"You can refuse to admit it all you want, but previous generations didn't work all that hard. Working 9-5 was standard. Nobody, except government bureaucrats, work such easy hours anymore."

Heck, people don't even have time to take a lunch break any more. Except the gov. bureaucrats you mention, plus union members......

I don't take a lunch break. An Atkins bar and a can of Diet Mountain Dew suffice for nourishment as I work away at my desk. I do break for dinner when I'm at home as it is the only time I have to spend time with my wife before she runs off to work.

Speaking of which, I just got the current copy of Reader's Digest in the mail. Under That's Outrageous is a bit about government workers cashing in years of sick days not used. Upon retirement some of these people are getting a $100,000. or more.
