I work four days and it is great. I hope everyone else gets to experience the pleasure.

I'm just gonna scream, I want to just relax and do nothing when I get home but NO, I have to do so much. I have no spoons left to give, yet people keep finding spoons from someone else and force it onto me.

I am hardcore pushing this when I get my reviewed pay (that my boss is still delaying until a "further discussion" because he is a coward). I physically can't actually do 5 days a week any more without straight up lying on my timesheet

I don't think it'd be too bad if I worked from home, I mean obviously WFH isn't the same as a 4-day work week, but still. I can't wait till probation is over. I've gotta wait till December, ugh.

I doubt I’ll see a 4 day work week or working from home being in education.

I turned down an offer to work a 4 day week once. No regrets.
