>>25554547 i do. i like to be able to read a book in the garden if it's sunny. i like to cook quality meals every day. i like to be able to partake in various side projects or learning activities. i don't see how i could work 160 hours per month. 120 already seems like a lot. do you think i should try to negotiate with this new ceo to get 120h at 3k which would still be below my current hourly rate? this would at least still be a better hourly rate than what the previous company has paid me.

>>25554547 I assumed 70 hours per month, or about 18 hours per week. So part-time work.
Bernd Mon, 03 Mar 2025 13:43:01 GMT No. 25554581
>>25554567 >>25554547 yeah, 70 per month is weird here it's normally 0.25, 0.5 or 0.75 part time out of 160 per month

I'd look for another job tbh. But so long as you work as a part-timer, you're going to suffer this sort of instability. Employers won't feel like they owe you any respect. The trick is to get a full-time job where you don't have much work. That does mean you waste time in the office, but you can use that time to lurk kc and other stuff you'd do on a computer. It's still relaxing for the mind.

>>25554590 i don't see how i could realistically be actually productive for more than 4 - 6h every day. i suspect that people with full time jobs actually do around 3 - 4 hours of productive work per day and the rest is spent idling around the office. however i work from home so i can't idle around the office and count this as working. i'd much rather do what i have to do in the minimal amount of time required and call it a day. also what if the implicit assumption with this full time offer is that i would be working on "office terms" meaning i would be allowed to idle around during work time. this is a posibility, right? but i would feel like i am cheating in such a situation. i much rather would have my work priced realistically and be able to spend my time efficiently.

Bernd Mon, 03 Mar 2025 15:50:56 GMT No. 25555320 >>25555341
>>25555274 So the CEO is changing some policies that would reduce your pay except he offers you a different contract to get around that which actually pays you more, but you're too autistic to take it?

Bernd Mon, 03 Mar 2025 19:01:51 GMT No. 25556699
>>25556417 but what if they require me to be twice as productive as I have been so far with 70 hours? that would make sense from them, right? if i work 70 hours now than with 160 hours i should be twice as productive. even though currently i give away my most productive time during the day to this company so it would be hard to achieve that.

Are you not full time? Full time will give you the ability to take a mortgage and build a home if that's your thing. Banks usually won't loan easily to casuals, contractors or self employed.
