1. Isn't "Alibaba" offensive to someone?

2. Four hours a day and 4 days a week? Screw that. I'm not pickin' up the pace for anybody. We used to have a saying at work before I retired. "We do less before 7 a.m. that most people don't do all day." Take that Jack! ;-)

To the Occupy Wall Street types, this is a threat.

He’s partially right. If they’re on the books with an employer, they’ll get 16 hours a week at the minimum wage at that time. If they’re illegals, they’ll work 80 hours a week for $3 an hour cash.

As many said 30 years ago.

The only way that happens is if indeed globalist oppression rules and the riff-raff of the world are forbidden from working as many hours as they’d like.

We’re far less than that now with the welfare generation.

He is correct, but only because we will all be working for the government.

Sounds like his name should be Jack Maoff.

There are people at my company who don’t average sixteen hours of real work in a month much less a week.

Also, there’s a global market for maybe five computers.

Al Gore likes this. If Al gets his way, businesses will only be allowed the energy to operate for 4 hours a day and only 4 days a week. It may not be enough but it’s a start toward tackling global warming.

I guess he’s talking about government employees but how in the hell does he propose that we increase their productivity that much?

That means they will hire one guy for 12 hours a day instead of three.

In 30 years folks won’t remember that Jack Ma didn’t agree they’d still be working 8 hours per day, five days per week.

“What’s a Jack Ma?”, is what they will ask.

Ahead of my time, I’m already thinking, “What’s a Jack Ma?”

What’s more, I’m not interested enough to find out.
