Argumentative Essay Introduction Paragraph
Every
weekday
morning
,
more
than
one
hundred
million
Americans
begin
a
nine
-
to
-
five
that
was
designed
for
an
economy
that
no
longer
exists
.
The
forty
-
hour
,
five
-
day
workweek
was
standardized
in
the
early
twentieth
century
to
suit
factory
assembly
lines
,
yet
it
remains
the
default
for
office
workers
whose
labor
cannot
be
measured
in
hours
on
a
production
floor
.
Its
costs
have
become
hard
to
ignore
:
burnout
rates
have
climbed
,
productivity
growth
has
stalled
,
and
workers
consistently
report
that
they
lack
time
for
family
,
health
,
and
rest
.
To
be
sure
,
critics
warn
that
a
compressed
schedule
would
strain
customer
service
,
widen
gaps
between
industries
,
and
merely
cram
the
same
workload
into
fewer
days
.
But
the
results
of
recent
four
-
day
-
week
trials
in
Iceland
,
New
Zealand
,
and
the
United
Kingdom
tell
a
different
story
,
with
participating
organizations
reporting
steadier
output
,
lower
absenteeism
,
and
measurably
happier
employees
.
The
four
-
day
workweek
should
therefore
replace
the
standard
five
-
day
schedule
in
white
-
collar
industries
because
it
improves
worker
well
-
being
,
maintains
productivity
,
and
forces
companies
to
abandon
the
inefficiency
that
has
quietly
become
normal
.
