I recall times when I worked at the office. Friday was a dead day. No one was interested in doing anything but waiting until 5pm. People were wandering around the office like zombies, having endless coffee-breaks and meaningless chats.
I guess that it's quite common situation for office workers, unless they are under strict surveillance and control(f.e. Amazon, EPAM).
- rdsubhas 5y agoYes indeed, I can relate to. But just out of curiosity, if we get used to a 4 day week, will Thursday become the new Friday? (genuine question plz, I have no clue either way)
- sAbakumoff 5y agoWho knows, people are strange creatures. I guess we will find out as more countries embrace 4-days week. In the Netherlands, I hope that the liberal "D66" party will crush the "right-wing" incumbent in the next election, win the majority in the parliament and do something similar to that they did in Belgium.
- McWobbleston 5y agoI think it will in some cases and others it won't. I feel like I would have a hard time making good progress in software if Thursday was a wasted day like Friday often is, but I imagine some people will be able to knock out good progress in 3 days and get back into it the next week
