Script:
A hard day of work can bring a lot of satisfaction, but who wouldn’t rather spend their time doing whatever they wanted… or nothing?
What if no one had to work? This is just a thought experiment, but I think it’s a fun discussion! Of course, in order to have things like food, healthcare, water, plumbing, electricity, internet… and you know, everything else… work would have to get done by someone. Or by something.
Technology has already begun to affect employment and will continue to do so as more and more jobs become automated through things like AI and robotics. One study estimates that 1.4 million jobs in the U.S. will be lost to automation by the year 2032. But imagine if everything was done by technology and we were left to do whatever we wanted.
For this to work, things would still have to cost money in order to avoid people taking everything and leaving nothing for others., even though that kinda already happens now, but moving on, And we would have to get this money from our robot overlords… I mean our government.
This is called a universal basic income and is not a new concept. Many countries, including the United States, Brazil, India, and Kenya, have experimented with doing this in some form., Their studies found that this improved health and education, while reducing crime.
But the majority of these trials only included small groups of people, from a few hundred to a few thousand, with income ranging from a small percent of the average income to about $1,000 a month. In order for this to cover the living expenses of the population of an entire country, governments would have to spend a lot more money.
For instance, in the U.S., while the living wage varies greatly from state to state, the median amount is $67,700 per year. For the 258.3 million adults living there, that equals $17.5 trillion each year.
But, while a workless world may not be in our near future, we may at least see a small reduction in the amount of time we spend working. That’s right! The 5-day, 40-hour workweek could soon become a thing of the past. Some countries are trying out, or have even adopted, a 4-day work week, with the number of weekly hours ranging from 32 to 38-all while providing the same salary.,
These countries have found that working less can benefit both the employer and the employee. For instance, one study in Iceland found that working a 35 or 36 workweek led to the same or even improved productivity. Things became more streamlined-meetings that could just be emails, were just emails. And studies show that fewer working hours benefit employees’ health and well-being, such as reduced stress and exhaustion and improved sleep and family lives. It may not be a workless world we’re all dreaming of, but I’ll take a few extra hours of freedom each week!

Do you think we're working too much for too little? What do you think of automation? Do you have any ideas on how to make people work less? Let's have a respectful discussion in the comments! I hope the robot overlords like my videos...

First
Awesome video
Ya no work or job replacement
Just make sure that whatever you do is going to appease the basilisk.
I think it would be pretty cool if most of our taxes here in The States went towards reducing our living expenses rather than tax just being another expense.
YES!! EXACTLY!!
...They literally do? Unemployment insurance, SNAP, low income housing, public roads, safety regulations, medicare, public education, police/fire fighters/etc, and various other programs a lot of us benefit from. You can critique the budget allocation but our taxes AREN'T just "another expense" as you ignorantly downplay them to be.
@@Kayzewolf lol you should try living in Finland where actually our taxes go towards reducing our living expenses
@@Kayzewolf I didn't ignorantly downplay it; I intentionally downplayed it because it's not good enough for a developed country. See the comment about Finland.
@kayze what we are trying to say is that we don’t want the majority of our taxes to go to the military and instead to help us on the home front.
More pay and less hours definitely helps. I reduced my hours down to a 4 day work week and just having 1 full no responsibilities day to rest has been golden for my mental health
Also 6 hour work week have been beneficial to people health than a 8hr work week tho I think it's was 5 day work week it was tried on
Have fun living in a pod and eating the bugs.
*whats your job and how do I get it???*
@@Adrian-yw3iq be an accountant and be underpaid haha the money isnt good but i made sure i only work 4 days a week in the UK for tax purposes
A 4 day work week would give a lot of people more time to connect with family and friends. It also allows us to have a longer rest from work thus we look forward to going to work.
4 hour shifts included
@@geezunit 4 hour shifts? How would you get anything done if you have a busy job?
@@ryanhumphreys4389 it’s a joke

UBI is something that definitely should be tried by more countries. It's not a flawless plan, but it could work in some places.
And working less seems like a logical step. It's like the quote says: work smarter, not harder (or longer).
paid in bitcoin😄
As someone who, lives in the US and dosent have a job even tho I'm 18 and can't drive I can say that I think people are severely overworked. At least from seeing my dad work a minimum of 50 or 70 hours over 5 or maybe 6 days a week with him being a Bread Route driver for the counties and cities around where we live, I'd say he's severely overworked. To the point of his schedule is loosely like this:
Wake up at 2am, grab a quick snack and lunch cooler before getting ready and leaving.
Do paperwork for about an hour, on Thursday morning get the shipments placed he needs for each store the following week.
Load up the bread truck, work 3am to around 5 or 6pm eating lunch while on his way to the next store.
Do some more paperwork taking stock for everything he couldn't deliver due to them being damaged, and clock out.
Come home, eat dinner.
go to bed around 8 or 9pm, and do that again tomorrow.
It's gotten to the point where he knows he physically can't keep working like this much longer. He's been working there for anywhere from 7 to 9 years now. He knows it's not good for him mentally and physically to keep working like this. I'm fairly certain at some point his body going to end up just crashing and forcing him to sleep for like a day or so because of how little sleep he gets and how little time he gets to auctually spend on his days off relaxing.
With the little days he has off in a week most of those are spent working on things around the house, working on his car and getting it fixed, or helping my mom with running errands.
I hear alot of stories like this. He's running himself 'ragged'... you can get away with working like that in your 20s, 30s and into your mid 40s... after that things catch up to you physically.
that's because he is carrying leeches, without the leeches he wouldn't have to work that much.
If you retired early do you see yourself not working and just sitting back relaxing the rest of your life or will you still look for a part time job?
Not needing to work means more personal time and with that, time for hobbies and things you actually enjoy doing. Being taken care of without a job isn’t because you wish to sit around all day, but rather so you can still maintain that creative side of you that you’re forced to lock away with an every-day 9-5 job that doesn’t pay you all that much.
…or you just really like sitting around with Netflix
@@MeemahSN couldn’t have agreed more
Lol retirement, that's funny!
At what age do you see yourself retiring?
Part time
I’m a huge fan of the weekend Wednesday work week. You work Monday Tuesday and Thursday Friday. This way you only work 2 days at a time with one or two days between each work block. I personally think this maximizes the energy I have through the week. I mean think about it, even if you work 4 days a week, that first day is still going to feel like a slog as you still got a long set of work days ahead of you. Whereas with this you’re never more than a couple days away from a day off. I mean you’re always either on a day right after some time off, or on a day right before another day off. And having that mid-week refresher helps replenish your energy for the later part of the week.
Of course different people could go for different weekdays off depending on their personal tastes and situations, but weeken Wednesday would be perfect for me personally
I wish there were more options to work less. Seems like most part-time jobs are low-paying…but every full time job is 40+ hours.
Why can’t I have a high-skilled, high-paying job, and work part time??
Then as many people as possible should be working on research projects, there will always be something to improve that combines science with human creativity, we would advance a lot faster
unless those research projects are about 'proving a flat earth'😉
My country started a work experiment as well: instead of 5-day work week, we are trying 6-day and even 7-day work weeks while providing the same salary!
For me and many others, not only is it a 6-day or 7-day week, it is also 12+ hours of work per day~ While providing very little salary~
@@ZeroGunzRoyCHP Oh, you want to have a break? Go to the toilet? Well, you can forget about it. Eat only before and after work, and wear diapers during work to no pause for a single moment!
I believe that something greatly needs to change about the way money is perceived and distributed in order to aid the coming future of robotic advancement
Using all digital money would work. Get rid of the physical stuff
Honestly I have a strange opinion about it.
I think automation will be inevitable, which can result in many things in the way we transition towards it.
If we make too fast, then most of the world's population will be jobless and in a economic problem that can turn entire cities to slums, however I do also believe that if we make the transition well, poverty could disappear and instead of material profits, philosophy, arts and science could become the real valuables of the age. Heck, maybe even money will disappear someday and all we would do is search for the progression of our ideas, like the next chapter of your favorite story or how to make a homemade big bang!
I do think that automation is the future, but we still have time to find a great way to implement it. While this happens, i will divert myself with the thought of 1 dollar diamonds and fanfics going to insane levels.
This is basically what i had in mind
why did you rip my brotherin in half
I love the idea of a 4 day work week. It would help so much with home management because right now it feels like I go home from work to do more work. It would also help people do more professional development like going back to school or learning marketable skills. People would also have more time to rest, exercise, and spend time socializing with friends and loved ones which we know improves work performance because you have more balance. More vacation not tied to federal holidays would be great too. I would love to take long weekends going to new cities or federal/state parks.
You know, watching this, I think I can see the benefits to having to work a few less hours in a work week, but as someone who works a full-time job, I don't think that a shorter work week is necessary for me. I know that some people would like something like that, but I personally like working a full week of 40 hours. Also, I don't think that we need to replace human workers with robots in all jobs. It may help in some aspects of a business, but no bucket of bolts can replace the true, hardworking nature of a human employee who works hard and does good, honest work!
"works hard and does good, honest work!"
I have seen people that could get replaced by a machine multiple times over, and not because the machine is inhumanly good at its job.
@@theonewholearns2711 It's true, there are a number of Squidwards out there in the working world.
@@lordcooler1703 Nah, Squidward does his job, just not enthusiastically, they're more like lazy Patricks
@@theonewholearns2711 true
@@theonewholearns2711 that is very apt.
Removing work all together isn't a really good idea because if your life is healthy enough, work can in fact become satisfying. The feeling of achieving a job well done and relaxing knowing you did your part fantastically well really helps improve your self esteem. If work were to go away, people would become lazier, less motivated. I do agree that work hours should be lessened, that will give people more time to achieve the healthier life that will allow them to actually enjoy work
Remember that working is still an option and some people like having more money than just the bare minimum
i think people will always do some amount of work. think about why you take out the trash, you don’t get paid for it, but it makes your life better in some way. when people don’t take out the trash its usually because of a mental or physical health issue. i think the future of work will follow this idea with people putting more work into advancing their communities
I like the idea of less work hours but more productivity. Where I live we have 5-6 days per week in most corporate jobs. If that changed to 4-5 days, it would benefit a lot of people. Work is certainly important and not just from an economic perspective. I think it helps one feel more fulfilled and if a person suffers less stress during work hours, it could boost that feeling of fulfillment.
I work to live, not live to work. Believe me, I can find fulfillment in so many other avenues.
i love working. i even spend 2 hours every weekend sweeping up gutters filled with trash. no one pays me to do it. i just hate seeing garbage littered all over my city.
Theres one field of work that robots will most likely never replace: The arts, including music, animation, visual, etc.
Arobot dj be like BEEP BOOP BUuUu
have you _seen_ what dall·e 2 can do
Nah AI is definitely coming for art.
@@hecko-yes Something noted by 2kliksphilip is that it makes the same mistakes as humans do such as not getting that extra bar in the middle of a bicycle's body just right, though I don't think it thinks anything near like how WE think, it is very good at pretending that it does.
Reminds me of that future dystopia anime called Vivy: Fluorite's Eye Song where the main character's a robot given a niche to perform music
More automation means more repair jobs. Machines eventually break down, or software needs debugging. It would also require alot more designers to come up with new ways to use the automation. It wouldn't be that automation takes all the jobs, but rather automation would take all the physical and dangerous jobs. An acutual person working at a fast food restauraunt would b a thing of the past, other than maybe one person to oversee and quality check the automation. People would be needed more and more in the jobs that design, program, and maintain the automation. We wouldn't lose our jobs, we would just have to find different ones. It would require alot of retraining, but governments already have job assistance training in place.
I honestly like my work. It's a stress reliever (I work as a kennel tech) and also a workout for someone who likes to get physical. I wouldn't mind a base income salary so I don't have to sweat about rent, but I would be depressed if I didn't have my demanding tasks now. Heck when I was on maternity leave, I developed PPD from the sudden lack of purpose and it didn't relieve itself until I got back into the field I love. I can see cases of depression easily spiking if a total UBI based standard of living becomes a thing. Not all jobs are terrible.
A four-day work week would be awesome! Of course, it's important we don't end up in a completely workless society...else, we could very well end up in a WALL-E style world where we're just surviving as opposed to living.
I work 9 hours a day 4 days a week and I love having the extra day off. I can't imagine going back
In some schools here we have a 4 day class week, with Wednesday being a break day. Safe to say it's easier and better
The problem is people will always have to work
Who's going to "Work" to repair and maintain machinery, computers, robots, etc
The robots.
A lot of factory and warehouse jobs (in the U.S. at least) are now on a four-day work week, which means longer shifts (ten hours per day), but saves in other ways: Driving to and from work only four times a week instead of five saves both time and gas, and eating a packed lunch and/or vending machine snacks four days instead of five is better for health.
Of course, there are down sides as well. Plant managers try to organize rotating four-day schedules into a seven-day week of production, which doesn't come out evenly, and not every shift is going to have the same number of employees. So one day, the plant is short-staffed, and the next day, the parking lot and break rooms are over-crowded. This leads to a lot of mandatory overtime on the off-days, which means during busy seasons, you end up back on a five-day work week, but still ten-hour shifts. This can be exhausting as hell, but on the bright side, that's ten hours worth of overtime pay at time-and-a-half.
"Click here to watch this video on people getting more depressed" best way of putting that together
I’m excited to see robots and A.I. take majority of jobs
Same.
From my perspective, it's a double edged sword. Sure a life where work is optional sounds like paradise, but who owns/controls the robots/ai/tech?
I think it is definitely important to watch where the money goes as we continue to replace jobs with automation.
I think it could end up being beneficial for employers and employees, but we have to make sure that not all of the money saved goes to the employers, otherwise poverty rates would skyrocket.
Things would be done the same way, but rather than under a paycheck and a lord, with fear of losing that job, with all the others insecurities that our life under capitalism have, they would be done by people WANTING to do that, loving that bc it's what they love and bc it can help people. If a med student survive all the years of studying, with a rent to pay, with bad scheduled exams and all limitations of university it's because he/she loves it, not because of money. For the other exhausting jobs the thing is: if it's really feasible (like carpenter, bricklayer of whatever) there would be someone loving it and doing it bc they like. If not, the society can organize making random people doing the job but for a very limited time, in order to not cause damage to anyone, and everyone will have to do a short time of a tiring work sometimes. Where possible, automation. No lord will ever help us build a better future, any technology will be used to increase productivity and lord income.
Haven’t worked in years. It’s amazing.
This was a very interesting subject I was wondered about
In the past, we could count on new job creation but no longer. Clearly automation is set to quickly surpass human quality and productivity in every regard. Here's a challenge: What work will people do when robotics and AI do everything? UBI is useful for a transition period, but once automation and AI lead to true abundance there will be no need for money.
There will always be limited supplies so a form of currency would be the best way to let people chose what they want
Your thoughts are always so interesting
I think less work hours would be a great idea. If stress, health issues, and crime all decrease while productivity still increases, why wouldn't we? It'd be putting in less work for even more of a reward. That being said, I think the work week/time should be shortened, not removed completely. It's likely there will always be jobs that require a lot of prior education that humans need to do (creative jobs, engineering jobs designing the automated systems that do other work, etc.) Most people also like to feel as if they've accomplished something, and there are many jobs out there that people like doing (because of routine, innovation, personal interest, importance, etc.) I doubt everyone would want to stop working completely because of this.
Also, I think UBI is going to become inevitable (provided we don't kill off the planet first). Productivity has been and is continuing to increase, helping out all of us (aside from those blocked from the benefits due to inequality and suchlike; although, if we actually decided to improve, so much of that could be fixed). With less work to be done and continuously more rewards, it makes sense to fairly distribute that reward to people.
I don't mind the idea of 4 work days frankly.
Interesting study,it probably help with the relaxing your mind and reducing headache,plus I think less work and/or more time to be with friends, family,self, ect. Would be great to the entire world. Not stop working but workless will be amazing 😍
If you think about it, though, companies would be paying the same whether they hired a human being to do a job, or replaced the human with a robot, and then paid an equal amount into a UBI system to cover the living expenses of their former employee. In fact, since robots can work in harsher climates and don't take bathroom breaks, the company would be saving money on heat/ac and water bills.
If the people who run the companies are smart, they'll realize that the alternative is every company's former employees to just be broke, which means nobody (including themselves) has any customers.
In addition to automation taking over more work, we need to take into account the further extension of healthspan and lifespan. Also, we need to begin to separate the idea and concept of money as it relates to hard resources, such as iron ore, water, and arable land.
Currently working 3-days, 12-hour shifts. I love having 4 days away from the office! Sadly, my company has decided to remove my shift, so I'll be bumped back to the standard 5-days 8-hour shift soon. Very unhappy with this decision.
Kurzgesgat already did a video about this in significantly more detail. It’s like I was reading a college level research paper in a visual manner but this is a high school essay in comparison lol.
Too much for too little. Especially retail and fast food industries.
I believe things like reducing the working hours to 4 hour work days and increasing wages would help people in their working lives. As well as things like open-source bots and workers owning industries and factories, farms, and land by the workers who work there democratically would be a great option too.
I always enjoyed three day weekends because a.) the week seemed to go by faster and b.) I don’t feel as drained by the end. That extra day to sleep and do other things feels nice and by then I feel ready to go back into the office the next day. I hate Sundays because I never feel rested enough to go back. I’m always pining for one more day.
I wish you searched up state to state the median wage and then the cost of living. You’ll understand the frustration of many just trying to survive
Based Blocko not even mentioning socialism, yet supporting socialism.
To be clear I don't think Blocko means to talk about Socialism, but they are talking about adjacent/overlapping topics.
$1000 a month wouldn’t replace my job, but it would certainly reduce stress by a LOT because I wouldn’t have to worry quite as much about bills and could get out of debt sooner… I think that, ideally, societal systems should reduce the REQUIRED work for individuals as much as possible; but even if no person ever needed to work, people would still want to do things. I don’t think the majority of people would want to become like the people in WALL-E who just became media and food consuming potatoes. Some might… but I know if I had no requirement to work in life, I’d have a good deal of projects and outdoor stuff on my list!
it might be a thought experiment but some points could be helpful if implemented
The test with UBI is also running in Germany.
If I remember right it was about 1200 or 1300 Euro.
I also applied but didn't got it.
Yes, I think we absolutely working too much and not enjoying life enough. I dream of only having to work 10-20 hour work weeks. It's not that I want to laze around all day. I have a lot of hobbies, side projects, and things I'd like to learn, but it's very hard to find the time to get to. It's very frustrating. Life just goes by too quickly.
I realize I could have it much worse. So despite my frustrations, I'm still thankful for what I got. Mixed feelings.
UBI could be used to eliminate duplication of the social safety net. Government pension, welfare, and disability in some countries like Canada are basically the same horse but just with a different color.
I think our culture needs to start transitioning to the belief that there's no real reason to work when everything is automated. I'm surprised not even 2M will be automated by 2032 - that seems low given the jumps being made in the creative space with AI: writing, art, coding, etc. Robots will compound that.
The UBI being a massive expense is just confusing. Sure the government would need to hand out trillions, but what are all those companies doing with the money they don't have to give to employees?? It's not like the money would come from nowhere. The net gain/loss should ideally be even and not cause additional expense. If corporations can function without workers, then maybe what they would've spent on workers should just be funneled straight into UBI.
If UBI is handled this way, I don't think it would even affect inflation.
Even after automatisation there will still be work to be done by humans.
Advancements in creative space have nothing to do with it. AI being able to write and draw won't help in a factory.
Most money not spent on employees still goes somewhere. Taxes, bills, supplies and material etc. plenty of expenses.
With automatisation saving money prices will drop, resulting in less money going to the company in total.
Even then taking money from companies won't be nearly enough to fund the UBI. You still need more, money which will come mainly from taxes. So working people will still need to pay just so the rest can live comfortably without having to do any work.
UBI seems like an awesome idea, bit it's too utopic and unrealistic for today's world
@@lazarskrbic Of course it's unrealistic. That's kind of the point. It'll continue to be unrealistic until changes are made that make it viable. It's a massive change to how the economy functions and would require fundamental changes to it.
Also, if money is being saved from automation then couldn't that also result in lowering the cost of living, making UBI more affordable?
I'm no economist so I just legitimately don't know why rerouting the savings of the companies to the pockets of citizens wouldn't work. The cash flow is the same but just in different directions.
@@notgate2624 companies simply don't have enough money to support such a system. Besides, if you just take away money from companies and give it out, what benefits are there to owning that company in the first place? Why would anyone want their business to be a piggy bank for unemployed?
@@lazarskrbic but will those be accessible jobs for the masses and not highly skilled jobs requiring degrees?
@@kingkong-gn6oi which jobs?
Less hours with the same pay is vital right now and I wish more companies around the world would adopt it. In the future I hope that my grandchildren or great grandchildren will never have to work a day in their lives.
We need the 4 day week but our corporate overlords will not allow it
Well the best person to answer this WOULD be a UA-cam!
Nah, I'm just kiddin' you're a great guy
I think instead of things being workless, we should push for people to gain knowledge and focus on skilled labor rather than non-skilled labor. Automation has been removing a lot of non-skilled labor, so we should help people get an education for a skilled labor job. They're a lot harder to automate and provide much more income and satisfaction. Skilled labor can also be much more diverse, as it touches all sorts of fields from medicine, animals, engineering, research, programming, etc. I think it's better to wait a lot longer before Universal Income is implemented because we can still utilize and apply ourselves if we learn a skill.
I wish this could come soon
Universal wages is a short term fix but it is not a realistic solution because people need to work. Working can also reduce anxiety or depression, but too much work isn’t good either. As a conservative, I think that overtime work shouldn’t be mandated at all. It should all be optional for those who want to work and send home people by the end of the day who doesn’t want overtime
Truck drivers, emergency services personnel (cops, firefighters etc.) watching this like 😂
can we all talk about the fact that the median wage is 67,700$ in my country not even a doctor(the most payed job in our country) with maximum wage can get that
Main reason we don't have some supplies is because people got too lazy while the govt took care of those who couldn't work due to Covid-19. While people like me who works in a hospital busted our butts off while dodging a horrible virus that killed millions. It should have been the other way around. The govt should of helped us ESSENTUAL workers and made the ones who lost work to be so desperate to maintain their lifestyle that they'd flood the factories and restaurants and such to get back to some normalcy.
A workless world would make me feel like sometjings just... Off, like something just isnt right, i just need to do something like work to get rid of that feeling
Life noggin I really like your videos
4 day work with the extra holiday placed between the 2-2 day work is best I think
I would also say that people naturally, at one point or another, like to work. And thus, if everybody didnt have to work to survive, we would still have people living in healthcare and such, but because they want to. Simple. :P
I think the 4 day and 36 - 38 hour work week is a good idea for the whole WORLD!
Just realized "Hey there" has same effect as "hello there". Minus Kennobi
There are some works that are a hobby to others, like arts, if AI were to take over that, which is already started well it will be nothing for the artists in the future, a lot of people will not be able to appreciate their work if AI can do better than them.
Welcome to life noggin
4 day work week with lesser hours would be great! Not a 4 day work week that with 10 hour shifts for each day.
The fact that people don't even know what they would do if they didn't have to work shows just how far our societal work obsession has gone
self driving cars vs. road rage and how humans will react
These things have been validated for decades. The issue is getting those in charge to implement the practice.
Smart blocko
I like how they didnt just say "no thats impossible you dont know how anything works"
They said due too the fact that the average median living wage is sixty seven thousand per year the thousand dollar government welfare isnt enuff for most people
I only have too pay utility and half the price for food
Finally somebody explained why i can not work and still gain money
This is the way👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. Psychologically speaking this is the best for human beings mental state and it effects everything else in life. It's very important to know how things like this works and that not everyone has to work the same amount of hours to make the same amount of money. Also the robots taking over physical labor jobs is extremely good for people so that they can take better care of their physical and mental health. They can find better ways to utilize them by owning their own or buying parts of the robots and making a system where we can gain income through them.
Nowadays its hard to find a job I respect bcs I always think machines can do what I do and that makes me feel like a machine myself so I quit.
"A hard day of work can bring a lot of satisfaction"Can someone please tell me if I read that right or not and I'm just hallucinating lol?Like who tf gets satisfaction from WORK WTF!?
1 am a cook in Greece. The work ethic here is 6 to 7 days a week 9 to 10 hours a day for 900 to 1100 Euros Income (almost same amount in dollars)
1:26 "From a small percentage of the average income to a 1000 dollars a month."
1000 dollars a month is also only a small percentage of my income :-P
I am one of the software developer who automates manual processes so we all have to work less.
I think UBI, and/or game economies will be the future
we alll need to work but we akk want rest, adopting this new work week will relief many Americans and they will not be burnout and lower employees taking mental breaks
Jesus, $67,000 per year? That's almost 3 times what I make, and I manage to keep all my bills paid and still have enough left over for food and fun. Where did that figure even come from?
We are absolutely working faaaaaaar too much in life for nothing. It's not perfect but I'll take 4 days over 5 any day!
currently I work at the restaurant washing dishes and do... all the hard work (preparing ingredients, trashong stuff...) 5 days in a week day...! but I chose to do it so.... yeah...... I hope one day the robots would do all the dish washing....
You know there have been people who want to work but DUE to the rising prices and the companies not paying a living wage because no one these days can afford 10 to 14$ not in this economy
What if you actually want a job tho? Could you still keep if it you wanted or enjoyed doing what you did for a living?
Eventually I do believe no one will need to work
Canada is on the way to UBI :)
let’s go brooo
We really should stop having in person meetings were you get talked at for 15 minutes with no reason or option to contribute
I believe that we should work for the things we need and want but That’s Just Me.
Jobs that will exist for a long time included
Architects, developers, and artists
The 3 minute run time is very limiting
A lot of UA-cam, projects and creative labour. Also depression.
We have a basic income in germany aswell :)
and these are for every german citizen that doesnt gets enough or no money from work. And even more the government even pays the home for jobless people
What about the great resignation?
Second I love this channel
My multinational corporation somehow "can't afford" reduced hours. Pfft yeah ok. In the United States, we have this live to work culture instead of work to live. Hopefully that changes. Yes to UBI and reduced hours. I would love to actually enjoy more of my life.
Too much for too less pay we need a smaller work week and that way we might be able to hire more people and we can rest better and plan other things this needs to happen soon cause I want an easier work week.
