Back on the hamster wheel, Sisyphus. That boulder ain't gonna move itself.
But what a glorious 2 days they are

Back on the hamster wheel, Sisyphus. That boulder ain't gonna move itself.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/... by Albert Camus
The essay concludes, "The struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy."
Yeah that's gonna be a no from me, dawg.
I've been there.
But it's the best part of your kids' week! Look at how happy they are.
I'm right there with ya.
I consider myself very lucky because I have a good relationship with my in-laws so usually if I get really tired for the week and need to unwind on the weekend I just dump the kids at their gramps place and both parties will be happy.
Well my boss left for the day so I have my mouse sitting on my jiggler and I’m watching Deep Space Nine on one of my iPads.
You're living the life
How do you work 40 hours in 3 days?
3 13 hour days....

Actual productive time is maybe approaching 27-30 hours, tops.
😳 That is awful. You deserve better.
That's 3-4 days for me tyvm.
Downsides: rotating schedule, 10 hour days occasionally require working 5-6 days in a row pending when people take time off. We set it up so there are overlap on a schedule in the evening though, so you also have to work a abnormal shift ~4 times every two months.
I'd still prefer it over 8x5s. Those long weekends are glorious.
8x4s is what I'll be pressing for when I can.
3x12s for life 💪 God damn having a three day weekend every week is such a quality of life upgrade
A question for experts on Marxist theory.:
If work wasn't alienated, would people want to work more than 40 hours or be happy when working 40 hours?
Dimensions of alienated labor
I'm not an expert, but it seems to me that if the labor isn't alienated, then it becomes less about the hours and more about what's accomplished.
No need to be an expert.
When I'm working on a project that is mine and has my name on it, and I think that it'll help me or someone else in a meaningful way, I'll happily lose sleep over perfecting it.
When I'm just a cog in a giant faceless machine that wants only to maximize profits, I don't really care what the hell happens with the product as long as I get paid.
Oh yeah! Where the guy that usually posts that?
32/3 this week actually
I've got from 5pm Friday to 9am Monday and I'm gonna use every minute of it to do nothing
As is your right!
