Er sorry, I meant to say day job. Not day of, obviously.

Also, surreptitious57, wtf was asking what my normative theory supports, not what is legal.

If you day job is philosopher and Hex told you not to quit it, does not fly against the idea that he does not like philosophy. In fact, it being true that he does not - and he does not explicitly and openly, that ought to give you pause about what he actually meant.

Does he even suspect that your day job is, in fact, philosophy?
