How about 4 days a week with eight hour days? Why are we still holding onto the notion of 40 hours being the standard?
Exactly. I thought the point of AI was to improve productivity. If that's the case then we should stay productive with putting in less man hours. But instead the work culture wants us to work faster and keep the same hours. Sigh
I would very happily make the switch to a 4 day work week. 2 day weekends are just not near enough time to recharge from the week plus catch up on things I need to do and want to do. A three day weekend would be a huge improvement.

I agree! That extra day helps so much and I feel like it would actually be so helpful to most people. I hope one day we can actually move towards this
I would love to work fewer days a week and more hours per day. It makes traveling easier and the workweek shorter. I see a better WLB that way and you get to have one day to get things done or do something outside of work.

Yea same! I hope that we get there eventually. It just seems like it's so hard to happen here and any time that efficiencies are introduced in the workplace due to new tech, rather than getting more time off we're asked to do more in the same amount of time
Aren’t we already working longer days anyway? Can you just give us Friday off?
Subject Expert
Ugh I know right! I wish they could but why would they do that when they can continue squeezing us for more and more work
I also prefer have 4 working days. Especially when I start to design, I don't notice time and can work more than 10 hours easily:)
Subject Expert
Yea it's nice when you're already in the flow. It would an extra few hours per day in order to get an extra day back seems like a fair tradeoff
Absolutely! I would love a 4 day week and 3 days weekend. If I’m doing the same amount of time as I would 5 days a week, I could definitely do it in 4 and give myself the 3 off.
Subject Expert
Yea I feel like this is definitely doable for many and I'm hoping that we can take meaningful steps to move towards that eventually even though it seems almost always impossible given the current working standards
I would love having three days off a week. Even if that meant working 4-10 hour days. Having one week day off per week would be really nice.
Subject Expert
Yea I agree!! That extra day to recoup actually helps so much and I feel like it could actually make people more efficient at work so I'm hoping we can move towards that
