My wife told me there’s a saying going around at her virtual office. “There are only three days: yesterday, today and tomorrow.” I don’t think people are saying that with too much sadness though. Is anyone really missing the other four? I read somewhere that the Igbo people had four-day work weeks and that the Soviets had flexible job schedules of 5-10 days. I don’t think any culture has got it tuned quite right. I’ve always preferred Buddhist arguments for the illusion of time, but I also make spreadsheets tracking my productivity. So parse that out.
