The pie chart compares data about the time distribution for various activities among working adults in 1958 and 2008. Overall, it is readily apparent that hours spent for working, relaxing indoors, traveling to work and other activities including sports increased significantly while the opposite was true for that of sleeping and hanging out. Moreover, adults dedicated most of their time to working and sleeping.
In 1958, working adults nearly had an equal percentages of working hours and sleeping hours, at 33% and 32% respectively. Almost a fifth of their time was tied up to going out with friends or family. The figures for the remaining activities- resting at home, traveling to work and other activities or sports games- were comparatively lower, at 8%, 2% and 6% in turn.
Regarding 2008, the share of time for working remained dominant, with a notable rise to 42%. The figure for sleeping constituted a quarter of their time, which was considerably higher than that of relaxing at home, at 13%. Traveling to work and other hobbies accounted for 8% each. The last section- outdoor activities with friends or family- made up a mere 6%, meaning that this activity was the least popular among working adults.
