Having been self-employed for eight years now, with all the 24&#x2F;7 life&#x2F;work home&#x2F;office work&#x2F;play crossover it brings, it&#x27;s been so long since I could relate to this perspective, or experience the joy of happy hour or TGIF. I often work weekends, while am prone to accomplish very little on a random Wednesday.<p>It&#x27;s not that I&#x27;m always working or that I&#x27;m preternaturally time-efficient, organised or productive, it&#x27;s just that there are no clear boundaries between work and non-work hours (for good or ill), nor between most friends and colleagues.<p>Maybe this doesn&#x27;t apply to most people, but with the proportion of the economy accounted for by solitary freelancers expected to rise, I would think I&#x27;m not the only one who doesn&#x27;t even remember what weekends or holidays are anymore. If so, it seems to me that a more enlightened and forward-thinking perspective would take into account the fluidity of work-life space for many Millennials (and beyond), rather than trying to shoehorn us back into mid 20th century big-corporate life rhythms.<p>EDIT: My personal investment in that viewpoint has been largely about finding better workplaces and better ways to work, e.g. <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;likewise.am&#x2F;2015&#x2F;12&#x2F;18&#x2F;why-i-love-industrious-and-about-coworking-and-offices-more-generally&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;likewise.am&#x2F;2015&#x2F;12&#x2F;18&#x2F;why-i-love-industrious-and-abo...</a>
