We will and arguably already have progressed in the opposite direction.
Greece has a 6 day work week.
A single earner traditional household is basically impossible if you want to live in an actual house or nice apartment, for more and more people.
Huge explosion in people with multiple part time jobs, or some combination of gig jobs, functionally removing work free time and days.
Currently the class of people earning less than 60k a year are just going further and further into debt to afford to live.
That’ll have to get paid eventually with either money from wealthier friends/family, or more work.
Oh right: less and less people have pensions, and social security benefits are so shit that many elderly and disabled have to keep working past “retirement”.
