Precisely. Plus this "statistic" is misleading because the Fed
workplace 'flex time' program that's existed since the 1990s allows less
than a 40 hour/week, even when 100% in-office. That's because it only
requires that the hours add up to 80 for every two (2) week period, so
half the weeks will be <40 while the other weeks are >40.
A common routine is every other friday off, thusly:
week 1: (4x9hrs + 8hrs) = 44 hrs worked
week 2: (4x9hrs + SDO) = 36 hrs worked
Total is still 80 hours/pay period. In office, or not.
Seems more like one of those 'home schooled' graduates.
Reminds me of a neighborhood kid ... when they rejoined society, they
ended up having to be held back twice before they "caught up".
