Guilty of 1, 2, 7. (Without fixing those, the others aren't possible.)

Not everyone found a land of plenty. Many of us struggled just to survive. I was telling one of my sisters recently that less than twenty years ago, I stopped eating instant ramen noodles as a 2-3x/day meal because I suddenly could afford real food.

Singapore has implement a re-employment law, where older workers past the statutory retirement age is offered employment under different terms. But it is still a work in progress as this long article shows.
Some companies obey the letter but not the spirit of the law, while some workers expectation of seniority pay leads to mismanaged expectations when offered re-employment.

Today the so called "social democratic left"-party along with right-wing block in #Sweden are suggesting to essentially extend the workday by raising the #retirement age saying that Swedes live longer. Representatives say things like:

"We want to give people a possibility to [continue working]" and "You should be able to determine yourself when you want to retire".

Media is not reflecting upon the fact that our lifespan has been increasing over the last 100 years while we have _shortened_ our workday. In fact, during the period we shortened our workday the most our lifespan grew the fastest according to sociologist Roland Paulsen, author of "The Labour Society: How labor survived technology" and "Empty Labour". https://social.umeahackerspace.se/attachment/544273

After listening tell me what Siemens' downsizing of 15k really means: how many will be #moved to other areas, how many will "accept" a partial #retirement model or redundancy #pay ?
