Yes, an 8 hour day in a union shop, which includes an hour for lunch and two 15 minute coffee breaks.

Yeah, 6.5 hours a day of work. Real tough.

My arms would fall off if I tried to do what a steel-worker does. But that steel worker's head would explode if he tried to do what I do (I'm a computer scientist with a PhD in Math). Have you ever concentrated so hard on a problem that you developed a migraine from sheer mental effort? How dare you suggest that what we do isn't work???
