First, let's look at the average working hours displayed by big data.
According to the results of 20 15 national big data released by CCTV, among every 10 working people, 1 person has a one-way trip time of more than two hours, that is to say, the time spent on the way to and from work every day has exceeded four hours. According to the current urban employment population of 400 million people, 40 million people spend more than 4 hours on the road every day. Do you feel very happy if there are no people who spend more than four hours?
Among the top ten cities that spend the longest time on the way to work, provincial capitals and municipalities directly under the Central Government only account for four of the top ten, and the remaining six are prefecture-level cities, and they are widely distributed, covering major densely populated areas from northeast to southwest. However, Beishangguangshen and Shenzhen did not enter the top ten. According to the data in the figure below, it can be seen that the top cities 10 have basic working hours above 1 hour.
Seeing the data and comparing your actual situation, do you find yourself very happy? It turns out that people in so many cities live so hard. Seeing the data reminds you to work hard.
Second, why do you say that 1 hour working hours are just right?
Why is it better to work 1 hour? I think it is the following aspects:
1. Nowadays, people in the workplace are very busy every day, and it is difficult to have their own time, but the time for commuting can be said to be entirely their own time. Although it may be crowded or noisy, this time is really all my own. After work, time belongs to the company, the boss and the leader. After work, time belongs to the family and the children.
2. During this 1 hour, if you drive to work, you can listen to your favorite music, radio or study micro-classes; People crowded on the bus and subway can read e-books, bring paper books, study video courses on mobile phones, and of course, various entertainment programs and movies. If you walk or go to mobike, you can use this time to exercise for a day, which is a good thing. When doing these things, if the time is short, I still feel meaningless.
However, if the time exceeds 1 hour, you will feel tired and your happiness will be reduced. For example, if you go to work at 8: 30, you may have to go out at 7: 00 after working for more than an hour, and get up at 6: 30 when you go out at 7: 00. Getting up too early can make people emotionally unstable. In addition, if you encounter a traffic jam in the morning, you will have an inexplicable irritability, which will not only affect your mood at work, but also affect your physical condition.
So to sum up, one hour is just right, at the general average level. At the same time, you can use your working hours to do things you like but don't have time to do at ordinary times, give yourself space to be alone, and give yourself opportunities for entertainment and leisure learning. Why not? At least I enjoy an hour on my way to and from work.
