The idea of a three-day weekend looks nice, but it should be applied to people, not services! Services should be still open Monday to Friday, just with 80% of the people working in.
- ljf 10y agoYes I was wondering why they didn't either cycle the extra day, or have 100% Tue-Wed-Thurs then 50% Mon&Fri - using hot desking so that much of the office space can be shut down. Other advantages are that 2 working parents who each had an opposing day 'off' would only need child care for 3 days instead of 5, resulting in lower costs and more family team. I know that would be great for me!
