Economists rarely actually work as hard as Sociologists or similar soft sciences.
I would actually love to hear you elaborate on that.
In what way sociologists work harder than economists?
I'd argue that when it comes to science, you can't study economics without studying sociology and politics. Because then you will be lacking context. Wouldn't that mean more research?
In fact, how do you define "hard work"?
I'm acually curious, it's an interesting topic.
I do not have the answers you're looking for, I was being flippant.
Life goes smoothest when you recognize that effort is a limited resource
