I have an acquaintance who goes to work at a pretty boring 9-5 IT job for a local insurance company. Sits down at his desk for a bit in the morning, then gets a cup of coffee, puts it on his desk, hangs his coat on the back of his chair, and leaves. Heads over to his real day job as a salesman for a local Mercedes dealer. Towards the end of the workday he heads back to the office, cleans up his work area, and goes home. Every day, like clockwork.

Sometimes I wonder how often stuff like that happens and we don't hear about it.

It isn't lost on me that I can (and sometimes do) accomplish a completely satisfactory amount of work for my job in a couple hours each morning. Now that we're remote, if I were so inclined I bet I could hold down a second job and not go over 40 hours of total work time.
