It often feels like there are only 3 productive hours in typical American white collar work day.

What if we just cut out the rest?

Edit: Some great responses. So responses must have also been said about the 5 day and 40 hour work weeks.

    That’s why a lot of roles like this are salaried. My productivity can’t be measured by how fast I turn a crank.

      Yeah at that point in the career, the comp is for being available during business hours and moving work in professional, reliable and competent manner. Nobody is checking unless somebody is complaining.

      People could add tasks but there is no pay incentive so why bother. That’s just give out labour for free lol

      Dont be a bootlicker. Get paid!
