At my last job and now at my current job, I negotiated from full time work to less than full time work. Last time, I didn't work Fridays and now I work 20 hour weeks. In each case, I am absolutely more productive (per hour) that I honestly don't know if I get any less work done. On top of that, I have much more creativity and energy. From this experience, I'm always on the side of pushing for less work hours per week as a standard.
- ThrustVectoring 12y agoI know that I have roughly 5-6 hours worth of productive programming time in any given day. If I had a job where I was required to be on-site for eight hours a day, I'd get roughly the same amount of work done. Maybe even less, since I'd practice sitting at my work desk not doing things for 2-3 hours per day. I'm a huge fan of the whole "notice you're not accomplishing much -> go home" plan.
