One thing that’s been abundantly clear to me as I’ve seen the incredible rise in computation, wireless communications and automation over the last 30 years. The benefactors of it have not been the workers as they’ve leveraged technology to get their work done more quickly and efficiently each day.

It’s not like people suddenly found themselves in the smartphone and mobile computing age being able to go home 3 or 4 hours early every day. It’s all meant that they can just cram 5x the number of operations or calls into an ever lengthening workweek. It’s horseshit.
