Sunday evening, after: everything in view, your mind is clear. AI keeps the list – you keep the evening.

Seems like german unions finally restored 14th century work-life-balance in the 80s.
35 hours of work per week (and 30 days of vacation, reducing work days per year to ~220).

After COVID they finally continued their fight and aimed for the 28h-week, at least for those working shifts.

Everyday private life holds a lot of invisible labour: keeping track,
remembering, not forgetting.

Your free evening deserves a guardian. AI can point out when the week is already full – the decision to say no stays with you.

🎭 Oh, the irony! Our brave hero loves AI when it does his work for him, but loathes it when his colleagues dare to use it too. 🚀 Maybe the real imbalance is the hypocrisy, not the LLMs. 🤖

From the archive (2021): the third and final part of my #AcademicProductivity series is about working hours and taking breaks.

Burning the midnight oil might sound familiar, but it is rarely the most productive behaviour. Short breaks, a walk around the block or a proper holiday often do far more for your focus. Still holds true five years later.

Keeping track is work too: appointments, errands, calls you meant to make. Share that mental load with AI – and keep your evenings for yourself.

My husband never stops working, but he won’t discuss it. Should I leave him?

Being forced to in-office presence regardless of circumstances. All these expenditures without planning yet the workforce re-adjustment done without batting an eyelash. #WorkLifeBalance #4DayWorkWeek

Der krank gemeldete Jens Spahn urlaubt im warmen Sardinien?!

BILD scheint schnell gehandelt zu haben, warum oder auf wessen Anweisung auch immer, und hat den eigenen Artikel gelöscht.

Die Bundestagsabgeordnete Paula Piechotta berichtet auf ihrem offiziellen account von der Krankmeldung Spahns und über den BILD-Artikel.

Ist es das was Merz mit Work-life-balance meinte?
