I do think that many progressive companies are starting to recognize this and are giving more "flexible" work environments, which isn't a solution but it's nowhere near as horrible as it could be. I consider that my father worked on a lathe 50 hours a week when I was growing up and thank my lucky stars that he never allowed me to follow in his footsteps. -I tried.There's nothing I want to do 40 hours a week. There shouldn't be anything anyone wants to do 40 hours a week.
-The contrarian in me sat here trying to think of something to combat that statement with. You know, music, playing with my kids etc. but the truth is, I would not want to do anything that much. All things in moderation, even those things that bring us joy.
