Hay guys, I'm sitting at work board and waiting for time to fly cause I really wanna go home. I was thinking that working hours should be decreased. I work from nine in the morning till five in the afternoon. How about you? How many hours do you work? How do you feel about it? Are you Okay with it? Or do you wanna decrease working hours? Please let me know.

But 8 hours is the standard working hours in a day. Maybe you don't have a pile of works to do that's why you are bored. Me, I work from 8 am to 5 pm and deciding to have a night shift or graveyard job as a 2nd job. :-)

Wow, you must be very energetic. I thought of taking a part time job next to this one to increase my income and I'm still looking for one. I took mylot as a part time job for now. Actually, I don't have a lot of work to do, I work fast and I finish quickly, so I sit bored lots of times. Good luck with your jobs, and thanks for the reply :)

Thats basically rat race hours. nobody can avoid that unless UNLESS you made efforts against it. I too been working for 11 years and I had enough of 9 to 5 jobs but luckily I understand how to get our from it. Too bad many people still dont get it, and they stuck themself in the rat race for the entire of their life

No, I'm not lucky. I work from nine to five straight, which is eight hours, you work from 8:30 till 5:30 and you get a one hour lunch break, which is also eight hours. We're both unlucky :)) Thanks for the reply
