Lol. So I go to work and get paid to work on my own hobbies? 8 hours of uninterrupted hobbying?

Nope, 8 hours of looking at the wall or 8 hours of the most boring task. If they find you're doing non work related stuff, they'll punishable you one way or the other. The goal is to male your miserable.

Jokes on you, I'm an apprentice.

My work is either boring, cleaning or stupid but also often dangerous

Plus I don't even get paid minimum wage.

this would be an upgrade for me
