Speaker 1 (00:00):
I like asking questions, and the reason why is because
the fund begins when you start researching for answers such as,
are we moving toward a nine nine six work week?
Nine ninety six? What is that? Plus? Do men feel
lesser as a man if they can't work on their cars?
My name is Erro. I'm a daily writer, a silent wolf.
(00:20):
That means I stand on the sidelines and do nothing
but watch, listen, study, then activate. I call it the
daily mess, a chronological walk through an everyday world. Yeah,
it's my morning writing as a receiver of thoughts and ideas.
We as people tend to throw things to the side
because we think we're gonna deal with it later on. Well,
when a subject arrives inside of me, I know it's
(00:41):
time to dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal,
but by doing the research, the picture becomes clearer. This
is the daily mess. Are we moving toward a nine
ninety six working schedule? This is what they do in
China nine am to nine pm, six days a week,
nine nine six, not forty hours a week, but the
(01:04):
expectation would be seventy two. That puts a lot of
pressure on the work life balance in China. Their goals
are to prioritize the long hours in pursuit of accelerated
development and competitive advantage. Although it's being played out, the
nine nine six work lifestyle is actually illegal in China.
(01:25):
Their Supreme People's Court stepped in in twenty twenty one,
calling it a violation of labor laws, mainly because it
was having a negative effect on workers' health and well being.
Studies show the nine nine six work life actually hurts
productivity and employee turnover is absolutely through the roof. Yet
there are AI technology companies moving to adopt to this
(01:48):
schedule whatever it takes to get ahead and stay ahead.
This trend is very controversial and continues to face legal
challenges with heavy criticism. Its long term viability remains uncertain.
My question is, could you and would you be able
to live through a nine to nine to six work schedule? Hey?
(02:09):
Coming up next? Do men who can't fix their cars
feel lesser as a man? Hey? Welcome back to the
daily Mess? Do men who can't fix their car feel
less masculine? Those in the mental health field believe it
depends on the individual, but yes, there are men who
feel a heavy sense of inadequacy or shame. Because of
(02:32):
a lack of mechanical skills. One mental health expert actually
chimes in saying a man should not feel lesser in
life due to their inability to work on cars or trucks.
Societial expectations are what causes the negative ways. You're a guy,
it's an automatic, fix your darn car. It doesn't work
(02:52):
that way. Research shows that many men feel embarrassed that
they can't work on their cars. There are guys that
just aren't interested in Many just don't have the time.
We depend on the professionals being at our side. Doctors
say it's okay that you can't fix your car. What
many of us do in our everyday worlds a mechanic
cannot do. There's a huge chance they aren't sitting around
(03:14):
worried about being a man because they can't do a podcast.
Hi MARYL. And that's the daily mess.
