The subsistence farm does not wait for your days off. You will live your life according to its schedule, and it does not care about sick days or vacation.
To claim that an impoverished serf working land "had 4 days off a week" is nonsense. They worked hard af for all sunlight hours for some seasons, and had plenty of leisure in times like the winter. On average, maybe that's 4 days off, but let's not pretend that working the land is not back breaking work. It's not leisure. If you really think some 40 hour wfh coding job is harder work than farming for your life, then there's no law saying you can't buy some land and go off grid. You're welcome to subsist. Hell you could land a few million subs on youtube airing the experience, that category is all the rage these days
- pojzon 4y ago> To claim that an impoverished serf working land "had 4 days off a week" Well.. noone said that. If you mind reading the comment again. But its true that peasents had a lot more time to work on their own stuff than on what master told them to do. Either way most peasents worked for higher tier peasent because landlord often has hubdreds of hectars of land.
