Employees of the world, there is a phrase to describe the vanishing amount of personal time we seem to get outside of work. The 4 Hour Life is the reason that we feel these schedule-based woes. This is the theory that most full-time workers have only four hours of freedom per day after subtracting work, commuting, personal duties, and sleep from the equation.

It’s hard to make those hours count when we’ve got our jobs to be concerned with, as most of us learn all too soon in the journey of adulthood. As a result, we’ve got to steal back those extra moments whenever we can. Looking at memes is the perfect way to do this; it can be subtle enough to do on the clock, and it’s entertaining, too. Ones that are work-related are an added bonus, because it makes it even more of an act of mini-rebellion. That’s what we tell ourselves, anyway.
