First of all, it's not really as elastic as that: if I'm making a salary, even if I compute the hourly rate and say I make $x/hour, I can't work one more hour and make $x more. Second of all, "Anyone who says time is money doesn't understand the value of time" - probably misquoted from someone.<br /><br />Also, the idea that work is a machine that lets you and me convert time into money is a little reductionistic- maybe I'm having fun at work one day, so I get money and fun! Or, I get money and experience. Furthermore, you could easily extrapolate on that and say my time is more valuable than, say, a teacher's, which is clearly not true.<br /><br />However, I'm really just splitting hairs. I agree with the sentiment!Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03312048754374286109noreply@blogger.com
