Exactly. But most people just say 8-5 is 8 hours without thinking about it.

Isnt a standard workday of 8 hours called 9-to-5-job?

[–] tpyo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Well I did a search for 8 to 5

Dolly Parton YouTube video 9 to 5 with the search on YouTube 8 to 5

So it seems Dolly is in agreement with you

In the UK the default full-time workday is 7 hours, 9-5 with an unpaid hour of lunch.
