...haven't you? I believe a congressperson introduced this legislation, from like a standard 5 day work week, to 4. Do you believe it will ever happen, but most of you would like it to happen right? --- "I used to be a people person, then people ruined it" ... Copied to Clipboard!

There's this fundamental disconnect where entitled lazies expect a 25% pay increase - they want a 4 x 8hr week. A true "4 day workweek" is 4x10. And these people willfully ignore logic, then throw their hands up and say "well i expected you to know it was 4x8! Gib mony!" ... Copied to Clipboard!

people work 40-60+ hours because they need the money. more time off means poorer Americans. Yes a 36-38 hour work week would be nice, but that doesn't pay the bills . --- *flops* ... Copied to Clipboard!

people that have the luxury to work less than 30 hours a week already have good paying jobs. People aren't working a lot because of mean companies making them work overtime. people are working a lot because they trying to get out of poverty. Look at youtube self-help videos. they suggest anyone who is struggling with money to work every hour they are awake. --- *flops* ... Copied to Clipboard!

Prismsblade posted... There's also the issue that less work means less production which means fewer supply of things and the more they will cost because demand hasn't changed. Hours worked and productivity are not the same. Too much time in one day or week and you get worse productivity per worker past a certain point. This compounds when work causes issues with access to key services, healthcare, and does not allow sufficient time to handle personal, family or other issues. --- I post clips of my cool, stupid and glitchy MH Sunbreak and Wild Hearts hunts here just for fun. https://youtube.com/user/linkachu1000 ...

Homeless_Waifu posted... But if people are gonna be working less, wouldn't that mean they're making less money? I can see people who are already struggling to make ends meet reaching a breaking point if such a proposal goes through... The answer is simple. Lower pay/compensation to high ups. Less money spent on dividends and shit. Stock buybacks are banned or severely limited. Etc. Pay workers more to do less(bare minimum is far more to do the same)Pay the highs ups less and tax them more. The excess money is there. Income inequality has soared for decades. This inequality and cynical unchecked exploitation is incredibly corrosive to society. --- I post clips of my cool, stupid and glitchy MH Sunbreak and Wild Hearts hunts here just for fun. https://youtube.com/user/linkachu1000 ...

Unsuprised_Pika posted... Hours worked and productivity are not the same. If that was true AI and automation that work 24/7 wouldn't boost production significantly. So ultimately this is a job specific issue and generally limited to mostly poorly unoptimized white collar jobs. Contruction workers probably wouldn't be able to meet their usual strict deadlines if schedules dropped from 5/6 days a week to 4. Factory jobs wouldn't be able to produce and ship as many goods as they usually do with the time allotted. Deliverys would slow to a crawl as drivers would have less time overall to transport goods to a X amount of customers over a Y distance. --- 3DS FC:3368-5403-9633 Name: Kaizer PSN: Blackkaizer ...

Not gonna happen anytime soon. For sure not on a federal level. Some states reps asked for it (California), but realistically it's not gonna pass to be mandatory.
