My parents grew up in communism. Lounging around doing nothing was among the things no-one was allowed to do. The police even raided daytime cinema sessions to interrogate people about why they weren't working. Salaries were low and largely random with little connection to the value created. These weaklings would be in for a surprise if it ever happened.
Little connection to value created doesn't mean random. I suspect there would be a strong connection between higher salaries and connections with the people who make those decisions.

Salary is for peasants, proper apparatchik needs no stinky money to have everything he ever wanted provided by the system.
