40-hour weeks (was Re: FWD: Lack...)

[Dan Goldstein]

Right, and then the next guy replies, "I think that anyone who can do
their work in 35 can probably do it in 30." The choice of 35 as
"reasonable" is as random as the choice of 40 or 45.

Does anyone have any research that suggests that tech writers can
accomplish as much work in 35 hours as in 40, or as much in 40 hours as
in 45?

That's what I thought.
