Remembering the 40-hour workweek

 ... which is of course gone.  Life sucks, because nobody has time for life anymore.  It's all drudgery.  Often it doesn't even pay enough to live on.

I, technically, don't have a job, and I work about 60 hours a week. I only get paid for a few of those hours... the "billable" hours. I don't make NEARLY enough to live on. I'm having to stay with a friend because I don't have enough for rent. If I had parents, I would be living with them. (I'm 58).
