I dunno. Perhaps a lot of people in the 3rd world countries say that this guy has got all the food he can eat, all the space he can use in that apartment, and so working 3 days a week seems like a heck of a good deal.
I dunno. I loved what I did, and still miss my work sometimes. I was never ambitious to climb the corporate ladder, and in fact refused to advance further because it would take me away from technical work. It's the fun of building something and seeing it work. Many people do not have this passion in their work. I feel sorry for them, because I was fortunate.
This guy enjoys working in a grocery store. It's an honest-to-goodness job, and who's to say that this job is not more useful to society than his old job, whatever it was, although the old job paid more.
