I'm not sure I could condense my work like that. If I have 3 hours of work I want at least 4 hours to do it in. And if you decide you can condense it, employers will simply double everyone's workload, and we are not computers. Maybe 3 hours of work is all anyone can do in a day, and some of us can do it in 3:15 but most of us like to spread it over 8. Plus there are insights that only come in non-active time, again, we aren't machines.
i think there's a different "sweet spot" for everyone. i agree, doing 3h of productivity in 3h is hard enough, but i wouldn't necessarily need to stretch it over 8h, i'd do fine with 5-6h. my last work hours tend to be the most unproductive ones anyway
