*thinking about how much work i actually get done in a week*
how the fuck does anybody consistently work 40 hours all the time??

@rezzish i don't think they do, actually. everyone is like this.

@rezzish i should get links again from my friend but like ppl have studied this and 40 hours is the *maximum* anybody should work in a week, at that point you start causing numerous problems physicall, mentally, and actually degrade performance. an optimal work-week is closer to the 25-30 range.

@lunalapin @rezzish from my experience working a 40 hour week, i think i actually got significantly less done than if i had worked 25 hours per week

@typhlosion @rezzish also an interesting infographic from ohio university about why a 6-hour work day (still 5 days, but) is probably more optimal, and various issues with "productivity" and how it actually relates to human psychology onlinemasters.ohio.edu/blog/be
