Here's a guy that had a huge impact on the SlowLane while revolutionizing the fastlane.

Did you guys know this about him? Because I certainly didn't. We have him to thank for the 5 for 2 trade!

(Although I guess the alternative would be much worse.)

I personally like weekdays, the rifraf isn't out getting in my way. I prefer them in their cubicles buying my stuff.

That's awesome! Never knew! I literally hate fridays because most people I call or email seem slow and on top of that the next day is Saturday and nobody is working. You can forget about sundays. I recently gave up watching football on sundays. I wasn't a nfl sunday ticket kinda of guy but I would spend 3-5 hours watching the hometown team (eating and other activities associated with sunday football). 10 mins of espn on sunday night and I'm all caught up anyways.

Spent most of today with the impression that it was Sunday.

Everyday is a workday, I rarely know what day it is.

Isn't it a bad thing to have to work everyday? or work 5 days a week to get 2 days off... as in MJ's book, you trade 5 working days for only 2 days of leisure... I never thought of it like that

...Henry Ford, did well with this concept, it keeps people in line and makes them work hard for those 2 days off... IT ALSO ENSURES that my employees are happy with 5 days a week of work and 2 days off.... WHILE I, work a few hours (2-3) a day, about 3 days a week. M,W,F. And even when working, I just review reports, hire/evaluate current employees and try to make things more pleasant for them and for my bank account.

We- or at least I, strive to not have to work, but I do not know about others, I also do get bored at home doing "nothing," so might as well help my earnings increase one way or another.

No reason to get upset here, just a friendly discussion. ;)

You need to define what working 12 hours a day is actually doing.
Sure you might start at 8 and end at 8, but are you truly working every minute inbetween?

4 hours of focused work per day will kick any 100 hour work week.
