Hours in the Office (vs) Hours Actually Worked

There's plenty of people on here who claim to spend +80-100 hours per week in the office.

But, there's also a lot of people who say they do nothing most of the day, but then when Friday at 4pm rolls around, get slammed with comments to turn.

So, if you stripped away all the non-work from your day (pointless dialogues with coworkers, eating dinner, using the bathroom, taking a break, etc) how many hours of pure work do you do each day?
