Thread: Can someone explain why people complain about 9-5 schedule???

i've worked in industry my whole life where we worked weeknights and weekends about 50 hours a week. All of us fantasize about a job where we can just work M-F 40 hours a week. It's our ultimate dream yet people act like that's a ****ty schedule?



Are those people just lazy as **** and don't want to work? I don't get it. Every single person in my industry would be totally ecstatic to have a 9-5 job if they could make good money

You would think as it no longer takes days for one company to send another company correspondence, or weeks for a simple task to get done that with the efficiency, we can finally start living and enjoying life. But no social economic gap is there, and dumb kids get millions on tic tac while the average person is slaving 40 to 50 hours a week

I can work 40 hours a week with my ****ing eyes closed, especially working m-f 9-5. I used to work 55-60 hours a week including weeknights and Saturdays when I first started

People are lazy.

If you’re going to have to work, 9-5 is the sweet spot. And if your job isn’t stressful where you have to take work home after then you really shouldn’t complain

I'm a total morning person. I know people who work 8-4... now that's the dream

As a business owner, this is the kind of guy you want to hire. Imagine being proud of sacrificing around half of your waking hours in order to make someone else rich.

Lmao talk about neutered

What's the alternative? a huge percentage of start ups and businesses fail...or you work 100 hours a week and make mediocre income for a while


if you can make 100-180K working 40 hours a week, you're living better life than 99.999% of the worlds population now and in history of the world

Lol that’s nice but not everyone is meant to be a business owner. Most men should atleast attempt it at some point in their lives but most won’t make it.

You need something to do during the week. Might as well work for a salary and live your life as stress free as possible

Not saying everyone should be a business owner, but people working crazy hours at a job they hate is not worth it. Hell, 40 hours alone at a job you hate is miserable. Money is overrated, unless one actually enjoys the kind of work that brings in the big bucks, they're better off finding something they enjoy doing for a bit less. Think 60-100k

Of course not everyone will make it or is meant to make it, but bragging about working 60 hour work weeks at a job you dislike is silly. I work for a salary and while it doesn't pay much by misc standards, I love my job. Most people aren't as fortunate as me. Unless your job is your passion, then no need to put in more effort than the minimum needed to afford the quality of life you want.

A job you're not passionate about is just that, a job. Put in the minimum and focus your energy and time on things that get you fired up.

Because the job usually sucks and wages have stagnated.

You got people wage slaving at jobs they don't like, and they still can't afford the life they want anyway

you can't have an enjoyable lifestyle and still save money on 60 or 80K a year


I make about 180K a year and I'm barely saving 30K a year cause we enjoy going out and nice clothes and nice vacations
