I disapprove of it because I'm yet to find a job that results in me actually working anywhere close to 40 hours a week. Maybe that will change with this next co-op that starts in 2 weeks, but maybe not. It could be different for everyone else, but I find it to be a rigid structure that breeds monotony and going through the motions unless you're lucky enough to have a job you truly enjoy.

I think the thing that might be worse than the work week is the work environment. If work was treated more like a normal extension of life then it would be a lot better. If I could have Reddit, Hubski, and music going, along with whatever else that would be great (assuming my work is still getting done), but I've never experienced that.
