Is the 9-5 Grind Just a Myth?

I’m in my early twenties, and lately, I’ve been questioning if the classic 9-5, 8-hour workday is even real anymore. My own experience has been a bit different—I’ve worked two jobs, both starting at 7 and ending by 3 or 3:30. I never had to clock in or out for lunch, and honestly, some days I just eat at my desk while working. But now, as I look at other jobs, I’m worried about being stuck somewhere that’s strict about hours and lunch breaks. The idea of having to stay an extra 30 minutes just because I took a lunch break stresses me out. Is this what most people deal with? Or am I just spoiled by my current setup? I’m feeling pretty lost about what’s normal and would love to hear how others manage their work hours. Do you have any advice or stories to share? 😩🕒 #WorkLife #CareerQuestions #OfficeCulture #JobCareer
