Time wasted wooing clients and attempting to impress the boss. Amazingly, recent reports show just the opposite. It seems that the US department of Labor claims that the average workweek has been steadily decreasing for the past 50 years. Since 1967 the national average workweek has dropped from 38 hours to a somewhat leisurely 30.5 hours. It seems this technological revolution has not only made our lives simpler, but it has given us more time off.
Computers run our offices today.
We mere humans are just here for damage control and temporary check ups. For centuries grandfathers have been telling next of kin of the hard times they had to endure growing up. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but they may just have a point if the numbers are accurate. See for yourself and you may want to give grandpa the time of day next time he starts reminiscing.
