Pretty solid 10.5 hours a day, on average. I allow myself 0.5 hours to get water, use the restroom, and sometimes grab a bite to eat

Same. More than ever. From when I wake up to when I go to sleep though not at 100% capacity that whole time. There’s no “I guess I should go home, the cleaners are here” to draw a line like in the office and to be fair, the same work takes longer now. Also, 8 hour work days? Our usual pre corona days were 9.5h!
