In the midst of the Great Depression, cereal manufacturer Kellogg's switched to a shorter, six-hour day. This continued a trend that seemed inevitable: people would work less and less. But economic policies, management strategies, and cultural attitudes changed. The story of the rise and fall of Kellogg's six-hour day is a microcosm of these changes, as well as of our attitudes about the roles of money, leisure, work, and women and men. In the book, Kellogg's 6-Hour Day, historian Benjamin Kline Hunnicutt shares his findings in studying Kellogg's shorter workday. His main sources of information were 434 interviews conducted by the Women's Bureau of the Department of Labor, 124 interviews he himself conducted of workers, and 241 responses to a survey he had sent. What follows is a summary of the story, and Hunnicutt's findings. Kellogg's switched to a 6-hour day to create jobs During the Great Depression, American businesses took on a policy of “work sharing.” The idea was that fewer would be unemployed if everyone shared jobs – more workers, working fewer hours. So, on December 1, 1930, W. K. Kellogg changed most departments in Kellogg's Battle Creek, Michigan plant from three eight-hour shifts to four six-hour shifts. A shorter workday had seemed inevitable This continued a decades-long trend of shorter working hours. Labor activist William Heighton had written in 1827 that the workday should be reduced from twelve hours to ten, eight, and so on, “until the development and progress of science have reduced human labour to its lowest terms.” John Stuart Mill had written in 1848 about his vision for a “Stationary State”: After necessities were met, people would seek progress in mental, moral, and social realms. John Maynard Keynes would predict in the same year Kellogg's switched to six hours, 1930, that we'd have a fifteen-hour work week by 2030. George Bernard Shaw and Julian Juxley had predicted a maximum two-hour workday by the end of the 1900s. Other businesses shortened their workdays, too Other businesses followed Kellogg's' lead. A survey by the Industrial Conference Board in 1931 estimated 50% of American businesses had shortened hours to save jobs. President Herbert Hoover was considering making a 6-hour day a national policy. In the 1932 presidential campaign, both major parties were advocating shorter hours. The 6-hour day was the hot business topic Not only did the six-hour day help create jobs, it seemed for a while like it was a better business policy. Forbes called it “the topic of discussion in the business world.” Business Week concluded it was profitable. The New York Times called it “a complete success.” Factory and Industrial Management magazine called the six-hour day, the “biggest piece of industrial news since Ford announced his five-dollar-a-day policy.” At Kellogg's, 15% more shredded wheat cases were being packed per hour. Profits had doubled in 1931, versus three years prior. After five years with the six-hour day, overhead costs had been reduced 25%, labor costs 10%, with 41% fewer accidents. W. K. Kellogg said, “We can afford to pay as much for six hours as we formerly paid for eight.” (That should be taken with a grain of salt. W. K. Kellogg took pride in crafting a public image as a “welfare capitalist,” as evinced by the full-page newspaper ads he took out, boasting how Kellogg's had done its part. In reality, nearly half of workers later surveyed recalled that their wages were reduced.) Kellogg's returned to an 8-hour day for WWII In 1943, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed an executive order to direct the maximum amount of manpower toward supporting the country's fight in WWII. Kellogg's responded in kind by temporarily returning to eight-hour shifts. A rift formed between Kellogg's management and the labor union This was actually an opportunity the company had been looking for. Kellogg's management and that at other companies were beginning to resent the six-hour day, and workers were becoming divided over whether they wanted a shorter workday, or more pay. In 1936, the National Council of Grain Producers had started a union chapter in Kellogg's Battle Creek headquarters. W. K. Kellogg had been proud to pay what he considered the best hourly wages in town. During the first meeting with union officers, he wept, and kept saying, “If only they had come to me, I would have given them what they wanted.” The union got an inch, and wanted a mile After this point, the relationship between Kellogg's workers and management became adversarial. W. K. had left in 1937, after the union came in, and at that point the union leaders had been pushing to not only have a six-hour day, in which they could earn a bonus based upon productivity, but they had also wanted time-and-a-half pay for working more than six hours in a day. Hunnicutt wrote, “More than any other union demand, this position would come to haunt Kellogg workers.” Demanding overtime pay on a six-hour day helped turn management against the shorter workday, and create a rift between workers who wanted higher wages, and workers who wanted shorter hours. In the larger relationship between management and labor, the American Federation of Labor introduced a bill in congress, prohibiting goods produced by workers working more than thirty hours a week from being traded across state lines. Hunnicutt cites this as having shifted the business world's stance on shorter hours from support to opposition. Shorter hours became exploitation, longer hours a reward In 1938, Kellogg's management deepened the divide between six-hour and eight-hour workers by proposing they be allowed to schedule 40-hour weeks during periods of heavy production. Overtime became available instead of a productivity bonus. Senior workers had priority access to overtime, and so they lost interest in the productivity bonus. So in the early 1940s, before the war, worker opinions were shifting to view shorter hours not as a benefit, but as instead an exploitation of workers – making them bear the brunt of fighting unemployment. And Kellogg's was actively campaigning against shorter days, asking workers to consider how much more they would make working eight hours. Human Relations Management saw work as life's center Meanwhile, the business world was shifting from a Scientific Management philosophy to a Human Relations Management philosophy. Scientific Management practitioners were obsessed with efficiency, but Human Relations Management practitioners were more interested in imbuing work with joy and meaning – making work its own reward. The Human Relations Management school envisioned that as work brought satisfaction, engineers and scientists would lead society into an orderly world, where desires met obligations, consumption met production, and work and leisure merged. According to Humans Relations Management, time away from work and consumption was a relic of an illogical past. Instead of work becoming obsolete, giving way to more freedom, work would become the center of life, and help us ascend Maslow's hierarchy. Fewer workers wanted to return to 6 hours After the war, many departments returned to six-hour shifts, but six-hour workers slowly lost their beloved shorter shifts over the following decades. Central to this struggle was how workers viewed leisure. Kellogg's workers had previously voted to essentially “buy” shorter working hours, being paid less overall, in exchange for more leisure time. Employees used their time to improve their homes, go hunting, grow and can food in their gardens, and spend time volunteering in their communities. But slowly, workers became less interested in having time away from work. Leisure was outsourced to mass media One explanation from a worker Hunnicutt interviewed was, people were now outsourcing all things they used to spend time on. One place they were outsourcing to was mass media. Sports had been such serious business amongst Kellogg's employees, they had hired “semi-pro” softball or basketball players to play on the teams. But why watch the company team play, when you can watch pros on television? One former six-hour worker bemoaned that even conversation had been outsourced – to radio, or television talk-show hosts. Shorter hours became seen as weak and feminine The question, Six hours or eight? became a gender issue. Early on, both men and women were interested in six-hour shifts. Three-fourths of men voted for six-hour shifts in 1937, but half of men were working eight hours by 1947. The six-hour departments began to be referred to as “girls' departments,” doing “women's work.” Management also assigned sick and disabled employees to the six-hour departments. Men who chose to work six-hours were labeled “sissies,” “lazy,” or “weird.” Men saw work, not leisure, as a source of control and identity Hunnicutt's interpretation was that men were increasingly seeing work as a place for control and identity – that many hadn't known what to do with themselves after their shorter shifts. They didn't like spending more time at home and being assigned chores by their wives, or hearing what they considered gossip. As a result, men placed more importance on working longer hours – or at least appearing to. Hunnicutt said men he interviewed commonly claimed to have gotten second jobs while they were working six hours. How often is “commonly”?, he doesn't say, but he points out only 35% ever did get second jobs. Men felt they “had to” work long hours This attitude, which we might today call “toxic masculinity,” extended into attitudes about leisure. When asked why they preferred longer hours, men spoke of necessity, and used dramatic language, saying they had to “keep the wolf from the door,” “feed the family,” and “put bread on the table.” When Hunnicutt pointed out to men who had been working in the 1950s that workers in the Great Depression had been willing to take pay cuts to have more free time, he says they got defensive, lectured him on “the facts of life economically,” called six-hours “nonsense” or a “pipe dream,” or dismissed the question as silly. While Hunnicutt's conclusions here are plausible, it seemed like he really wanted it to be true, and didn't present men's attitudes scientifically. There's no mention of what earnings were relative to cost-of-living, and no acknowledgement of what these men's roles might have been, truthfully, in the economics of their homes. There's not even a mention of how throwing thousands of young men into the meat grinder that was WWII, tasked with saving the world, might have affected their own perceptions of what was expected of them. Though he did present a story of one man who had found that the extra money he made going back to eight hours was due to his ex-wife, as alimony. A shorter workday became “a sexist ploy” In the 1970s, Kellogg's women worked with a local women's-rights group, who presented the case that six-hour shifts were a sexist ploy meant to subjugate women. They demanded management “allow” women to have “full-time” jobs. Kellogg's posted notices in the plant claiming that to make pay “comparable,” they were opening up eight-hour departments to women. In doing so, they skirted the issue: The activists had wanted not just comparable hours, but comparable hourly pay. The 6-hour mavericks held on Workers who stuck with the six-hour shift – who Hunnicutt calls “six-hour mavericks” – were about a quarter of the Kellogg's workforce from 1957, into the 1980s. The union worked according to a department-by-department vote on the length of the day, so long as the six-hour workers didn't interfere with the union majority's strategy to try to get higher wages and more benefits. With longer hours, efficiency fell by the wayside Overtime had previously been thought of as a penalty to the company for being understaffed, but it became a way for workers to earn more money while the company's staffing requirements remained flexible. According to Hunnicutt, with overtime instead of productivity bonuses, workers were less-motivated and careful. The company had to resort to being more controlling, motivating workers with fines, threats, and firings. The death of the 6-hour shift The increased benefits the union had fought for over the years may have worked against the six-hour shift. The final nail in the coffin was driven in 1984, when Kellogg's threatened to relocate if workers didn't vote to abandon the six-hour shift. So the six-hour workers gave in and voted to give it up. Some retired, some worked eight hours, but the coffin in which this nail was driven was both figurative and literal. The six-hour workers held a “funeral,” building a full-sized cardboard coffin, painted black, placed on the workroom floor, a cut-out skeleton placed inside. Thus reversed a trend that had held on for over 150 years. The idea of less work and more leisure gave way to a stable amount of work, and more consumption. It's tempting to blame the death of the 6-hour shift on one of many juicy narratives. You could say people forgot how to spend their leisure time. You could say people were overly-materialistic, and wanted more money, instead of time. You could say toxic masculinity and a patriarchal society tipped the scales so those who wanted to work shorter hours were no longer in the majority. You could say the unions got too demanding and sabotaged the long-fought battle for a shorter working day. All these are probably true to an extent. Ultimately, businesses want to, need to, maximize profit. They have to offer benefits to employees to stay competitive. To offer those benefits profitably, they need more work from fewer workers. If you believe the efficient-market hypothesis, if a shorter workday were indeed more profitable, some business would beat its competitors by offering one, and other businesses would follow suit. So far, that hasn't happened. If, as I believe, creativity becomes more important, productivity will be about [Mind Management, Not Time Management, and a more-relaxed work schedule will be embraced. But probably not for boxing corn flakes. There's your summary of Kellogg's 6-Hour Day This episode is essentially a summary of the book, Kellogg's 6-Hour Day, by Benjamin Kline Hunnicutt. The book is very dense and written in an academic style, so I can't recommend it unless you really want to dig deep into questions about work and leisure. It's a provocative story that makes you wonder if we could be living in a world where a 6-hour day is standard. But it sounds like it wasn't even close.

How one entrepreneur has achieved huge growth in his business by ditching the low-cost ‘productized service' model and pursuing upmarket enterprise clients. That person is Harry Morton, founder of the podcast production service Lower Street. Harry talks to Dan about how pivoting has allowed him to reach a low to mid seven figure annual revenue, and grow a team of over 20. They discuss why building a network and evolving a strong company culture has been so crucial, the importance of getting a grip on your financials, how accepting who you are and what drives you is crucial, and the challenges and opportunities afforded by AI: ‘I think that while AI is coming for all of our lunches it's coming for the productised end first because you have a very clearly defined list of deliverables and you point Chat GPT or whatever at it and it's not going to take too long, I don't think, for that to catch up and make the make the drop the price even further. So I think for anyone in an agency business, certainly something I spend a lot of time thinking about is: How is AI going to affect us? How do we incorporate AI? How do we embrace it?'

What do you get when you combine Transformers, Marvel, MTV, and a LOT of neon? You get Jem and the Holograms; a defining 1980s toy, cartoon, and franchise.  When it debuted in 1985, the cartoon show caught on quickly, as did the subsequent toy line. And none of this was by accident. Built on the back of already successful properties like G.I. Joe, and Transformers, Jem and the Holograms followed the formula, but with its own unique twist.

Today's Guest: Tyler Jensen I am excited to have my friend Tyler on the show today! We are also fellow 7 Figure Flippers and he is just the kind of guest I love to have on - someone who is an expert in his field and willing to let me pick his brain! Highlights From The Show: We start the interview like we often do with Tyler sharing his real estate background. He began flipping houses in 2008 as a way to help pay for his college education. He was taking classes and working full-time, so real estate was a side hustle at that point. For years, while working another job, he continued to flip houses because he knew it was an excellent vehicle for building long-term wealth. Tyler talks about how he honestly thought his career was going to be in corporate America but realized he could be successful with flipping when he was able to pay his tuition with the proceeds from his third deal. Joining the 7 Figure Flipping Mastermind was a turning point for Tyler and his business because he was surrounded by very successful investors that encouraged him and helped him scale. Tyler explains his struggles with the lifestyle of being a corporate executive and how he was really trading time for money. He wanted to find a way to have both financial freedom and freedom of time so that he could be a good and present husband and father. After talking to his wife (and he tells us how this conversation went), he decided to pursue his dream of being a full-time investor. He went to Flip Hacking Live, joined the mastermind and his business exploded, doubling the deals performed several years in a row. We also dig into the process he created called the 7 Day Flip, in addition to Tyler's thoughts on the current housing market. Make sure you don't miss another amazing episode of the Just Start Real Estate Podcast with Tyler Jensen and learn how you can succeed in finding both time and financial freedom through real estate investing! Notable Quotes: “I knew that real estate was a great way to make income, so I started early.” Tyler Jensen “On our first flip, we did everything wrong, so it was a great education in real estate.” Tyler Jensen “When I started flipping houses, it was a side hustle with the goal of helping to pay for college.” Tyler Jensen “The year 2008 was actually a great time to get into real estate.” Mike Simmons “In my corporate job, I was trading time for money and I realized it was really hurting me because I could never unplug.” Tyler Jensen “We have amazing women behind us that have our backs.” Tyler Jensen “The biggest thing in any flip is that you have to control the time, the budget, and the quality of work you are putting out.” Tyler Jensen “That system and process is critical to getting things done fast.” Mike Simmons Thank You for Listening!

Today Dan and Ian reflect on some of the key observations they've taken away from calls with over 50 business owners during the launch of their implementation program ‘DC Scale'. And, this being the TMBA, there are 5 categories: ‘The $500K Stall', ‘The Solo Recording Artist Mentality', ‘Pulling Punches', ‘Grade A at Hiring But Grade B at Managing' and ‘The Cloak of Invisibility': ‘Even today, when there are more people to follow then followers, and everybody's a brand … Most of these entrepreneurs are just not brands. And they really don't need to be. The vast majority of people we spoke with have a personal network, they are using channels like events, industry contacts, and referrals to bring in the key relationships that they need in their business. They're not necessarily using internet marketing funnels to bring in customers'. Dan and Ian also give their take on how and why the ‘Visionary vs Integrator' definitions came about, and how useful they are, and share thoughts on the pros and cons of the ‘4 Day Work Week'.

And through him I got to know the ins and outs of telecom and how it went, how it worked but there are a few things about it that I didn't really like. So we decided to create a model that was going to be way more transparent, letting our clients know who our master agent was, how to interact with them, and, you know, just kind of go through that process. During Covid, you know, we, we originally were just selling phones, internet, some cloud covid hits, and we wound up selling thermal scanners, and that led us into the whole IOT world. At the same time, the building in Miami collapsed. So it really made us look more into, okay, so what caused the building to collapse? Stephanie Turzanski (02:01): What kind of technologies could have been put into place? And through the help with Telarus, we were able to see this whole other world that wasn't just a phone system or internet or cloud. We were able to look into a world that had so many other facets that we were able to put into a building. So from there, we created this model that now does internet wi manage wifi throughout the entire building, having ubiquitous wifi security cameras and access control smart censoring through the IoT sensors through the different partners of Telarus, where we actually will go back to property and casualty insurance and see if we can either get discounts or rebates or lowering of the PNC because of mitigative risk. And then EV charging stations. So from that standpoint, we've created this model where we now can go to a developer, whether it's ground up or already existing and say, here's what we can do for your building. Stephanie Turzanski (03:01): Here's the money you can save, here's the money you can make from it. We're all leveraging technology. So I never knew anything about technology. I wasn't a a tech person, I was a marketing person. My job was to find out, well, how can I make this work and make it appealing? So I think that served me when we started our company and just creating this whole real estate model with the EV charging and the smart censoring and, and all those components have really been great for us. It's actually really exciting because, you know, we're not having to deal with the IT guy for anything,

Before and during WWII, German corporations went from the abandonment of Jewish colleagues, through profiting off the dispossession and murder of Jews, to working Jews to death. The leading executives of these companies embodied the “thoughtlessness,” the indifference to the people on the receiving end of their deeds. The actions taken by most of them, weren't just a means to keep their businesses running , but an opportunity to profit and shine - a "banality of evil" with deadly and lucrative results. In this episode, we hear about some of these executives, and some of these companies - several of which still manufacture and distribute products we may find ourselves using today.Featured guest: Peter Hayes, Emeritus professor at Northwestern University, and the former chair of the academic committee at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.

Want to hear how awkward and uncomfortable I can be? Then listen to this interview ;) LOL   But in all seriousness I really wanted to have the conversation about linking pleasure with money and abundance and there is no one more suited that came to mind than my friend and former client, Hannah Deindorfer, an expert in sex and somatics.   And we thought why not bring my husband on so we can really dive in and share our personal experience with forgoing pleasure when business was a distraction and escape in our marriage and how prioritizing pleasure now lets us show up more fully & in such a vibrant way in our businesses.   We are sharing things we have NEVER shared on the podcast before (hello sex life?!) because I felt so comfortable having Hannah there to hold the space.   She talks about how women, specifically entrepreneurs, can learn to… Receive more (both in the bedroom and in business) Balance their yin and yang (also referred to as masculine and feminine) to thrive in both business and their intimacy  Create self pleasure rituals to connect with their intuition + truly increase the amount of creative downloads they have (that lead to their most profitable ideas)    This is one for the books.   Thanks in advance for being the type of community I feel comfortable sharing this out of my comfort zone topic with. I KNOW someone in my audience needs to hear this message just like I needed to a few years ago.   Cheers to more pleasure and profits baby.  Follow Hannah on social:   Instagram: @hannahdeindorfer https://www.instagram.com/hannahdeindorfer/  TikTok: @iamhannahthered https://www.tiktok.com/@iamhannahthered   Join The CUMmunity: https://hannahdeindorfer.com/the-cummunity *Use code MEGAN11 to get 11% off*   Some Biz Resources For You →Secure your spot in my upcoming FREE Workshop: Create Your Signature Framework (so you can stand out in a saturated market & sign more clients): https://meganyelaney.com/free-framework-workshop  ↑Happening LIVE on March 15th at 1PM EST →Join the Waitlist for my Smart Online Success Accelerator Program: Create & book out your 1-1 coaching with our CCS 3 Part Client Attraction Process (in 16 weeks): https://meganyelaney.com/sosa-waitlist  If you're on Instagram, shoot me a DM! @meganyelaney   

Syndication Made Easy with T.J. Kosen   This podcast features Vinney Chopra, the host of Apartment Syndication Made Easy, interviewing T.J. Kosen.   T.J. Kosen has experience in multi-family, single-family, and self-storage properties. We focused on single-family homes, which has a high volume of deals that involve direct seller marketing, and they primarily engage in whole-tailing and seller financing.   He like to structure deals from acquisition to disposition and squeeze as much value as possible from each deal. He do some renovations, but not on all of their properties.   T.J. have also found that some buyers prefer to have some perceived sweat equity when purchasing a property, even if it would be more expensive to do the repairs themselves. He also try to source cheaper money by finding investors with different expectations for returns.   https://tjkosen.com/   Watch the Full Video here: https://youtu.be/Caow8PVCu7M   Don't forget to head over to iTunes to subscribe, rate, and leave a review.

Tamara McMillen is a sales leader with successful operational and private equity experience. Gifted at both, Tamara helps you glimpse past the emotional fog that the topics of diversity, equity and inclusion evoke. We seek to explain why diversity of thought is critical in a healthy, and sustainably profitable organisation, and the impact investors, leaders, managers and down to the individual choices that salespeople and managers might have on customers, on employees and the areas to pay attention to as signs that a course correction might be needed. Tamara is a strident advocate for her people, for giving them permission to fail, to dissent, to think for themselves. Her style of leadership develops leaders not followers and swallowers of dogma. This creates a very different type of salesperson and sales experience for buyers. You'll like Tamara because she brooks no bullshit and calls me out a couple of times (as she always does and why I value and trust her counsel even when we disagree). And that brings me to our key point. You learn by rubbing against people and opinions you disagree with. Great diversity creates intersectional moments where people with different histories, perspectives, competencies, relevant or opposed views all come together to understand a problem and solve it. That is tapping into Humanity's 5 superpowers - cooperation - communication - codevelop understanding & solutions - choreograph who does what, when and to what level, standard or force - co-elevate everyone involved by finding what we share in common. Working towards a unifying, common purpose means we will be OK waiting to get our needs met in pursuit of the higher purpose. Tamara discusses how you build, empower, equip and lead a truly diverse team. It's not easy but the rewards are massive and leaders require the humility to be vulnerable, to encourage dissent, and leave their egos behind.

Today's Guest: Erin Maney I am excited to have my friend Erin on the show today! She is a fellow 7 Figure Flipper and shares her recent real estate investing journey with us with the hopes that it will encourage other investors who may be struggling. Highlights From The Show: Erin begins by sharing a bit of her background with us. She began investing about four years ago while still working full-time. She has a wholesaling company in the Milwaukee area and decided to put in her notice last June to focus on investing. With the manner in which the market changed last year though, she began to have some struggles. She said they had never had to give a lot of attention to their buyer's list or their disposition process before, but then their buyers started dropping out. Erin was trying to build a company and hire employees, but thought if she couldn't make it work for herself, how could she possibly empower others? Because we are both part of the 7 Figure Flipping Mastermind, when Erin expressed that she was having some difficulties, we were able to get connected and talk it out. She said she was thinking of their company as a marketing and sales company and was reminded through our conversation that her greatest asset was their buyers. Erin said that she had not marketed to grow their buyer's list at all and so she set a goal of adding 40 people to their list every week. Very quickly she saw that her efforts were making a difference and it confirmed how important it was for her to focus on their buyer's list. I asked Erin what her plan is for 2023 and she talked about how much she loves wholesaling, but because of the strength of her team, she is looking at exit strategies. She would like to take herself out of the day-to-day operations so that she can focus on building long-term wealth. What a transparent and honest interview with Erin Maney who is battling through some investing struggles and thriving! Don't miss the latest episode of the Just Start Real Estate Podcast!

The story of Going touches on so many themes we've been following on this show for over a decade. Going's original incarnation, 'Scott's Cheap Flights', came on the scene in 2013. And it started out mostly as a newsletter for digital nomads seeking the most cost effective ways to travel around the world, nerd out on ‘mistake fares' by airlines, and other things of interest in the travel space. Today Going has over 60 employees and is a very substantial business, offering a range of options to its subscribers. On this week's show Brian Kidwell talks to Dan about his personal journey from solopreneur to CEO of Going, the challenges of making that transition, the importance of seeking product market in whatever you're working on, and finding time for ‘deep work': “How can I have enough hours in the day to give the proper thinking, my best thinking, to the things that I need to work on? Because those things now have much more downstream impacts than before. It's like editing code, or responding to somebody - and I'm not trying to downplay them, because those are very important - but it was different for my brain … Now I can't work as long as I used to … I can't provide great thinking for 12 hours a day.”
