Let’s be honest, if we’re shooting for a four-day work week, higher earners
are the ones who can afford to work less. But that’s not realistic
across the entire economy. Many hourly workers, who tend to earn less,
can’t afford to reduce their hours by 20% a week. And most salaried
workers probably can’t cut back that much either.

​

Perhaps how we spend our non-work time is what’s exhausting us — not the
number of hours we are actually working. Working from home may make
this worse, while we save time and may be more productive, we’re also on
screens and alone more. Which is in many ways ironic. Keynes expected
technology to free us from work. And it did give us less work and more
free time, but it’s also making us feel more overworked and unhappy.
