[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honest question - did the original concept of working 9-5 include lunch, whether it is paid or unpaid? It seems like the traditional 9-5 included a lunch "hour" which is different from today's 9 to 5:30 (30 min. unpaid lunch) or 9-6 (with an unpaid hour lunch) plus longer commutes. [/quote] the commute thing is recent to the mid 20th century when people started to move out into the burbs. There are lots of people who live close to where they work, but because jobs are concentrated in certain areas, and most people want to live near where they work, that's why the col is so high in those ares. So, your choices are: 1. lower your living standards and live closer to work 2. deal with what you got 3. find a job near where you work Maybe in 30 years when Gen Z are managers and AI has taken over lots of jobs, and we are in flying cars, things will change, but for now, this is what we got.[/quote]
