We should kill the 40-hour work week
&gt; Give yourself one day with no work<p>If killing the 40-hour work week means I&#x27;m now working six days a week instead of five, then long live the 40-hour work week.<p>Some people (myself included) need two days per week off work, except in special circumstances.  We also need to be able to clock out of work and not feel bad about doing so just because we still have work.  The worst thing about university to me was the feeling of always having more work to do.  I understand avoiding the &quot;I&#x27;m just working until the clock hand turns a little further&quot; state, but often the cumulative effects of the proposed alternative are worse.
