40 hour work week ?

i work at a restaurant 20 hours a week, i make enough to pay my bills and do recreational activities. But friends and family say i NEED to be working 40 to 50 hrs a week to “keep my mind stimulated”. I tell them the same thing every time they bring it up: “sorry i dont want to spend nearly 75%of my life working, only to have fun when im 65 and brittle” but why are these old people tellin me i need 40 hrs. Did they just grow up doing it so they expect every generation born after to do it or what ? Cuz these are the same people who say “theres a labor shortage” no shortage, we just dont wanna work for people who treat us like shit.
