Wonder how much the executive assistant is paid compared to this piece of shit
Back when I was a lib, I read The 4 Hour Work Week, and that was basically the secret, right there, buried underneath about two hundred pages of fluff. Hire an executive assistant from, like, Pakistan, and then make that person do everything for you, pay them nothing, and take all the credit. At the time I was freaked out by the idea of giving a person like that access to my bank account (which had practically nothing inside it anyway). The notion that I would be exploiting someone in the Global South never entered my mind. Apparently you can also do this with coding? People who know more about this, correct me, but again, you can apparently just, like, have an idea, hire coders from Pakistan (sorry, Pakistan) to make it for you, and then just take all the credit (and 99% of the money) for yourself. Fucking bullshit, man!
That reminds of a story of a guy who wrote a Python script to automate his job (basically data entry from what I remember) without telling his employer (obviously that’s different to the situation being discussed in here). I think this was it (bootlickers in the comnents). It’s praxis tbqh.
You’re collecting wage for 40 hrs/week when in actuality you’re working at most 2.
Shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up!
They’re so close to getting it. This is basically surplus value. I wonder what their view on that is (probably to deny its existence).
This would be a good one for the dunk tank.
