Antiwork

Why have we normalized how long we spend at work and the length of the workday?

When you compare it to other things we do, spending 8-9 hours at work at least five days a week is asinine. Think of it this way: -I can take a transcontinental flight to Europe in 6-7 hours – I can play 36 holes of golf – I could drive from my hometown of Pittsburgh to Chicago or very close to it in that time – I could sit through three Major League Baseball games or three movies All of these are things that most people would agree take a long time, yet we spend that much time everyday at work and it’s normal. Let’s change this crap, or at least eliminate one day of work
