on two different parts of the week seems to be what it is. Not people working 16 hours out of home per day.

        I seriously hope, even 8 hours have adverse effect on human body and mind, and 12 is seriously damaging. 16+ across segment of population is basically genocide.

        Then again, term “full-time” job is used at least two times in that short article. Idk how in USA, but “full-time” is specific term in law in many countries.
