    I interpreted 2-3 hours out of 8 as part-time but I see what you mean.

    However, in America, absolute fiction getting decent benefits anywhere, nevermind a fucking mattress firm

      That’s a really weird way to interpret it. The far more obvious interpretation is that they’re employed for 8 hours, but the only actual active productive working time is 2–3 hours.

      Depends on how one defines decent. But most full-time jobs do offer some form of healthcare benefits. Granted, it’s rarely ever fully covered by the employer, but still.
