- Someone 14y ago"Four times nine" (four days of nine hours each week) also is popular, as is "every second Wednesday is a day off". Employers like these because they do not build up vast reserves of free days. If you collect four hours off each week for 36 weeks, you have collected four working weeks of holidays. Add the regular 4-5 weeks of holidays and some national holidays, and you can almost take a three month vacation.
