I need it to be a time, not too far apart, and regularly occurring, when I can have a fair certainty that friends and/or family will be available for activities together.
As a knowledge worker, it's easy for my work to bleed into my leisure time, and it's already hard enough to fight when I've got well-defined personal time. I feel like abolishing the weekend would be a bad idea for the same reasons that "unlimited vacation" policies are bad ideas.
- Damogran6 10y agoAgreed. The problem with comp time and swing/night shifts have to do with the inability to have time with the REST of your friends/relatives. Sure, an occasional Tuesday after a nasty weekend is nice, but I wouldn't want to make a habit of it.
