Lets call it 45 or 50 due to commuting. With that said, that seems to be begging the question. If you weren't spending all that time in the workplace or commuting (in other words, if you worked remote), you'd have more time and opportunity to make friends outside of work.

- ImPostingOnHN 2y agoI'm sorry, I'm not quite following what you mean by "a trade of 40 hrs for 10hrs". Working remote, for example, you could hang out with friends or family or neighbors in the middle of the day for lunch, the commute savings time is just a bonus.
- brailsafe 2y agoIn theory you could, but I don't think remote work necessarily enables substantially more in terms of mid day relationship building, at least not if you're actually doing anything substantial during the working day and don't want to sacrifice your evening time by working into it.
- s1artibartfast 2y agoI'm counting the 40 working hours as possible time with friends.
