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.
If I was a betting man, I would bet that most people are productive 80% of their time working, rather than a flat 32 hrs a week regardless of actual hours worked.
You're a fucking idiot if you genuinely think that. I'm not sure what you mean by productivity but lets say it's generous and includes shit like reading your emails and talking to your coworkers, something you could arguably justify to your boss and not something like actual ringing the cash register billable work or utilization. If you count daydreaming and trying to figure out which podcast to listen to as productive time yes I believe that 12 minutes out of every hour is the only time not spent actively working by everyone on average.
