Exactly what I thought. 10am-4pm is sane, 10 hours a day is still crazy, but I guess to employees talking about 996, in comparison it seems a good deal.

I have been self employed for 12+ years, for 9am-1pm is a very productive day, and anyone that claim they can do much more actual knowledge work than that either is pushing papers or has a lot of down time and faffing about.

Also I’d rather work fewer hours 6 days a week, than pushing way past my productivity cramming everything in 4 days.
