I feel like any young person I speak to who is plugged into the English-speaking world will at least have encountered anti-work discourse. I've heard of people lying flat in China and nearby countries. Is there comparable discussion going on in your language? What does it look like?

The "Bullshit jobs" sentiment seems to be quite widely understood in white collar spaces and is ultimately very similar to anti-work ideas. I am sure that is the same in France.

Oh yeah no absolutely; usually when I bring it up, most people understand the concept just fine, but it's like they never really thought about it too much before, if that makes sense.
