Day Shift stands not only for our studio name but also a set of values we are trying to carry through our work.
1. Day Shift challenges the current work conditions
2. Day Shift glorifies the cult of non-busyness
3. Day Shift is respecting everyones time
4. Day Shift is not taking part in the game of constant fighting, winning, losing
5. Day Shift is smaller
6. Day Shift is anti-workaholism and 24/7 hustle
7. Day Shift says no to sleepless nights working alongside our caring friend f.lux, kindly dimming the blue screen light for us
8. Day Shift means recognition of work hours and non-work hours, weekends and holidays
9. Day Shift demands everybody is being paid for their work
10. Day Shift wants to do meaningful work in healthier working environment.
From the beginning of our collaboration, we quickly realized that we wanted to establish a more conscious way of working, one that didn't automatically lean toward the 24/7 workaholism and burnout structures we saw as too common among our friends and colleagues.
We view our manifesto as an ongoing discussion between ourselves—a set of principles to help us challenge the usual work conditions in our field, and establish healthier boundaries on daily bases.
We believe that critical discussions about work conditions should be normalized, which is why the Day Shift manifesto is open to everyone. We’d be happy if you choose to take it, shift it, make it your own.
