    I dunno, being able to get my 8 hours of work in AND get a full nights’ sleep at the same time, leaving 16 hours for leisure sounds awesome to me!

    At least that’s how I’m choosing to believe this will play out, for the sake of my sanity.

      You mean 8hrs of sleep work and 8hrs of awake work. Paid only for the awake work

      Do you think you’ll feel rested if you were dreamworking on TPS reports all night?

        I mean, I’d be lying if I said I wouldn’t give it a try, assuming it replaced 8 hours of awake work.

          Sleep is one of the few respites from the drudgery and harshness of this world. In the offchance it can actually be hijacked for more labor, do not let it be stolen.

          Oh I’m right there with you, if I can get paid to sleep work, and not have to work while awake, and be rested when I wake up after my shift, I’d be all for it. But that just sounds way too good to be true.

      I’d rather work 8 hours awake and have the lucid dreaming just add to my leisure time tbh. Seems a waste to unlock the dreamworld just to be office drones in it.

      What kind of work lets you get away with zero social communication and interaction for the entirety of 8 hours a day? Even in the “coding” example, there is a fair bit of collaboration in software development.

      Even assuming this kind of job exists, your corporate overlords will push for mandatory 8hr day work + 8hr sleep work and only pay you 4 hours for it.
