- futuremeats 11y agoDo you believe the numbers about how the average workweek has gotten shorter over the past 100 years? Table 2 and 3 in the article below contain info like what I'm talking about. https://eh.net/encyclopedia/hours-of-work-in-u-s-history/ https://eh.net/encyclopedia/hours-of-work-in-u-s-history/ I generally consider myself a pro-capitalist rational optimist, but we are a lot richer than we were 100 years ago, and my workweek is still 50+ hours a week. I wonder when we will get those 10 hour workweeks...
- ktRolster 11y agoWhy are you working 50 hours a week? I hope you're getting compensated extra for the extra work you're doing.
- logicfiction 11y agoI don't know OP's situation, but there are companies out there that will upfront tell you expected hours for your salaried position being X. A few years ago, a recruiter told me 65 hours was expected for a role at their mega-tech company.
- Johnnybe 11y agoDo you get paid overtime? If not, why are you working 10 "free" hours a week? It's people like you that are ruining it for the rest of us.
- ktRolster 11y agoI think they point is you shouldn't be working ALL THE TIME. There is something wrong with your life.....you can fix it.
