If their slacking now imagine what they could do if they stopped slacking. Xi would be pressing the button before the end of the week🙏
So we went from China is a dystopian hellhole because 996 and people are forced to work too hard, to China is bad because people aren’t working hard?
also fuck yeah!
Many Chinese people therefore reacted with surprise and no little scorn to a new official survey of how they spend their time. The study, only the third of its kind, claimed that the average resident devotes less than three and a half hours a day to paid labour.
Remember when western banks fucked Greece and then every media in the west also sneered at them for their “laziness”? At the same time statistics said Greeks work averagely more time than any other nation in Europe.
It’s always the fault of the exploited people when bad things happen to them
I used to work somewhere where managers used to regularly tell us we needed to “pull it together” and “it’s all on you”.
Chinese people are in superposition
The enemy is both slacking and overworked
A new survey racist the question
Illustrated by a picture of people literally at work.
Chefs no less.
You think these “journalists” at the Economist work as hard in their entire careers as a chef does over a busy weekend?
Pulling a billion people out of poverty by slacking is a win in my book.
“Dude, I’m so bored!”
“Yeah, me too, being a government official sucks. You know what, let’s go do something crazy.”
“Like skip and go build another megacity?”
“Nah, we did that yesterday. I’m thinking maybe a couple hundred more miles of high-speed rail – hey! I got it! Let’s go eliminate poverty! You on board?”
“We’re such slackers, lol”
No Chinese ever amounted to anything in the history of Hill Valley!
Whenever someone mentions the economist and not in the context that it sucks, I immediately lose all respect for them. Like it’s instant.
