Why Do You Do What You Do? | TracyMac

By TracyMac

On average most of us work a 40 to 60 hour week. Why? Have you ever wondered why we work longer hours if technology has saved us so much more time? I remember mimeographs, rolodexes, typewriters, having to drive or walk inner office mail, rotary phones, microfiche, short-hand and going to work from 9am -5pm, which included a one hour lunch break.
