Do you recognize the five-day and eight-hour work system?

The five-day and eight-hour work system itself is extremely inhuman. You can't recognize this bad system just because there is a worse system, otherwise it's like saying that being shot is better than being buried alive, so I accept being shot.

The Scandinavian enterprise where I work now strictly implements the eight-hour working system, which literally means nine to five and basically does not work overtime. Lunch time counts as working time. However, I still only have 2-3 hours to really control myself every day. I really feel that I can't get rid of living in this Foucault-style control society every day, because truly advanced control no longer prohibits and binds the controlled, but allows the controlled to do only what the controller requires-migrant workers either go to work or rest, and the rest continue to work.

Because I live far from the office, if I want to arrive at 9 o'clock, 10 should leave at least at 8 o'clock. Before that, I will have breakfast, shit, wash my face and do some simple exercise. These things add up to more than an hour, which means that I have to get up at 7 o'clock anyway. 10 Going out at 8 o'clock, no matter riding a motorcycle or scooter, you have to endure the complicated road conditions in Shanghai for 50 minutes in the morning rush hour. Arriving at the office, people are already very tired. It's hot recently, so I need to change clothes. If you don't ride a bike, you have to sweat when you walk back and forth. The subway space is too depressing and uncomfortable. What I hate most is that it rains early in the morning. You can imagine your mood when you go out to work in this weather.

Morning is still the most energetic time of the day, but because breakfast is eaten earlier, it must be before 1 1: 30. Because I have reflux esophagitis, I should be extra careful when eating. Eating too much or being too spicy and greasy will inevitably cause chest pain, and this pain lasts for an hour. Rain or shine, I will go for a walk after lunch. Although the boss is a little picky about this, if I eat well and don't move, I will be more sleepy after lunch.

It's almost 12: 30 when I get back to my desk. This time is the most uncomfortable time of the day. This state of being in a daze but unable to sleep after a meal often lasts at least 1 hour. At 13: 30- 14: 00, people's physical strength finally recovered, making it difficult to concentrate. After all, I am away from home. So I spent most of the afternoon fishing, went out to have a smoke, ate some snacks and fruits, surfed the Internet for a while, and worked after 4 o'clock. If there is a deadline that day, the quality of the output will always be my own. When I get off work, I will always worry about whether I will get into trouble tomorrow because of the poor quality of the things I hand in. In any case, it must be the most pleasant 60 minutes in a day from work at 5 o'clock to cooking dinner 1 hour. I go home early, so the main road can drive much faster than in the morning. It's only 5: 40 when I get home, so I can go out for a walk for more than an hour.

However, good times are always short-lived. Dinner will be prepared around 7 o'clock, and it's almost 8: 30 after eating a good meal and doing some housework. I never stay up late. Generally, people are sleepy after 65,438+00, that is to say, they are completely free after 65,438+0.5 hours before going to bed, but at this time, people have entered a state of rest and there is no way to force themselves to study or do anything serious. Although I went to bed early, I was sleepy with the older ones. This cycle is repeated for five days. What can I do on weekends besides eating, drinking and playing computer and mobile phones? I think many people don't really take the initiative to lie flat and be dead houses, but they are really beyond their power.

My biggest experience in these years is that no matter Chinese enterprises or foreign enterprises, those who can take the lead are not necessarily much higher than their subordinates in terms of brain power and knowledge, but they must be advanced humanoid batteries with the longest battery life, and can work for eight hours without staring. Therefore, white-collar workers changed the form of coolies, and finally they fought for physical strength. It will be even bigger in the future, and someone must take stimulants for promotion. It is precisely because all the people who can climb to the top in this workplace game are freaks, and their energy is different from that of ordinary people. It is even more impossible for them to have any sympathy for ordinary migrant workers who will cry bitter and tired, and it is even more impossible to reform this unreasonable system.

To sum up, the eight-hour working system still occupies too much effective time in our day, seriously reduces our spare time, brings a lot of short-term and long-term harm to our body and mind, and directly leads to many problems in family, social communication and self-development of urbanites.
