Leisure Is Work

Found while scrolling thru the newswires of the World Wide Web: stories of American employers looking outside the boundaries of company time for reason to fire their workers. Example: John Kerry bumper sticker. Fired. Budweiser brewery employee, drinking Coors at a bar after work. Fired. Waitresses at an Atlantic City bar required to stay within a certain weight range or face expulsion.
The capacity for rage having been thorougly exhausted, let me just saythat it is obvious who owns our time, and even more obvious how much of it they own.
