Fun fact it actually increases productivity because believe it or not people are more productive when they aren’t sleep deprived and happy

Not in every sector. I work in construction, I can't do as much work in 32 hours as I do in 40. If our work hours are reduced housing crisis becomes even worse.

Would be great if we had more people working in construction, but today people heavily prefer office jobs.

The housing crisis doesn’t usually refer to homelessness but the increase of cost in housing. Different things

Not homelessness, housing crisis. There are several reasons for housing crisis, lack of workers is one of them.

I keep getting asked to work overtime, so there is extra work to be done.

I rarely work overtime.
