This is so spot on. Have heard people also frame it as feeling like they are “cheating” on work in the traditional relationship sense.

Totally. I think we need a support group. Ironically, I don't suffer this at all for recreation activities, probably because that mentally maps to PTO. But I feel it for anything work-ish that won't earn.

IMO this is the effect of the neoliberal axiom that every human activity should be measurable and contribute to your or your organization's "value". I don't think it's only middle-class. The idea of needing a "practical justification" to do something prevents critical thinking.

I totally feel the same way. Even though I have 100% control over my time, when 5 o'clock hits, I finally feel guilt free for reading or doing non work stuff

How much better off would a business be if the employees were allowed an hour of self study each day instead of just pretending to work?
-
“Allowed”, “study”, “one hour”... man you’re so deeply trapped I feel totally free now

how did you get infected by this one? is there an India equivalent of Protestant work ethic or did you acquire it in North America?
-
Protestant ethic is merely the western variant. The Asian versions are if anything more oppressive.
