To think 32.5 hours is full time?

I'm at work 35 hours a week (5 x 7 hour shifts) with a 30 minute break, so technically it's 32.5. AIBU to think this is full time work?

Was out with some of my mum friends the other night and was straight up told how "it must be quite nice to have part time work even though the DC are in secondary school". My DC are in secondary school yes and I'm working full time because of that? (Not implying people have to of course, but it's full time surely?)

I always considered 37.5hrs FT (40hrs - 30 mins lunch each day) which is what the standard 9-5 working day used to be.

My current workplace everyone is on 35hr FT contracts (although noone only works 35hrs, probably closer to 45!).

If you work 32.5 fixed hours I would say that is PT.
