My situation is a bit different - I still work 40 hours most weeks but I only do 4 10 hour days most of the time. Personally, I love it. I don't really mind staying an extra two hours (and my evenings alone in the office are very productive - imagine 2-3 hours every day with no email from coworkers), and having three day weekends is amazing. Not only for errands, but I think it really makes a difference in my mood coming back to work to have what my culture treats as a holiday weekend most weekends.
- douche 11y agoCompletely different industry (diesel mechanic at a power plant) but this is the kind of schedule my father has worked for years. It works especially nicely, since his company staggers the coverage so that one works Mon-Thurs, then Tues-Friday, so that you get a four-day weekend every other week. Of course, this is an industrial outfit, so they are more used to unconventional schedules due to the demands of rotating shifts for the operators. You can actually get something done, with four days off. Two days is just barely enough to take care of the essentials and recover before its time to go back to work.
