4 months ago9-5 never made any sense to me.
I thought working 40 hours was the standard, but 9-5 with a paid lunch is less than 40 hours. So, the math never made sense.
The only place I heard of people working 9 to 5 was in Dolly Parton’s song. I’m enjoying reading everyone’s answers though, and I’m hoping someone chimes in that has actually worked a traditional, in office 9-5.
Edit: I meant to say with an unpaid lunch.
Do you prefer the shorter day and eating at your desk, or the longer day with the lunch break?
