Firstly, it's 8 to 5. Secondly, the generation before us worked less and received more and also had a much faster commute. Traffic was nothing like today. The current work situation is bullshit and has been bullshit for awhile. It's 100% responsible for the social decay and low birth rates we're having.

It's fairly common to work a 37.5 hr week across a 9-5 shift.
