The worst part of getting paid by the hour is now anytime I spend money I think about it in hours. Y'all do this too or am I the only one?

This what your parents refer to as ‘learning the value of money’. You no longer think of prices in dollars, you think of them in terms of “How much of my life did I give up for this?”.

What’s also terrible is being paid salary but work 9+ hours a day but only being able to clock 8 hours

This is also why right-wingers are generally okay with the idea of shooting a thief. “So you value *things* more than *human life*?” No, I spent *my life* earning those things, you don’t get to rob me of *the life* that I spent on them.
