    Playing piano was once considered a leisure activity as it could play itself, but Americans now see it as work since they have to make the music themselves. A survey found people rank their enjoyment of activities from 1 to 10, allowing the calculation that modern people spend less time doing paid work but more on unpaid domestic tasks like cooking and shopping compared to 1900.

    Playing piano was consider as leisure because it can play automatically

    Now the Americans consider playing piano as work because they don't need to make the music themselves

    Because they have to buy $40 worth of yarn and spend 10 knitting it, if the scarf cost $10 an hour, it would cost
    $140

    They make a survey and people will rank their enjoyment from 1 to 10

    It leads them to calculate that we spend less time doing market work today than we did in 1900 but more time in
    home production
