The arbitrary 8.5-9 hour workday drives me nuts, because a lot of the time, I really only have 3 or 4 hours worth of work to do. I generally work quickly and I value my time. Can I make a decent living doing something that gives me this kind of flexibility?
Damn near every workplace becomes a little tyranny run by a petty person who flexes their power for no reason other than to justify their existence.
We all need unions.
