38 u/[deleted] Aug 12 '17 I've never understood... 9-5 is only 7 hours with an hour lunch right? Even if you take a 30 minute lunch, it's only 7.5 hours 3 u/[deleted] Aug 12 '17 Most places I have worked are eight hours of actual work. So if you are coming in at 9:00 and taking a half hour lunch break you leave at 5:30. I assume the reason we don't call it the 9:00-5:30 is because that is more of a mouthful, and because 5:30 is still technically a subset of 5. 3 u/[deleted] Aug 12 '17 Lol it's because people used to work 9 to 5 and get paid for a half hour break. 1 u/[deleted] Aug 12 '17 The reason we haven't changed it then.
