That completely makes sense and how it should be. Work is slatted and when its done, you go home or do whatever you want. Yes there is a major difference in philosophy for sure. I've been in a job where that wasnt the case. You'd just hang out, nothing productive to do, but you had to stretch the day out to get your wage. It got tiring. If I dont produce now, I dont get paid. If there is nothing to do, I dont work.
