Just as any other job, we make alot of people push different kinds of dynamos or any other device capable of generating energy out of movement, like a stationary bike attached to a battery and instead of per-hour making we pay them as they generate energy? how would this work in our society?

Really bad. A good estimate of an average continuous power output of someone a bike might be about 100w unless they’re a trained endurance athlete. Even if you could recover that with perfect efficiency, at a rate of 15 cents or so per kWh of electricity, that’s a gross revenue of about 1.5 cents per hour of activity.
If you’re paying them minimum wage for that, that’s still a horribly cost efficient electricity source.
