Is the third 8 really play?
I don’t think so.
I think its more than that.
I think it should be called chores.
For me it’s grocery shopping, cooking, making appointments and going to appointments, walking the dog, laundry, selling stuff on marketplace, working on my side hustle among many other things.
I don’t really see this as play.
And do we really get 8 hours?
No. Not with my commute time and an overtime hour it’s s more like 5 or 6.
As I’m writing this I’m starting to feel claustrophobic and boxed in and a little frazzled because after looking at how much time i really do have it isnt a lot.
Trying to cram everything into five or six hours a day is ridiculous.
It’s not fair.
It’s not right.
So why do we do we do it?
It seems like my life is mostly work right now.
I don’t like it.
I definately need to work on my life/work balance.
Another question I have is why has this been the norm for so long?
It definately isn’t working for me even though it’s suppose to but this is what I have been taught. It’s supposed to work because it worked for my parents and their parents.
But did it? Or is it because they just conformed and didnt say anything because back then you kept your mouth shut.
The more I think about it the more I question why we do things the way we do.
It’s time I start looking at different solutions or ways of thinking.
The reason why I think the 32 hour work week won’t work is because different people need different things.
I need more time to pursue my dreams. Time is an big issue for me.
This is my issue, not my employeers.
Almost time for work. Lol. Gotta run.
