Do You think We as people actually work harder today than ever

[IAmGettingAMailOrderBride]

not like in manual labor but like in things that take time

like did people have to get a job work 30 hours and go to school for like 15 credit hours, at the same time and if you got kids, i dont know how people do it

Nah, back then you had to do essentially the same thing...except the jobs were harder. These days it's mostly retail and call center type jobs

Life has always been about work. Its about survival. Whether sitting behind a desk at a 9-5 or having to go out and hunt for your food like the caveman days. The second we are born you become a slave to survival. The only difference now in modern times is that we go to fancy colleges and obtain degrees in order to better our chances at surviving

No, not even close. When I had a job, I spent the majority of my time on the phone.
