On May 1st 1890 in Paris, left-wing activists wore a red triangle:
🔻
One for 8 hours work,
one for 8 hours leisure,
one for 8 hours rest.

In my conversations with junior engineers, the issue of work hours comes up often. More often than it should, actually. But there's a lot of bad advice out there, for example "You need to work 80-hour weeks to get good." I wrote an article on why that's silly.

Ni som kan ert shit, varför är 40h/v i arbetstid #heligt idag? Det verkar vara en universell sanning. Vad är det som sätter stopp för tidsförkortning, förutom ägarnas önskan att maximera vinst. #Sverige #Arbete #Livet #Arbetsvillkor #Facket #WorkingClass #workhours #Work #union

Trying something new, as for the next 3-4 weeks I will be doing a 3 day work week and having a 4 day weekend.

An experiment to see the impact it has for the 3 working days (and most importantly yo mental health). #workhours #WorkExperiments
