“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?
damn thats awesome
Having done something similar it really fucking sucks. Even if you find a way to discreetly kill time, you can’t shake the feeling that you’re burning precious hours of your life for no reason.
I would much rather work a solid 6-7hr block at home knowing I can sign off when I’m done than spend 1 + 7 hours in cubicle hell.
