Seriously. But I'd rather formalize the 10 hr workday and switch to 4x10s. I think it's superior to 5x8s because you can get longer continuous periods of work

  To each his own. I prefer working a little each day and not stress myself too much. I think what needs to happen is an increased in flexibility. To me it seems that society has done a piss poor job in figuring out how to accommodate to women and new types of knowledge work - which requires a lot of flexibility.

    Agreed. Wouldn't having some people on five-day workweeks of 5x6, and others four-day workweeks of 4x10, and still others doing whatever lead to companies having to hire more people to fill in the blanks? Wouldn't that help lower unemployment?

    I've come to the conclusion that more flexibility often leads to a race to the bottom. Like the "unlimited vacation" that's so popular now. Same with flexible hours, I'd guess. Anyone know how to combat that aspect of it?

  " With emails, meetings and lunch, I feel like I don't really get going until 3pm." That sounds like a really wasteful work environment. You spend tremendeous amount of time just synchronizing with people. That's just bad management and lack of vision from your employers part, not a law of nature.
