Maybe people could take different "3rd" days off?
- alistairSH 7y agoHow do we decide who gets Friday or Monday (ie, a three day weekend)? I have a friend who once had M-W off, and worked the four remaining days. He hated it because his time off was completely misaligned with his peers, so he had no social life. Edit - I don't have any fundamental problem with working fewer hours or fewer days. But, I think I'd prefer 5x7 hour days instead of 4x8.

- winfred 7y agoI prefer mid week days off (Wednesday, but I'd settle for Tue/Thu). I love to have work weeks of two days. I can imagine there are plenty of other people that prefer the same thing.
- Wowfunhappy 7y agoI'm with you completely, but from talking to others I think we're in a small minority. Most people want a long weekend.
- smrr723 7y agoYou have some sort of rota - half the office gets Mondays off on January, then in February, they're off on Fridays. Having tried both, 4x8 is far better. I don't do much during 5x7 evenings anyway because I'm drained after 7 hours at work, so I'd much rather just cram that into 4 days and have an extra day of rest.
