I heard that back in the days, people used to just go when their work was done on the farms and there was no concept of 9-5 (these days seem 24 hours work). There used to be a lot of holidays. Is that true? If it is, then given the abundance in technology, why our work hours increased and why do we have such weird lives that we live to work?

    Aren’t you slave to your customers instead of your boss though ? Can you really afford to just close the door and go sunny side of your want to?

      Yes, in a way, but on the other hand, time invested benefits them, not their boss. They own their means of production.
