4-hour Working Day = 4 Hours Of Freedom!

By bean_j20 August 31, 2020 30 answers Last updated August 31, 2020

We did not sit at school and university for more than 4-5 hours. I wonder if I should go on a 4-hour day? However, 4 free hours are quite good, there is no real time for hobbies and personal life full-time. I realized that I don't like sitting in front of the computer for 8 hours and foreigners cursing me on the phone (I work in a call center). Besides, I don't have the energy and desire for anything outside of work and almost after work I only have dinner, watch 1 movie and it's time to go to bed.

   You are right to the point of pain, but the question of pay remains.

   That's right, but the pay won't be enough. Otherwise, everyone would work and whistle at 4 o'clock.

   That's why I work 6 hours as a waitress, yes, but then I have a second job as a freelancer. My income is decent to afford my own car and live on my own. However, I can't afford not to work a day.

   5, yes, I live with ours and do not pay rent. Anyway, working in a call center does not make you rich, why waste my time? And to become a manager in a call center, it is difficult to get out of outsourcing.

   Very good, but then you will have less money. Elementary mathematics. A colleague in the office works half a day, ie. four hours. She says she insisted on personal freedom. Very nice, but as far as I understand, she lives in her own apartment, which, given her age, she did not buy alone. When you don't have to think about nonsense like rents / loans, it becomes easier to defend your personal space. And finally, if a person asks you what you do with your freedom, it doesn't turn out to be just drinking a beer in the park. Not that it's bad, but maybe it's better to make money?

   Yes, but there comes a time when you have to stop living with mom and dad and be an independent person. You wrote "we haven't sat in school and university for more than 4-5 hours", which seems to mean that you have already graduated from university ... so isn't it time? Correct me if I am wrong. Otherwise, off topic, I have noticed that Sofia's children find it harder and later to leave their parents, some even after their girlfriend gets pregnant (or themselves) and want, do not want to have to take matters into their own hands and grow up. . Those from other cities, if they want to continue their studies, have to move to a bigger city, where they live in dormitories and live from 18-19 years old, some even at 14 - after seventh grade.

   Every Sunday I think about how not to work a single day in my life, because I have had a busy weekend and I am pressured by work depression. Well, I haven't invented it yet ... Asparuh.

   It's great, as long as you have that opportunity. And I want to work half, for half the money, but if I reduce to 3-4 hours, my income will fall to 1/5 :(

   I worked a 4-hour day. The good thing about this is that you don't leave all day.

   Do it at 6 o'clock, because 4 o'clock means tr. experience only half a year. At 6 the insurance is complete.

   They told you clearly about the money. If you are going to work 4 hours a day, at least during the other 4 do something valuable. Read books, enroll in some courses, get some qualifications, learn a craft. Otherwise, do not leave yourself to the whims of fate. Will you live with your parents all your life? If I were in their place, I would ask you to rent so that you can learn in time that not everything is a given.

   My advice at the moment is to take a break from studying, to study, and to try to make some money for rainy days. When the crisis comes and layoffs start, you will look for a job, but there will be none. If not, then with what you have learned and experience you will reduce the work to 6 hours a day at least. The system is such that one cannot be lazy. If we are lucky, in 10 years they will introduce a 6-hour working day or a 4-day one.

   9 and I have been alone in a dormitory at the university for 4 years and another 2 abroad for a master's degree. I worked separately there again. I couldn't see anything interesting because I was tired after work, and on the weekends I didn't have time to clean and cook. And I didn't know anyone there before I went. And for rent I would work 4-6 hours plus freelance on the Internet. 8 hours I would work alone 100% from home or 4 in the office, 4 at home. I have thyroid disease and I get tired easily, besides I have a little stress of being screwed by stupid Americans for 8 hours a day (they are the most impudent on the phone).

   8 I'll tell you what I do - more moments with relatives, friends (who are on vacation or party timers like me), malls, movies, mountain walks, and I have energy and time for fitness. When you spend the whole day in the office and come home late in the morning, you are beaten. Especially me with my thyroid (I need a lot of sleep). At one point I had no personal life and lived a work-home and vice versa. By working in a call center for 8 hours I break my nerves to make money on a cooperative, how much will I save? I got panic attacks from these stakes.

   A 4-hour working day is justified only if you are still studying, and not fictitiously, as is the case in most cases in Bulgaria (students, but have not stepped on a lecture once, for example). In all other cases it is pure laziness. There is nothing to lie about. Now you are okay, you live with mom and dad, probably your bills are covered, ie. everything you earn is for spending (or at least a large part of it), but there will come a time in the not too distant future when you have to bear all these expenses yourself. This is in case you don't want to be a burden to them for the rest of your life, of course. There is something else - working 4 hours a day will increase costs. Free time increases dramatically in this case and you will hardly stay at home all the time, in other words you will go out more and spend more. Yes, you will have freedom, you will rest most of the time,

   By 18: What career in outsourcing and call centers has been chasing you? They close more doors than they open. Whether I will be hired at IBM as a back office accountant is still not a cathode, but you are 1 in 200 service personnel! Normal companies even consider call center managers to be nothing special and not true professionals. In the United States, people without a university or even a high school work in call centers. You can only grow to another call center. In addition, most of the people who work in such places and in sales are people without souls. Well, I don't like being one of 100-200 people in a barn office!

   Hello, author! For me, if you have the opportunity, go for less hours if you can afford it right now. Don't pay attention to the people who reproach you! Most are like that because they can't afford to be in your shoes. When you need money, you can always go back to the 8-hour workday

   There is a reason for your health here if you have serious thyroid problems. Start at about 6 o'clock. I know people who make extra money by taking photos at weddings, babysitting, dance instructors, teaching languages ​​privately or drawing. There are also options for additional income at a time convenient for you, if you are good in any field, you care. Your desicion.

   Friend, the world was deliberately created this way. Everyone wants the table to be tired, not to think soberly, just to work and consume. Yes, I would also like to work 4 hours, but there is no such option, because there is no one to support me, and I pay accommodation and bills, after all. These two things alone are about BGN 700 per month. There is no way to work 4 hours, that's just the situation. Otherwise, on request - and I want so, we all want so. Or at least if it is not 4 hours, then it should be 4 working days and three days off. Alas, this is unrealistic for Bulgaria. Here, the moment you take a leave or go on a longer sick leave, they even start looking for a replacement. What's left for shopping for working hours ...

   It's one thing to have a lucrative profession or business, freelancing and to earn enough for 4 hours to live well, and in your free time you do other useful things instead of lying on the couch, it's another to spend for 1000 BGN, but to want to bake 4 for 500, even to be miserable because you're bored, and in your spare time you click Minecraft. There is a difference. Generally speaking, I do not blame anyone.

   Is there a possibility for a 6-hour working day? Having worked in a call center for 11 months, from the beginning I asked for 6 hours and it was perfect for me as payment / workload / personal time. Good luck whatever you decide!

   Up to 23 I can earn a lot over 1000 leva, but I can lie on the couch while playing Minecraft. If CI has enough money, I don't understand what's wrong?

   19, I do not comment on the work in the call center, I speak in general. Personally, I the so-called. I don't take party timers seriously, no matter what field they work in. Usually these are people or students, or with other commitments, ie. their priority is something else right at this stage of their lives. From this point of view, I say that building a career is out of the question, at least I think so. And for a person who has graduated from university, it is assumed that his main priority is to do something meaningful and grow in the job, whatever it is. That was my thought. 18

   27, I didn't know that working 8 hours a day makes you a "sick careerist". Ah, we love to dramatize. Nobody makes you lick ass. No one makes you be a robot without a soul. You have the freedom to do whatever you want or not to work. Your life is yours, and hopefully mom and dad will live to old age, so that you will not be robots and be like at school - half a day in idleness, and in the other half you have done something useful, not her. :))
