To which I would add, there is no "productivity puzzle." To every technological innovation, the employer says, "Do more work." Not, "Go home early."
- toomuchtodo 1y agoSomewhat adjacent to Parkinson's law imho: "work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion." As long as the work week is not ratcheted back as productivity increases, capital will continue to demand more within the work time established by law. It's why the efforts around a 4 day week are so important, considering the magnitude of which productivity has increased over the last half century (~4x). If you don't take the time back to be human (and not a worker), the work (like the mail) will never stop being issued.
