It's absurd to think "we've stumbled on the biggest productivity increase" by changing the math to include commute. If you work 10 hours and are productive for 10 hours, nothing changes regarding workd done whether you commuted 1 hour or not. It's only when you swap 11 hours for 10 that there is a difference. Nothing agaist saving time, but to say that's the biggest productivity increase is stretching it I think.
- bestnameever 6y agoTrue if you are looking at this from the employers view. But as an employee, They'll be less productive in their lives if they require a hour commute to produce 10 hours of work compared to if they didn't.
- unabst 6y agoNo totally. But even from your own perspective, the output of your day is the same, you're being paid the same, which means to the economy you're also the same. So the title of the article is a bit ridiculous. Formatting the title of the article as a question makes it okay?
