For 2 years when I was consulting, I worked a 4 day week, but I chose Wednesday as my extra day off. Nobody else had a long weekend, so it wasn't that great for me to always have one, but with a mid-week break I never worked more than 2 days in a row, which meant I was always fresh and productive and enjoyed both work and leisure time more.
