Maybe people struggle because there’s always more work to do. And maybe people aren’t good at taking a break. Also, the 2 day weekend is an arbitrary construct

Maybe people struggle because there’s always more work to do. And maybe people aren’t good at taking a break.
Also, the 2 day weekend is an arbitrary construct.
Plus think of all the millions more people volunteering, looking after their elderly loved ones, going to the park, spending money in shops.
I think a 4 day week makes perfect sense
- Kognito 8y agoWell done for reading only the first few words of the post you replied to. They were talking about the financial impact to those who work on an hourly wage.
- toomuchtodo 8y agoIncrease the hourly wage to account for 8 less hours in the work week.
- King-Aaron 8y agoIt sounds so easy when you just say it like that.
- ninedays 8y agoCouldn't it be the case? France managed several times to reduce the number of hours while maintaining the exact same salaries. Not saying this is perfect or it should be the only thing that's done but I really don't see any argument on why it cannot be done. Edit : typos
- w4tson 8y agoYou got me there. It’s behind a paywall. I couldn’t read it. My opinion that 4 day week is a good thing for the UK still stands :)
