===The [[third law of worker entropy]]===
===The [[third law of worker entropy]]===
Hypothesis: [[all other things being equal]], if an activity is [[tedious]], it is ''[[waste]]ful''. If it is wasteful, you ''shouldn’t do it''. This can be articulated as the Jolly Contrarian’s [[third law of worker entropy]]:
{{third law of worker entropy}}
 
''There is a 100% correlation between (i) activities that, however important they might seem, in fact have no value, and (ii) activities which are [[tedious]].''


If an activity is 25% tedious it is 25% wasteful.
If an activity is 25% tedious it is 25% wasteful.
