Microsoft 4-day week boosts productivity and sales
(This is a duplicate of a story posted this past weekend. I want to copy my comment from it for greater visibility.)<p>Fuck everything about 5 day work weeks.<p>I&#x27;ll gladly switch to any job that offers a 4 day work week. It&#x27;s one of the best perks.<p>As someone with ADHD, work days are entirely spent getting work done. There isn&#x27;t any extra slack or allotment for personal tasks. They&#x27;re 100% owned by the employer.<p>Weekends offer barely enough time to catch up with chores. There isn&#x27;t enough time both to catch up and still have fun. I use vacation time to catch up on chores, so that&#x27;s spent too.<p>I don&#x27;t want to spend most of my life working. I feel like a slave, and now my youth is almost gone.<p>I don&#x27;t care if it&#x27;s a 10hr&#x2F;4day schedule or a 9hr&#x2F;4day 8hr&#x2F;4day with less pay, I want an extra day for myself. I&#x27;m an excellent engineer aside from my ADHD quirks, and I&#x27;ll go anywhere that offers this where I live.<p>My own startup (I almost have the capital for a long runway) will be 9hr&#x2F;4day.<p>Fuck everything about 5 day work weeks.
