I'm pulling for Monday. Friday's already mostly a write-off.

So I work annualised hours, based on a 35hr work week. So summer hour are Mon thru Fri 41hrs total, winter is Mon thru Thurs 31hrs total. I actually like the setup, as a mason I'd actually not mind doing longer hours than we are in the summer and even shorter in the winter, as the weather is too shit in the winter to actually get anything done anyway.

Once you all agree on a day, let me know and I'll take the other one. No queues anywhere!

I sincerely do not know as I'm currently unemployed to try and imagine a 4-day work week. I mean, it would be a good thing, more time to dedicate for things you like the most (such as a hobby and/or family and/or pets and/or entertainment and/or spirituality/beliefs/religion and/or education/courses). But it'd only work if there's any job. With the ongoing situation with AI replacement, profit-eagerness culture of businesses, I don't really have optimistic views on the future of employment, with or without 4-day work week.

I already have a four day week and itβ€˜s really great to not work on Fridays.
