84 hour work week
Let's ask Modi ji to make this a law.
Everyone should work 84 hours per week. All of us have wasted too much time in the last 10 years already.

Fuck the 8 Hour workdays?
F*ck the 8 hours workdays, who would want to work 8 or more hours a day for an employer who could fire me in a day if they like to, I am just another replaceable product. I can be replaced in a week, why would I dedicate my peak years to that company?
One time only made 9 Calls in 30 Days for my first company- I was the only SDR in Company , My target was 100 Calls a day. nothing happened to me why? Coz I achieved even in the months before and after that month. I just brought results.
one of my leaders used to only come to office for 2 hours a day, yk what happened to him? he was promoted every quarter, why? he brought results in those 2 hours, there was no need for him for 8 hours.
Is it about the hours tho? Are the employers actually interested in your working hours? Yes alot of them are and to hell with them. I would gladly take a paycut to work with an employer who does not count hours but work, and not work but results.
I don't believe in work hours personally, to me it is always what is my company looking for? Do you know your day to day targets, yes you do. But do you know why those targets specifically and what is the end goal for 2024 for your company as a whole? Most of us don't know that.
That's where employers fking fail and employees too- both of them fail here.
Boss counts work hours, because they don't know why employee is not achieving the tasks, employee doesn't have any idea why something is critical and keeps postponing these tasks/targets.
If both of them focus on the Why, there will be no hour counts, there will be no screen recording, bla bla bla. Fk this mentality.

simple answer to you rant is "aukat". If the person had a choice, he/she wouldn't be doing it. People who dont have a choice get ripped.

Root cause problem is the culture in India is not to get paid hourly instead monthly.
If you were paid per hour and you've to clock in. This argument wouldn't be there. Of course you'll have to check how much is your hourly Pay.
Do you know what the leader did in the other hrs. They may bring other things to the table. I knew a guy barely in office, this was because he was meeting people across town and worked barely from the office.

Think about PSU banks, there are just fighting for 5 days week. And in terms of work hours also there work hours goes 8-10 hours working only ( plus commute ). So at least wrt them I find myself lucky with 8 hours per day for 5 days a week

I genuinely don't care about timings at my startup. Being one of the founding engineering interns, the team has been super cool about my working hours. No pressure on working hours, they don't ask me to stay online for 8 hours or something. It's just that I do the job, and get involved and rest it is super super cool

No counting hours at the startup i work. Office is there and i go as much as i can, but as long as you get work done things like hours worked are not brought up by anyone.

The real debate isnt / wasnt about how long the work week should be (70/60/50/40).
It’s should and will always be about how productive those hours actually are.
You see, no knowledge worker puts out more than 2.5 to 5 hours of real work in a day. That’s 12.5 to 25 hours of productive work in a week. The rest? It’s ju...

Seriously, Can we get rid of the Employee Tracking Nonsense?
Why can't we trust people to do their thing without turning the workplace into big boss. I signed up for a job, not a 24/7 surveillane
