Time fracking and radical new notions of productivity
The “do more with less” assumes that there is a significant quantity of “wasted” time yet to be wrung from the average worker. It assumes that you can agglomerate all those unused ergs and semi-ergs into chunks of usable time and effort. Extraction requires aggressive measures to reap that last little bit of productivity. In fact, it’s not unlike a violent mining process known as fracking.
