Just a reminder, don't work for more than 40 hours a week, just to buy more useless shit you don't need.

Another study published in 2015 in The Lancet, involving more than 600,000 employees, found that those who worked more than 55 hours per week had a 13% greater risk of heart attackand were 33% more likely to experience a stroke than those who worked 35 to 40 hours on a weekly basis.

Interesting. Our small company just gave us all pay rises and a reduction in hours at the same time.

Now work 33 hours per week and I’m glad it will have physical improvements to my health as well as the mental aspect of it.

Where do I find companies like that?

I have no idea really. I got luck, but I would say look for small businesses rather than large corporations.

I’ve had 60+ jobs in my life and this place is that nice it still feels weird whenever they do the right thing.
