    I mean, joke’s still on them.

    Chaining me to an office desk for an extra two hours won’t make me any more productive.

      My thoughts too - people who thought that up should be really detached from reality to expect people to be productive after 8th hour.

        It’s been this way for a long time in some places. I’m in the U.S, long history of factory work, every single one pushed the “4 DAY WORK WEEK IS GREAT!” Every single one was a standard 10(normally actually 12 including daily O.T).

        honestly everything but the lunch break feels detached from reality as it is, there should at the very least be a 10 minute break every hour
