▶ Your Answer :
Some people might think that to have a job where they work five days a week for shorter hours while others think differently. In my opinion, I personally believe that it is more enjoyable to have a job where I work only three days a week for long hours following two reasons: I can travel abroad more often and relieve stress.
To begin with, It can provide me more opportunities to travel to many kinds of different countries than the other option. Because traveling abroad needs a lot of subsequent holidays. So although I should work harder for finishing my works, it gives me more free time. Also, traveling abroad helps me to broaden my world's views. In other words, it makes me understand diverse cultures, lifestyles and, perspectives better. For example, when I worked as a city tourist, I worked only three days a week and had four holidays a week including weekends. So, I could travel to various other countries during holidays and meet people who have various political and social ideas and opinions. The people could dramatically open my eyes to new aspects of life.
On top of that, Working only three days a week makes me relieve stress and feel refreshed. To be specific, it enables me to be provided a mental and physical break for a long time after working laboriously. Thus, I can maintain health, build a quality life effectively. For instance, A study was conducted by the University of Texas. There were two groups. The first group was asked to work only three days a week. The second group was formed of people who work five days a week. The researchers compared their stress levels. There was a great deal of difference among the participants. The first group had a much low-stress level than the second group and suffered from almost half of the stress that the second group got.
To sum up, working only three days is more enjoyable because it makes me have more chances to go on a trip and relieve stress more efficiently. As a result, it's advantages far outweigh the other option's merits for the reasons that I have mentioned above. |
