There is a difference between not knowing when there is to much stress and saing, that 4h are enough. I do get more stuff done when i work longer. I might get distracted by stuff but this is also a part of my work. Helping my collegues? Yes part of my job. I do not count my lunch time as work. And no not the majority of my work as a software engineere is thinking, thinking and thinking. What i really think is tiring is making decisions. Most of people out there have bad jobs and get paid little. But look at us: Earning good money and talkling about 4h workdays for the same pay. Its fucking arrogant. I can only recommend to read this: http://bookofhook.blogspot.de/2013/03/smart-guy-productivity-pitfalls.html http://bookofhook.blogspot.de/2013/03/smart-guy-productivity... and no there is no 'but i did my work so i can go home' How about spending the rest of the time to improve something in your company? or bring the garbage out? Or whatever? And if you are part of a team, you put less work in than others and let them down :(
