安德鲁·卡内基：安德鲁·卡内基自传·补录 405
安德鲁·卡内基《安德鲁·卡内基自传》· Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie · 领导
It is for the interest of the employer that his men shall make good earnings and have steady work. The sliding scale enables the company to meet the market; and sometimes to take orders and keep the works running, which is the main thing for the working-men. High wages are well enough, but they are not to be compared with steady employment. The Edgar Thomson Mills are, in my opinion, the ideal works in respect to the relations of capital and labor. I am told the men in our day, and even to this day (1914) prefer two to three turns, but three turns are sure to come. Labor's hours are to be shortened as we progress. Eight hours will be the rule--eight for work, eight for sleep, and eight for rest and recreation.

白话
卡内基认为，让工人有稳定工作和好收入，对雇主也有利。工资滑动标准让公司能跟上市场，有时还能接单、让工厂不停工，这对工人最重要。高工资固然好，但比不上稳定就业。他理想中的埃德加·汤姆森钢厂，是资本与劳动关系的典范。他听说工人喜欢两班倒或三班倒，但他相信三班倒终会到来：八小时工作、八小时睡眠、八小时休息娱乐。核心是：稳定就业优先于高工资，缩短工时是进步方向。

卡内基自传中讨论工资制度与工时，当时钢铁业普遍实行长工时，八小时工作制尚在争取中。
