That blissful moment once I'm through TSA and sitting at the gate and am someone else's problem!

The five hours were very generally expected to come in fits and starts in an eight-hour-ish working/availability window. But there wasn't anything super strict about it. It's just how the work worked. Totally different than transportation, retail, construction, etc. Agree about a class divide here.

I worked a remote writing job where the boss said they expected about five hours of solid work from people a day, & if we were working longer than that, the quality was likely to go down. Our schedules were project-based and we were expected to speak up if we felt overloaded. These were FT jobs. 1/
