“The 9[am] to 5[pm]” is a common term for one’s regular job, on the basis that normal people start work at 09:00 and finish at 17:00. I’ve worked a few jobs and closest I’ve ever gotten to this is 08:00 to 17:00, which I gather is standard.
Are there real jobs where people actually start at 9 and finish at 5?

On paper it is 9:00 to 17:00, but we have flexibility to enter and leave.
In practice we do 9 hours Monday-Thursday and 6 on Friday.
8 hours + 30 min for lunch + 30 min to leave early on Friday.
I do 8:00 to 17:00 and 8:00 to 14:00.
This is not in all companies, my previous employer was like that, but I have friends on other companies for the same sector that do 9:00 to 18:00 every day, with one hour mandated for lunch.
