(27,275 posts)31. there is a lot of time wasted in a 40 hour work week
i'd estimate a good 20-30%. people would be far more productive if they worked less hours...i suggest 6 hours per day. there would be no need for a lunch break, and no extra hours for doing nothing. if every hour really counted, i truly believe people would get as much or more done in 6 hours as they do in 8 hours.

I can't even get off the launch pad because work consumes SO much of my time.
