So you're asking people what they do for a living?

Doing something for 8 hours a day, 40 hours a week makes you a lot better at that thing than other people.

Actually doing something for 40 hours a week is truly remarkable. People waste so much time, me included.

Man I’m so good at sleeping though. I get at least 5 hours a night, so that’s 40 a week! Woohoo!

Where do you get an 8-day week? I want one (assuming it's an extra break day not work day...).

But I don't spend 40 hours doing the same thing. I do a bunch of different regular bullshit that you can't really be "good" at, like sending emails and chatting with people on Teams.
