Comment on Henry Ford: Why I Favor Five Days' Work With Six Days' Payparent

Comments

Heh. How much time do you think Ford put in when it was all a startup for him?

I have no evidence whatsoever, but I'd imagine a good 70 hours a week at least. You lived your job back then- ref: farmers. Plus, the fact that moving to a 5-day work week was so monumental strongly implies the entire nation was on a 6-day work week, and the loosly-religious ones probably worked on Sunday too.
