I want to open this view up to the floor and introduce it into society.
I've been having this discussion a lot recently with colleagues who overwork and are under appreciated. Thinking about work is work. If you are thinking of how to approach your day and how to approach a project on your commute to work, that is working time. Therefore it's perfectly acceptable to include that in the hours you have worked for the day if you have a micromanager as a boss. In many careers, work is not just if you are sat at a desk clicking on a screen or taping on a keyboard.
