Even if you're fired and end up homeless and starve to death, suffering is only temporary because soon you'll die and your life won't even be a measurable blip on the timeline of the universe and within 3 or 4 generations you'll all but be completely forgotten... So why not leave early

I need the money and don't have sick/vacation time to waste anymore because I've used it all.

Not a problem if you just die! [taps forehead]

Also nobody remembers the guy that left the office early on Friday when Monday morning comes around.

As a teacher, I'm sure my students would notice if I left early.

We'll be happy that you left so that we can spend an hour goofing around

Sound like a hazard of doing a job that's actually necessary. Have you tried doing a job that just makes money for a billionaire?

It is odd that we could shut down all of society and have like half of people work from home and basically none of it really mattered except, farmers, nurses, teachers, factory workers, construction, maintenance etc.

How do you leave a day (while preserving the option to come back for the next day)?

Life. Size. Cardboard. Cutout.

You just fucking leave. Are you useful? They will welcome you back
