"Here’s Carlos Slim, the world’s second richest man: “We should be working only 3 days a week.”"
Why does everyone omit the number of hours Carlos is suggesting? Hint: it's not 8-9 hours.
Anyway, it's all cool, as long as he doesn't want to use any of the tax-payer funded public services.
- Quanticles 11y ago3 days for 12-14 hours a day would be nice - does he think those should be M/W/F or T/W/Th ?
- Touche 11y agoSpeak for yourself, I'm tapped out at 8. I can work on side-projects for an additional 2 or 3 some times, but that's not work.
- a3n 11y agoHow did he become the 2nd richest man? By figuring out how to take a larger share of productivity than the people working for him. And many of them are working 3 days a week, often different and unpredictable days, and they'd probably like to work more, because of that productivity asymmetry.
- athenot 11y agoLike medical staff working in the O.R. who often work 3 days per week but still fit in about 40 hours.
