The article is dated back in February. I'm not seeing it pick up steam. I'm seeing it being forgotten.
Regardless, we should really use the correct phrasing here. We're pushing for a 32 hour workweek standard. Calling it 4 day is stupid because everyone just says four 10hr days.
I always see this, a 4 day week being equated to 4 - 10 and it always leaves me baffled that people think we have to work 40 hours. No we fucking don't. 40 hour work week was implemented when automation was but a fraction of what it is today. Heck one can even argue that we can half the working hours to 20 and still be fine.
Yep, agreed 100%. 32hr workweek should just be a first step or transition to 24, then even less. Automation, AI, and everything should benefit all of us not just the billionaires.
I already work 4 10s. Factory work is what it is. Sometimes we get forced for Fridays too. Hell, overtime is the only way to make any real money. I don't have a point, just sharing my experience.
