I saw an advert for freelancers to work on time out the other day and my god the money was shit

it was Corpsey that ushered in this new UK. Corpsey specifically, Corpseys Generation more generally. they wanted to work as copywriters and bumlickers instead of being Rebel Street Poets.

the more general point is about professional behaviours invading the social. i noticed this from having worked at starbucks as a teenager.
woops is always moaning about how his dad has taken to saying things like 'enjoy!' and 'have a lovely rest of your afternoon'
and woops has tried to explain that this is a specifically american mode of sales talk not remotely appropriate to grumpy, crabbed old boomer dads

er... yeah... i see you were keen to know my opinions on this

another thing ive noticed is that is somewhat related is how freelancers have forgotten how to socialise normally and be themselves. have you noticed this? they're so scared of saying the wrong thing that its only with old friends that they can ever act like a human being.

cf my post about being in a restaurant listening to to co workers having dinner together and discussing nothing but work for the whole mealtime despite having just done a day's work, not laughing once the whole time
