    Not legally maybe, but its absolutely the kind of thing tech companies will notice and start to take advantage of. They can hire more staff if needed, no big deal.

          I work 4 10s and while it’s not perfect, it is sooooo much better than 5 8s. The key to making it doable though is working from home and having no commute. When I was in consulting a 9 hour day with commute was doable, but 10 was rough and reserved for special occasions. Now that I’m full work from home, 10.5 (because I have to take a 30 min lunch) is fairly easy.

            I totally agree! Even in a “worst case” of 4-10, instead of 4-8 for the same pay, quality of life skyrockets.
