The Concept of the 40h Work Week is Bullshit

Whenever I get some time off work I'm left wondering what kind of person I'd be if I wasn't forced to be productive for most of my time. What's the point in living if every waking hour is labour? I'm either working, cooking, doing chores, keeping healthy. I don't even have kids. How is this not universally seen as a full fledged dystopia? Even in the best case scenario of having a full weekend for myself, how is having 2 days out of 5 considered freedom? I'm burnt out as fuck and I don't see how working hard to have free time when I'm old has any value. I'll be old. I'm burnt out. Fuck this.
