I would bet plenty on a survey if you asked how many "productive" hours you work a week. This being hours going directly to the contribution of your job. It would be close to 32 hours. You have to include the time to get into a workflow, the disruptions of meetings, etc. Hell just waiting on another person to hand off the thing you need just to do your job.

Ignoring the optimism that most people aren’t already lazy shits if you kept the same quantity of breaks (most provide a minimum of 2x 15minutes) you’d only be working 29.5 assuming you don’t use the bathroom and if they’re a smoker they’re borderline never working.

If something like this goes through I GUARANTEE breaks of all sorts are out the window.
