@mitkotraykov5841 Some people aren't lazy bro... there's nothing wrong with 84 hours of work if you're getting paid properly and you desire the hours. I'm getting ready to start a new brick and mortar and expect 100 hour weeks, every week for the first 2 years. You conflate, wanting to work with being forced to work, nobody in America is forced to work. Look at San Francisco, you have the full range of not wanting to work, to billionaire.

@daryl4841 You've obviously never been retired. You'll GLADLY welcome MORE than 40 hours of work, if you spend just 1 year retired. Now, what you call work, and what I call work are two different things. For me, work = hours spent doing things that generate income. Not "doing things that suck". And I monetize my hobbies. So, unless you are going to catch up on 40 years viewing time of TV, and unless you enjoy staring at flowers grow or paint peel... you will seek a hobby to monetize too, and thus, will spend more than 40 hours a week, WORKING. Heck, I think I spent 40 hours on EACH of my hobbies this week.

3:15 Mythconception that the bottom figure on the totem pole was a lowly person. That was usually the King... Get it? HE supports his village on his back. Falsus in Uno, Falsus in Omnibus.

That is privilege... many people would LOVE to work 40 hours. :)

@ryanday9737 I believe you forgot the Pandemic. And packing up a family and household and moving location at the cost of thousands, isn't always possible for people with degrees that worked at certain positions that have been let go because their industry was scaled back. I'm not talking about a construction crew member or teen needing a first job. Those are plenty.
