Is your office doing summer Fridays?

Pre-covid we had an in-office half day on Friday. Now most of us are remote on Fridays but we have to make sure our 40 hours is in by the time we log off to enjoy the Friday half day at 1pm.

We used to do early Fridays, but not anymore, and feels like a missed opportunity. Is your team pretty good about sticking to that 1pm log-off? It’s a good incentive to stay focused during the week.

Gotcha, that's great incentive though. I like that you have the option and that you still go early because you deserve. It's essential to have your own time to focus on yourself and your family. I hope you make the most of it.

The official rule is if you are in the office 4 days, you can take the half day off, but the practice is don’t book meetings after 1 on Friday if you want people to show up.

4-day RTO, and 36 hours; final 4 hours get coded to “summer Friday” job number.

But no one is complying with the 4-day RTO. There aren’t enough desks or parking spaces.

My office is doing summer Fridays too but yeah you have to log 40 hours before 1pm. I generally try to sign off at a reasonable time Mon-Thurs for my mental health so I don’t really get to take advantage of it
