Many people work long hours, leaving very little time for leisure activities. Does this situation have more advantages or more disadvantages?

Most

people

are working more and more, long hours at a stretch, without enough time to enjoy their life. I do believe

this

manner can prone to human’s well-being in which drawbacks far overweigh its benefits. To commence with,

although

working from dawn till dusk can meet the humans' materialistic needs in order to gain money, missing out the relationships, mental and physical health for those who have not break-time is considered as a crucial negative aspect. Imagine the person who is involving with a career and

thus

cannot go on holidays with family or have dinner with a loved one,

for example

. What would happen? Conflicting with spouse and children might be its consequences. Equally important, working overtime can lead to burnout, mental and emotional exhaustion.

As a result

, the person loses motivation and innovation at the workplace.

Additionally

, the more sedentary lifestyle

people

have, the more physical ailments they will confront. Obesity and diabetes are two main problems among employees who have a long-hour desk

job

. On the other side, though, gaining an overtime salary or progressing in a

job

are positive points for

people

who are sacrificing their well-being and relationships.

This

is to say, labourers work more and more without time-off to upgrade their position and become permanent employee,

for example

.

Consequently

, he/she can gain much salary along with

job

security. In conclusion, since

people

work overtime to earning more money or reach their dream

job

, they might neglect the disadvantages of working over not enough time to doing interesting activities. I do believe losing relationship and wellness both mental and physical far overweigh the advantages.
