On a slight tangent, 9-5 first shift work is also kind of a boomer thing that&#x27;s going away.  I&#x27;m an old X-er and I&#x27;ve never, in my entire life, had a 9-5 job.  Always &quot;as needed&quot; type stuff aka overtime or weird flex time.  I&#x27;ve never had a job where I can roll into the office at 9 and left at 5.  By my own choice I do four tens now, and as long as the market permits I&#x27;ll never work five eights ever again.  9-5 means &quot;real job&quot; and since only boomers get the real jobs, do the math there.<p>I started out in financial services and per our change management if the building wasn&#x27;t on fire I wasn&#x27;t allowed to touch anything until 5pm on trading days, so I wouldn&#x27;t even show up at the office until at least 4pm and if things went bad overnight I could certainly use a drink around 3am...  I suspect this kind of work-life balance is not unusual here on HN.
