I have strictly limited overtime with high bonuses and mandatory rest days, afternoon/night shift bonuses, 20 days minimum fully paid vacation, fully paid maternity leave, fully paid sick leave, healthcare paid through taxes, all written into law. Feels nice to live in a place where workers have rights. Anyway, how’s that deregulation going, America?

12 hour shift
1 hour commute each way, so 2 hours
1 hour cooking/eating/cleaning
1 hour showering, getting dressed, getting ready for the next day.
Uh oh, bedtime if I want to have a chance at 8 hours of sleep.
1 hour walking the dog and playing with her. 7 hours of sleep possible.

Out here in Maine it’s pretty common to have to travel for work. All of the jobs are in or around Portland, but you can’t fucking afford to live where you work so many people have to live further north and travel south for work everyday. It’s the ideal environment for remote work, but fucking boomers run everything so they expect you in the office everyday.

Work from home is the best. Apparently the office that I used to work in has been closed down and I’m not actually sure where in the town the new one is, so I couldn’t go into the office even if I wanted to.

Yet another reason to decry our automobile based society. Working or schooling at anything more than a mile out is a ridiculous notion.
Socialism_Everyday@reddthat.com 2 weeks ago
This has less to do with the admittedly awful automobile-based society and more to do with the allocation of housing. High prices and low availability lead to people generally living randomly far away from their workplace. Soviet Union citizens for example accessed housing mostly through their labor union, and were allocated housing near their workplace so they could easily go walking or with public transit. It made cities very efficient with regards to commute, together with the division of urban areas into so-called “mikroraion” units, which established the concept of 15-minute neighborhoods already 70 years ago.

I think people are confused by seeing influencers and/or rich people and thinking what they have is normal.
In the 1500s it was sun-up to sun-down, 6 days a week for the work outdoors. Once the sun set, nothing could really be done. If you were a typical peasant you couldn’t even afford to keep a candle lit. So, people went back to their one-room huts with their livestock in the same room and slept and/or waited for morning. They didn’t have to work Sundays, but they were absolutely required to attend church on Sundays, so it wasn’t a free day. There were other days off, but many of them were days where you had to do a certain prescribed activity.
In the early 1800s it was 12 hours of work, 6 days a week. Industrial era lighting technology meant that work could continue after the sun had set, so there were no winter days where you only worked 8 hours. Also, because this was the era of the factory, people had to commute to the factory and back, so if you were lucky you had a full 10 or 11 hours when you weren’t working or commuting. If you wanted to sleep for 8 hours, you’d have 2-3 hours to do your cooking, eating, cleaning, bathing, mending, socializing, etc.
Thanks to tireless and bloody protesting by labour unions, 6 days of 12 hours each was shortened to 5 days of 8 hours each. It started in Chicago. The “Haymarket Affair” was a protest that led to a riot which led to public hangings. But, eventually, as a result of that, the work day was shortened to only 8 hours. Then, in the years that followed, a 2 day weekend became standard.
It might not feel like it, but your ancestors would be jealous about how much free time you have these days. Your distant, peasant ancestors might actually have had fewer work hours. But, they only stopped working when it was too dark to do anything, and then they basically sat or slept in a tiny, drafty, stuffy, one-room hut along with their livestock until the sun came up.
If we kill and eat the rich and use their bones as decorations, it would be possible to keep a bit more of the value of our labour. But, we’re nowhere near a situation where we can all live like the rich. Someone does still need to plant the food, harvest the food, pump the oil, cast the iron, smelt the aluminum, keep track of the shipping, etc. Life is hard, and has always been hard.

This is only true because capitalism is limiting technology to the point where all these mundane tasks can’t be automated or improved with tech so that it can be possible for all to self-maintain. Yes, not that simple and yeah someone would need to program things and maintain things, but there’s no way in hell I’m going to believe that humanity can waste so much time and money on something as unethical as AI but somehow can’t come up with technology to let people maintain crops without having every piece of the puzzle we have now.
They can do it. Everybody talks about how crazy it is about how in such a short time span we’ve gone from flying planes to landing on the moon and it is ridiculous. It’s not that inconceivable to believe that we can come up with tech to better maintain society beyond what we have now. People want to keep the status quo because they limit their minds to what has been.
Capitalism dictates that profit means everything. We don’t need pot holes to be filled every other year just because people get a job. People shouldn’t be dependent on such a system to survive. Pot holes can be filled with a solution that will not dissipate over time but capitalism doesn’t want that. It wants to make sure there’s a demand to pay someone despite the penalty of the many.

I think it’s more likely that people saw their parents or grandparents living on a single income, so between two people there was a lot more “free” time. When one adult is managing the home, and the other is making money, both get to be more off duty after work. The grocery shopping, meal prepping, social calendar finagling, and cleaning were happening simultaneously with the money making job.
Managing a household is a whole ass job and a lot of people are expected to do it on top of their day job and that’s why we feel like we have no time. I don’t think we’re comparing ourselves to celebrities, just our own family members.
merc@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago

If their parents were white and American and this was just after WWII, that’s possible.
Just after WWII the US was basically the only advanced economy in the world that hadn’t been flattened by war. While European and Asian states had had all their factories and cities bombed, the only attack on the US was an attack on strictly military targets in a far-off place that wasn’t even a state yet. In addition, during the Great Depression FDR put into place all kinds of New Deal policies that blunted the power of the ultra rich and strengthened the power of workers. So, when WWII ended a lot of workers benefited from strong unions and weak rich people. In addition, there were now modern grocery stores, running water, electrical appliances, etc. so a housewife had a much easier time of it than her great-grandmother might have in the early 1900s.
That period wasn’t typical though. It definitely wasn’t like that in the Gilded Age, the 1920s. The 1930s had the Great Depression. The 1940s of course had WWII. Before that, in the 1800s and early 1900s it was often common for a woman to stay home while her husband worked. But, she had a pretty gruelling job. She had to get groceries (or garden (which was closer to farming than the hobby people have today)) and cook, but without any modern appliances, including a refrigerator. That also meant creating a lot of preserves or canning. She had to do laundry with a washboard and soap. Cleaning meant a broom, mop and bucket. Cleaning also meant making your own cleaning supplies from scratch. Clothes were expensive, so a lot of time was spent either sewing new clothes at home, or mending old ones. So, even though it was 1 income for 2 adults, both adults were doing a really gruelling day of work, not like the nicer version of that from the 1950s.
So, while it’s true that some women today “manage a household” on top of a 9-5 job, modern appliances and stores mean that they do a fraction of the work that their great-great-great-grandmothers did.

There’s a lot of evidence of what life was like for peasants back in the Medieval period. But, it’s hard to be exact because there were a lot of things that were taken for granted so nobody bothered to write them down and clarify.
Here’s an article about it:
yeoldetymenews.com/…/do-you-work-more-than-a-medi…
What’s well known, for example, is how many sundays and feast days there were. What’s less known is what actually happened on those days. For example, the Monday and Tuesday after easter were ale-drinking feasts. What was a feast though? In some cases it was a “party” where attendance was mandatory and you had to pay a fee. Yes, there was drinking, but was it a party, or was it one of those “work parties” where you had to go, had to be on your best behaviour, etc.?
Because it varied a lot century-to-century and also varied location-to-location, it’s hard to pin down what it was like unless you’re looking at a specific location at a specific time, and it’s a location and time where there’s good data. What is pretty well known is that nights were really dark. Even candles were expensive for a peasant. So, when the sun set, work more or less stopped

Yay! A chance for me to link to my favorite blog: acoup.blog/…/collections-life-work-death-and-the-… (may require reading part IV.a and IV.b first).
A Collection of Unmitigated Pedantry is right now doing a series on how peasants lived. Arable land is limited, people really don’t want to watch their family members starve, and the entire economic system is maybe kind of reliant on squeezing peasants to do the things necessary for society to function, so there’s strong incentives of all kinds to work a lot
WoodScientist@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Interestingly, the one glaring exception to this is hunter-gatherer lifestyles. They had to work less hours than modern day workers. Hunter gathered groups tended to evolve cultural practices that lead to constant population. When you’re living off the land, the land only gives what it gives. When your area is already near its population carrying capacity, there isn’t a ton to gain from putting in extra work. You go and gather what you need for the day, and that’s it. Getting extra will just mean more food that is rapidly spoiling, leaving less for tomorrow. Better to just sit in camp, sit around the fire, sing some songs, and conserve some calories.
BombOmOm@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
If you own/use as much as a hunter-gather owned/used, you also wouldn’t need to work very much.
Take away the fridge, tv, computer, phone, car, hvac, stove, microwave, water, electricity, gas, 95% of the house, going out to eat, etc. You are not left with many expenses. You can live that way, it doesn’t require much working to maintain that lifestyle.

Back in the 50s they thought people in the year 2000 would only work 20 hours a week and the biggest problem would be too much free time.
If we don’t make permanent retirement for all of humanity a goal we won’t get there. But the unifying factor for every political party is MOAR JOBZ. Hell, even the ancoms think people should work.

Back in the 50s they had strong unions and great New Deal laws that helped workers out. But, they didn’t put two and two together. They didn’t understand why things were great. They didn’t realize that by the 70s politicians would already be rolling back all those protections, and that people wouldn’t object. In addition, the people in the 50s just assumed that black people would continue to be an underclass who could be exploited. So, a white person could do less while a black person picked up the slack.

This is not entirely true though; people have lived up in the north for ages, and they certainly did not just sleep up to 24h per day for several months. “Just sitting” isn’t how I’d describe it either, since those were the times for handcrafts, storytelling… etc. Expensive candles were were not the only source of light, for example around here people used specific wood chips they burned to get some light - obviously it’s nothing like modern day lighting, but it wasn’t just total darkness either.

I’ve come up with enough shortcuts and workarounds that I can do my job over twice as fast as my coworkers, though I’ll never tell my boss that. I do have OT sometimes, but I get paid well for it, and still rarely have to put in a full 8 hours in a day, even when getting an extra several hours of time and a half. People look down on hourly pay, but it’s way better than salary for times like those.

In Asia it’s even worse. Standard work day in China for example is 9-9-6 which 9am to 9pm six days a week - remember that next time you see China living in 2070 propaganda. Six days a week is still de facto standard in most Asian countries.
The best part is that the actual work output is actually worse than five day 9-5 but I guess you have to keep the masses too busy for self awareness even if it costs economically. I’d remote contract with many teams in Shenzen, Tokyo and Hochiminh city and its incredibly how little actual work they get done with these crazy hours and its not due to lack of employee skill.

I get the point, but this is a bit self defeatist.
First of all, 1hr seems a bit excessive for showering and getting dressed, that’s like 30 minutes tops for me, I could maybe see an hour if I’m going to a black tie event and I’ve been doing yardwork all day. If it takes an entire hour to get showered and dressed every single day, personal grooming and wardrobe is one of your hobbies.
Then that 1hr commute can be audiobooks, hobby podcasts, music discovery, etc. With public transportation, it can be physical books, chatting with friends, researching new things, or anything you can do from your phone. You can even knock out some of that mindless scrolling early.
Personally, my “mindless” scrolling is through platforms that I’ve curated for content relevant to my hobbies and interests. So it doesn’t really stay mindless for long, it starts to hit those fulfilling notes. And most of the jobs I’ve had have had lulls in that 8hr block where I could not-so-mindlessly scroll here and there.
Also 1hr unpaid overtime every day? Um what? They specified wagie so not salaried, anon has a slam dunk labor rights case.
So we found 30min in the morning, those 2hrs of commute are usable, say another 30min of scrolling at work (probably higher, but I’m assuming a more demanding job to be conservative), and fuck off 1hr unpaid work. That’s an extra 4hrs of potentially fulfilling time if you use it.
Like yeah, wagie life is draining, don’t get me wrong. But you have the power to reclaim some of that.
