The thing about the 5 days a week is that at the weekends you end up doing personal stuff you neglected during the workdays.
I'm not sure that having two more hours a day will free up your weekend, I'm kind of leaning to 4 days a week because you can actually have useful time.
Personally, I wouldn't object to 3 days of non-stop working till the midnight to have 4 free days a week. Things won't pile up and instead of having just evenings, I will be able to leverage full days which will give me better freedom of movement away from where I live.
The 5 days a week schedule is my primary reason that I'm not in a full time job since a while. I was at home at 18:20 max, yet I never had time to do anything for myself.
- high_byte 4y agothose 2 hours (actually 3+ since it's normal for 9+ hours over here) include everything from shops, sun, avoiding traffic and other things I didn't mention or think about. also allows you to plan your day differently, like working 12-6 instead of 9-3 for example. imagine waking up at 6am and only starting work at 12pm...
- Crusoe123 4y agoIn that case being done with work at 12pm sounds like a much better deal.
- twh270 4y agoAs you can probably see from the diversity of comments, this is a very subjective topic. I've seen (just in this thread) everything from "I'm fine with my 6x7" to "I'd love 3x10". Some people would find that having two extra hours a day is great; others wouldn't. For this among other reasons, I'm against a "one size fits all" policy. Give people more than one option, where it's reasonable to do so.
