For a few glorious weeks in a past job I managed to work 2x16 1x8, yeah those days really sucked but you get a 4 day vacation every single week.i don't think any employer would want to offer such a schedule but I would probably be willing to take a paycut to get it back.
- jfengel 6y agoI'd be reluctant to have an employee work regular 16 hour days, much less two in a row. It's not impossible that that 16th hour would be productive, but I'd put the burden of proof on them. Especially if we were talking about any kind of creative work, including programming. I'd rather have an employee work 2x12+1x8. I'd rather they give me 32 productive hours than 32 productive ones + 8 dubious ones. I'm aware that we frequently make doctors and nurses work those kinds of shifts. And people die because of it. I would much rather we reoriented the system so that we didn't have to require that of them.
