Do you really think we are using our resources and technology efficiently? Because that’s the implication here. I think that’s frankly absurd.

Absolutely not. Do you think we’d use resources more effectively by cutting our hours?

Maybe the global maxima is not the standard 9-5 work day, that’s almost a given, but to claim that working dramatically less will yield better results is absurd.
