    Do you think most people still work 9-5?

    I got in a bit of a heated discussion with a buddy who claimed the majority of the workforce is 9-5 ers.

    I was saying that was not the case at all. ...then he started making up fake stats to make him look good. Telling me to shut up and think.

    I could very well be wrong but what do you think.

    Who would be correct in their assumption?

      Bluecollar = 7-3 construction worker, factor worker

      Whitecollar = 9-5 banker, Secretary

      Blackcollar = ?-?

        What work force are you talking about? Food Service? Office? Construction? Adult?

        Little too vague in the question for me to be able to give my opinion.

            It's a general question as a whole. Are there more 9-5 ers than say entrepenuers or people that work night shifts half shifts etc.

                    I think there are more shift workers than there are 9-5 workers...and, these days, many leave the office with work they take home with them....so...

                    On the Internet, I've found that it's hard to get in touch with people after a certain time on weekends...but not so much during the day.

                          I would say maybe....I would not hold to the exact hours 9-5 (banker hours or what my old boss use to call half days) but I would say majority works a 40 hr wrk week..or better yet only gets paid for a 40 hr work week

                              most people in my country usually work from 8,9 till 4,5pm, but it depends what you are doing..., I am working from 6pm - 2am, because of the time zone.......l

                                      i would say a large percentage is 9-5 or some variation of that like 8-5 or so, of course there are lots that work other shifts

                                        have to agree with those figures. Most mainstream companies work 9 to 5, construction is about right but varies depending on job... internet companies if your working like to squeeze out another hour by having you work 9 to 6, if your work from home?? then more than likely its 9 to 11 or midnight.

                                          In the city more people work 9-5 beause of offices.

                                          Outside the city

                                          People work in factories and outside doing things like construction..

                                          And that is almost always 7-3

                                          There are way more 7-3 people then 9-5 people
