And that’s for the people lucky enough to be able to work 8 hours a day, I’m 5a-6p lol

intensely_human ,

I do about 10am to midnight five days a week. Fortunately my job is really easy.

nac82 ,

Quit. Maybe you can find some luck.

tobogganablaze ,

8 to 5 seems much more common where I am.

EmoDuck ,

I always thought 9 to 5 was the actual standard american working time. I also thought it was weirdly late.

So at what time do Americans actually work?

bhamlin ,

I mean, I’m at work from 8 to 5, but the hours where I actually do work are closer to 9 to 5…

7:30am to 4pm with 30 minute lunch break.

best_username_ever ,

It is an American thing. In France it is usually 9 to 6 with a 2 hours lunch between because we like to have fun.

Starb3an ,

I work 3pm-11pm so I always say I work the evening shift.

intensely_human ,

I can see why you’d say that

Thorny_Insight ,

I used to work 7 - 3:30 but now that I can choose my own work hours I prefer not to start till 8

AlecSadler ,

I’d love to work 9-5, I’m more like…6:45am to 9pm :|

    No, it’s called an anachronism. The phrase is a holdover from a couple decades ago when people’s lunch hour was generally paid.

    630-5 here. Of course, all of our office folk do, in fact, work 9-5.

    CodyCannoli ,

    I work 9 hour days with a 30 min lunch 6:30 - 4:00, Mon - Thurs. Then Friday is a half day, 6:30 - 10:30, its kind of growing on me. And if I feel like it I can just work a full day Friday and get easy 4 hours of overtime.

    7-3:30 most days, 5-1:30 others. I love it.

    Gingerlegs ,

    9-6 for me. Thanks obama

    Hack3900 ,

    I’m not American, what did Obama do to weaken workers’ rights ?

    Gingerlegs ,

    It’s a joke

    Well for one he was tall

    Mastengwe ,

    Many people still work 9-5.

    ParetoOptimalDev ,

    Observe your coworkers carefully and see how many really work 7 hours per day.

    HopingForBetter ,

    I definitely would argue most people don’t ever work 8 hours a day.

    Even when I was scheduled in a factory, I had 10-15min here, 30min there of downtime waiting on the line, going poo, being told to change posts, watching people drop pallets and then everyone scrambling to pick up the spill.

    That’s why I’ll always advocate work from home. Get your shit done, and get on with life.

    I work 8-5. They say my lunch is unpaid but I’m salary. Fucken bullshit.

    intensely_human ,

    You lucky bastard, getting paid 24 hours a day

    @Sanctus@lemmy.world avatar

    A salary is something The Man gives you to give up on your dreams.

    haui_lemmy ,

    Only exceptionally bad jobs (or exceptionally well paid jobs) are not 9to5 ime.

    WeeSheep ,

    9-5 doesn’t include unpaid lunch break. Do you eat at your desk while working?

    SpaceNoodle ,

    Paid lunch break

    Zorque ,

    What're you, European or something?

    Burninator05 ,

    Sometimes. My work is pretty variable. Some days I have to search for things to do. Others I have lots with short due dates. On busy days I eat at my desk. On really busy days I don’t eat. It evens out in the end because I can leave early on slow days to make up the time.

    root ,

    Most jobs include a 30-60 minute paid lunch break, making 9-5 completely plausible.

    intensely_human ,

    Most jobs include a 30-60 minute paid lunch break

    What? Where do you live? I’ve only ever had one job with a paid lunch break and I’ve worked a lot of jobs

    grrgyle ,

    It might not be 9-to-5, but it can still be a 9-to-5.
