For like 12 years I’ve worked in the service industry. That means sporadic hours and shifts that can happen whenever. About a year ago though I got a 9:00 to 5:00 job and it has been absolute hell trying to live my life as I have. How do normal people do this? All the business hours of places that you need to go, the bank, the doctors, the post office. Office they’re closed by the time you get off of work. I have to actually call off of work just to get anything done. There’s no way the majority of people are living like this, right?

    Not that I don’t agree with you, but I think we would still have the same problems if we shifted to say a 4 day work week, because then the bank tellers and postal workers and such would either have to work the same days to allow people to use the services or we all do 4 days and still no one can make use of them. It seems like people get shafted no matter what

      Who said that you have to work 4 days a week or 40 hours a week? These are arbitrary numbers crumbled down from slavery.
