    Under his watch, the financial industry has already experienced vast automation and productivity increases. The coding and connections between financial firms and banks has cut what used to take days into an automated process that takes fractions of seconds… Yet it’s the norm to still work extremely long hours.

    It seems disingenuous that this person who has reaped the rewards of this productivity increase without passing the time savings down the chain actually believes shorter work week is likely.

    Jamie Dimon is a wealthy old fart who never worked a day in his plush lazy life. What he says interests me less than analyzing my neighbor’s dog’s poop as its eaten by bugs.

    To work 3.5 days each week is meaningless.

    To work half a day is meaningless.

    The length of the working day is entirely arbitrary.
