IMO there is an equilibrium problem.
I really have no problem working 45 hours a week.
I am not changing to 36 hours a week while a co-worker works 45 and then the co-worker is the one who ends up getting promoted.
I am not working in a coal mine or digging ditches that my body is breaking down after 35 hours. I am perfectly capable of 45 high quality hours a week of mental work a week that I enjoy doing. That is what I am looking to trade in the market place and be compensated for.
Most people I know don't do much besides play on their phone when off anyway. What you need an additional day a week to get in more social media?
- mech422 5y agoJust wow... Sounds like you need better employers and more interesting friends. And perhaps some realization that not everyone has the same demands on their time.
- MrDresden 5y agoI'm truly sorry that your reality has imposed that view on you. In my reality, someone who works less is able to relax more, leading to potentially better throught out work (be it code, design, writing, teaching etc). In the end, the individual with the higher quality work will receive extra benefits. Not the one who produces the most.
