There are diminishing returns beyond that. Yeah I’m online and can respond to emails, but I run out of gas and need to save some mental energy for my family.

The 40 hour work week is very incompatible with the rise of dual income families.

This is the answer to the other thread about why people are anti-WFH. Everyone is doing the above, or even worse.

There’s nothing wrong with this. Go ahead, work 50 hour weeks, have a heart attack at 60, we don’t care. But we’re not about to.

I”m just telling you why people are anti wfh and why companies are mandating RTO. This is why. Everyone can see it in their neighborhood and on the roads. Everyone is mowing the lawn, doing school runs, jogging, running errands, anything but actual work.

And so what? People get to have lives. It probably goes to show that their jobs aren’t very important, anyway.

Then their companies don’t need to have nearly as many employees. People are being naive.
