The five day work week seems pretty reasonable to us because it’s all we’ve ever known. And before there were laws that protected workers, everyone was unarguably worse off. So why should we complain now? Well, because it’s completely sensible to hope for a better world, where people don’t have to use what little free time they have to do household work. Of course, not everyone works five days a week. Some people do three long shifts a week, while others have a four-days-on-three-days-off sort of schedule. However our weeks are arranged, full-time workers generally agree: 40 hours per week is too damn much.
