You don't NEED a weekend. The concept is barely 100 years old.

i mean there are very few things you need.

here are some things you don't need:

• friends and family
• fresh air
• bathing
• happiness
• a healthy diet
• government
• an economic system
• a partner
• a house
• a bed
• grocery stores

so many things didn't exist 100 years ago, too:

• the abolition of child labor
• the widespread adoption of the 3-meal-day
• women's right to vote in the US
• the great depression

it's a stupid fuckin post

Lean in to that sigma grindset, boss babe.

kill it with fire

this is why we cannot let Threads anywhere near Lemmy. I'll go as far as migrating to lemmygrad if i bloody have to

The only reason the concept of a weekend was implemented was because that was the same time the 40-hour work week was implemented.

before the 40-hour work week existed, people could work and rest whenever they needed to.

But now yes, we do indeed need weekends.

This guy can take 2 of my work days

Thanks, I hate it.

You are right. Because if I quit working the weekdays then they become the weekend.
