When my father lead a contruction departmen in Germany he always provided free food and beer to all the employees and workers. Nevertheless his department was always the most productive and always in the green. He still received complaints from leading manager because of ''high hospitality costs"...

I work in agriculture in southern France. Unless we are avoiding the heat at the height of summer, we arrive at 7:30, have a cafƩ and patisserie with everyone, complimented from the boss, start at 8, short coffee break at 10, then for 12 midday, we go home and have lunch with our families and have a sieste (nap), before restarting at 2pm and finishing up the day's jobs for 5pm. If you finish early, you leave early. It sounds too good to be true because it sadly is. While a rich harvest means lots of work, a ruined harvest from bad weather can mean that your peachy 3 month contract can be swindled down to only 10 hours a week, making the poverty line look pretty. So any time you earn a decent amount of money, it all goes to saving, quite literally, for a rainy day!

When I was an intern working in the maintenance department of a chemical factory, I was always told by the old foremen that you can only expect to reasonably get 4-6 hours out of someone during a dayās work. Seems like those old hands knew what they were talking about

I implored my boss to reduce my daily labour time to 6 hours. He was apprehensive at first, but conceded after taking my pocket watch. I was overjoyed!

The most tragic part is that most of that work is unnecessary. Planned obsolescence and consumerism mean that vast majority of stuff produced is thrown away. We are killing ourselves for nothing but some billionaire's obsession with ticking up his high score.

The best job I ever had was making sandwiches as fast as possible from 8 am to 12 noon. Iād go shopping, do some errands, go home for lunch and the rest of the day was mine. I made the huge mistake of working my way up to management.

I feel like a history on peasant revolts might make an interesting follow up.

Labour went from "this is how much work I need doing, please get it done" to "this is how much time I'm getting out of you, do as much work as possible." Which just intrinsically incentivizes employers to squeeze as much work as possible out of employees at an unsustainable rate.

The Factory I work in used to have 6 people per large line, and 4 per small line. That was 15 years ago, now there is 2 people per small line, and 3 people per large line. Yet we are expected to do double the work. Working used to be painless, relaxed and enjoyable. Now it is incredibly painful; if you do the job right youāll experience pains in your chest, hands, and feet. If you donāt do it the right way itās your spine instead of your chest.

I was working contract out of town making really good money. I remember when I told them I was going to take a month off for my wedding. They shamed me, they acted shocked and judged me. I took my new wife to Italy and we had the best time ever. Thatās what I remember! F those people! You got one life. Live it!

Me in college: 4-6 hours class days, 4.5 months of total vacation, mostly free weekends, big lunch break. That was paired by 3 hours of train rides every weekday that gave me time to read or listen to music. That was the life.

Straight out of high school I got a minimum wage job at a factory. I was lucky I got the day shift. Can't imagine night shift. Day/night both operated 12 hr shifts and work weeks were structured work 3 days, then 2 days off. Work 2 days, then 3 days off. Weekends basically didn't exist, which to my surprise I didn't hate too much. Until a thing called "mandatory overtime" came along. When my boss first told me about it I laughed and thought he was joking. That made him hate me for sure! Mandatory Overtime means: work 3 days, work 2 days, then work 3 days again. No 2 day break. I was so naive back then but thankfully somehow I managed to get myself fired. Best decision ever made. I have very graphic and violent words to say to the people that support or made that system up. MANDATORY. OVERTIME. Yeah boss whatever it is mandatory for you to go eff yourself.

I learned from my grandmother that many of my ancestors were farm workers in a village in Bedfordshire, and were forced to leave due to enclosure of farmland. Two of my great-great grandparents and their children moved to Hendon in London. The details of their lives are murky, but my grandmother still has the death certificate of my great-great grandfather, which says he died aged thirty-six, from "exhaustion" and "malnutrition".

Wtf, iāve always felt 4-6 hours felt wayy better and my mind much more active and clear, but the dread of that 7th to 8 hour and the long drive home, youāre right, 4-6 is perfect work day.

This is why kids are made to sit and do busy work in school to break them mentally and prepare them for factory work
