[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Millennials seem to have gotten used to full time work from home jobs where they actually only work a couple hours per day. No one actually works the full 8 hours.

My friends have various mouse shakers, spouses checking emails to see if an unscheduled call or meeting is scheduled when worker is out and not home.

How many hours do you actually work in a day?[/quote]

I mean, boomers and genxers didn't exaclty work the full 8 hours a day in an office, either. Is it your contention people didn't take long lunches, smoke breaks, engage in water cooler gossip, surf the web, etc. back in the day?

My work gets done. I don't watch the clock. I typically start at about 0700 and finish around 1900. And sometimes there are times in the day when I run an errand or whatever.

[b]What's this fixation with romanticizing the past? How we work has fundamentally changed forever. Thank technology for that, which made us more efficient and mobile. [/b]There's no really good way to answer this without granting the premise that working in an office meant more "working." No, it just meant more "looking busy."[/quote]

This. Some people can’t accept the innovations in technology and increased efficiency. [/quote]
