Years ago I was doing consulting work for a startup, and was able to negotiate a 4 day week. I worked 2 days at a time with Wednesday off.
My next job was as an FTE at another very early stage startup, where we were constantly working and in the office 6 days a week, with some all-nighters before demos etc.
I was vastly more productive during the 4 day week period.
- randycupertino 5y agoThat sounds like a great schedule- you could use Wednesday to do chores and errands, "life stuff" and then actually relax and enjoy the weekends! One of the biggest perks of moving to wfh for me has been the ability to do random household chores on breaks from work during the week and now actually have weekends for relaxing instead of things like laundry and grocery shopping.
- zepto 5y agoExactly - generally I used Wednesday mornings to do life stuff, and then just unwound and relaxed in the afternoon. I was very energized for Thursday and Friday compared to my colleagues.
