A friend of mine works at TikTok and he justified TikTok’s culture of working six days a week by pointing out that until 1995, China only had one-day weekends so working five days a week is a bit of a historical anomaly anyway. Apparently before the communists rose to power, China didn’t have weekends at all. So the CCP introduced weekends as a labor-friendly measure. I was stunned speechless. Edit: I’m not praising the CCP here. I’m just stunned that China used to have such a different concept of taking time off during a week. This is not a political statement .
We learn from our past to better our future
They are poorer, don’t have pensions, and have less kids than the Japanese Enough said
Well it’s true. 6 day work week is also pretty normal in India.
Wut?! Why?
Every second saturday is off for govt jobs and the other saturdays are half day work. Even today all the state education boards have half day school on all saturdays. Most or all of manufacturing and retail work 6 days Banks work 5.5 days Its only a few white collar jobs like sw that claim to be 5 days
Brainwashed
I can never understand how employees dick ride for their companies and justify working more for master
You call them Chinese Communists? They no longer practice communism since they toppled the previous regime Republic of China Taiwan 🇹🇼 and built their new country- People’s republic of China 🇨🇳 in 1949. I call them Chinese Capitalists. The party name Chinese Communist Party has gone wrong 😑
They are fake communists true. But there is no Republic of China Taiwan and PRC is not another country. Taiwan is part of China. In case you are wondering I’m not Chinese myself.
Open your eyes Republic of China Taiwan does exist! I travel to Taiwan without visa as a US passport holder.
Maybe because they’re trying to lift approximately a billion people out of poverty. I know when I was trying to pay off debt I worked more too.
The thing is does working so much really pay off?
It did for me…
