IF there was a form of technology that allows you to “sever” your consciousness into two through an invasive brain surgery, where a new one for the workplace is created, while you retain the original consciousness for your personal life, would you go under the knife for it?
The perks are great. Once you clock in, your “work-self” wakes up and completes whatever your company asks of them for the typical eight office hours and once they clock out, you wake up to continue the rest of the day.
A complete split between the two, you retain no memories of work, relationship with colleagues, office politics and so on, while the other has no memories beyond what they do at work. It is an easy paycheck, but here is the thing: That other consciousness sharing your body has no rights.
They are corporate slaves. Their world is the workplace. Their religion is their company’s dogma. Their gods are their bosses.
If under any unfortunate situation where they or you are fired, they will go to sleep permanently. In other words, their consciousness “dies”. Would you be able to accept the ethics and morality behind such a situation?
