Me acting like a functioning adult who doesn't need to be micromanaged all day and can take a few minutes and enjoy myself is anti union? No it's pro human.

Sorry that that's how you're interpreting it. Just being explicit that there's a balance between being a mooch, and taking care of yourself.

That's like so boot licking, the very idea I could somehow mooch off the company who exploits my labour. Screw that.

Strange how the dictionary has different definitions for the two words.

I'm used to needing group buy in for things that are potentially dangerous for their careers here in the US. How do you think your message of "sucking every morsel out of each day" comes across? Staying at home to knit on the clock?

I agree the system is designed to be exploitative, but I can't change that alone.
