My thoughts on Can we have a day off?: Can we have a day off?
Commentary
- Can we have a day off?
- Beautiful. What a sarcastic blog.
- If we are 10x productive, then can’t we just take friday off? Yes, we should be technically, but that’s not how it works right? Or I should say, they don’t want us to. If you are productive then we can do more work, that is the new north star metric right. I hope that doesn’t make us literally reach the north pole. Cold.
- This won’t be sustainable I can see, working 10x productively and still having the same day structure of rest and work, is not going to make people happier or healthier. It might have impact later in their lives.
- I am not joking, I have started exercising, just walking the least an hour. It has helped me stay a bit more attentive and focused. Its not easy to work 12 hours and still get the motivation to work each day, day after day, 5 day a week. Even sometimes, “you can work over the weekend maybe” and “take next week off”. That is just like saying, “suffer now” but rest later, no remedy just take the cure later, no precautions.
