Between the sheer number of people getting axed in layoffs and the amount of, "Yeah I actually only do like 2 hours of work a day," boasts, it doesn't sound so farfetched. They're surely not doing something so technical and important that they deserve that versus, say, the person dealing with screaming, irate customers in a pharmacy for 8 hours (also, you can't sit, no sitting allowed, it looks lazy).
