- dagw 4y agoOnly works if everybody agrees on which day is the '5th' day. My wife has chose to work 4 days a week (80%) and she has to constantly fight to keep her free day actually free, since people keep trying contact her or book stuff with her on that day.
- kwindla 4y agoWe try to nudge towards making this possible by having a "soft rule" discouraging scheduling any standing or cross-team meetings on Fridays.
