Studies Say Less Work Is Better

love how basically every study says that students do better in school with less homework & later start times and workers do better with more vacation days & shorter shifts, but we do the exact opposite in this godforsaken country because Puritanical feelings apparently beat facts

A social media post points out that students and workers perform better with less work, more rest, later starts, and shorter shifts. The punchline is that the country still does the opposite because puritanical beliefs are treated as more important than evidence, making it a reaction to bad education and labor policies.
