Robe Schedule

A particularly work schedule defined by a high degree of remote/telecommuting, flex time, and having considerably fewer working hours than the universally accepted 40-hour work week. The name comes from workers generally wearing (bath) robes during their working hours, since they're often conducting business from home.

Popularized mostly by developers, writers, and other professionals who are able to work remotely and do not require to be physically present in order to do their jobs, and who also generally produce no more than 4-5 hours of creative work per day.

Famous examples of people on the Robe Schedule include: Stephen King, Hugh Hefner, Tim Ferris, and several others.
Edward's performance has clearly improved since hopping on a robe schedule last year.

I dream of the day when I can get on a robe schedule and stop going to these endless, pointless meetings!

Today July 12th is the day you will schedule an interview and then not show up, as a way to communicate with the world your pride in being an unprofessional, unemployable jerk

The Schedule

The Schedule is an oppressive form of authority that forcefully presides over your life. Most people have to be on some sort of a schedule. People in prison have it really rough in terms of the schedule, students in school are under the oppressive tyranny of the schedule, and people at work are forced to abide by the schedule. It's very rare that someone won't be required to follow a schedule. Sometimes wealthy adults get to not have to follow a schedule.

What the schedule is is a list of times and places you have to be. It is literally the radical opposite of freedom. Some people willingly attempt to plan out their lives, which invariably results in having a schedule. People like me are aware of it and avoid schedules at any and all costs. At work I have to follow a schedule, but when I'm off, I'm free. To hell with the schedule. Imagine, blocks of time where you legally are required to be OR ELSE, even if you DON'T WANT TO. It's essentially slavery.

Bottom Line: Never plan shit out if you aren't required to. You will be sorry. If you are in school, you'll be free eventually. If you are at work, you might be getting off soon. Stand tough, burn the schedule.
At Graduation:

Jill: So Bill where are you going to college?
Bill: North University, you?
Jill: Foxcreek. Now that we've graduated and don't have to follow the schedule, do you want to set it on fire with me?
Bill: Sure Jill! Let's burn the schedule!

dead on my own schedule

When you make plans to do something with someone else, but when the time comes you're still asleep.
"Thanks, Karina. I really appreciate it."
"No problem. Now, go to sleep, we leave tomorrow."

You wake up, and head to Karina's room. She's still asleep.
"Karina," you say, shaking her by the shoulder.
"Huh? Wha? Huh?" she says, waking up.
"It's time to go. We're leaving today."
"Finally. I'm fucking dead on my own schedule."
