4 Day Work Week, Time saver? Crisis Starter?

Months ago there was the debate on whether working a 4 day work week is better then the 5 day work week. I know what we all want to say, “hell yes.” Truth of the matter is, yes in all honestly I think it is so much better. How many people do you know procrastinate all their work until the very last minute? I bet it’s around 90%. Slacker!

 

This debate can go on and on for ages but it all comes down to the money hungry power seeking ego maniacs that want the best and nothing but the best for themselves. Selfish pigs! There lies the problem. Our generation is just not that way. We are the lets work as little as possible and make the most money we can generation. Amazing philosophy but how far will it get us? Unfortunately it has gotten us a little bit of no where. That no where led to unbelievable debt and a huge rise in bankruptcies. Bankruptcies were so common that the government was caused to put even more limitations on them. Us Americans take advantage of that policy, it’s not meant as a get out of jail free card! If you are given a fresh start, damnit you better learn from your past mistakes. You have 8 years to suffer until you can file again if you don’t learn.

 

8 years? Seriously? Come on now, why are we giving people second and third and fourth chances. If you can’t figure out how to manage your money after the first time then you deserve to live on the street and beg for money. Oh and don’t come begging to me, I know the difference between you distinguished lazy asses and the real needy people. Frauds! You know you have been scammed one time or another and it sticks with you, especially when it smacks your wallet in the face.

 

Back on track here, the 4 day work week no matter how much I would love to have it, would just not work in our generation. Maybe back in the baby boomer era with all those boomers working day in and day out to support their 50 kids, but now, NO WAY! We are all extremely lazy and believe it or not, your boss knows it. You can hide all you want but your boss knows the truth but doesn’t care because your work gets done on time, for the most part. If it doesn’t then you should just quit, live at your parent’s house and be a video game tester. Then we can put a picture of you in the dictionary next to the word slacker.

 

Moral of the story, we caused this crisis. We caused this economic struggle. It is now a “we” problem we have to fix. Yes, that’s right I said WE have to fix it. Stop asking the government for money. We are like children asking mommy and daddy, who worked their asses off, for rent money because we are too lazy to work. Listen, there are jobs out there that are hiring. Suck it up, take the job that you don’t want but need, and get this economy back on track. You can stroke your ego later when this country no longer needs money from Uncle Sam because you are paying $80k worth of taxes on your $150k salary.  

 

Tip of the day: Save a dollar a day, every little bit counts.
