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.)Fuck everything about 5 day work weeks.I'll gladly switch to any job that offers a 4 day work week. It's one of the best perks.As someone with ADHD, work days are entirely spent getting work done. There isn't any extra slack or allotment for personal tasks. They're 100% owned by the employer.Weekends offer barely enough time to catch up with chores. There isn't enough time both to catch up and still have fun. I use vacation time to catch up on chores, so that's spent too.I don't want to spend most of my life working. I feel like a slave, and now my youth is almost gone.I don't care if it's a 10hr/4day schedule or a 9hr/4day 8hr/4day with less pay, I want an extra day for myself. I'm an excellent engineer aside from my ADHD quirks, and I'll go anywhere that offers this where I live.My own startup (I almost have the capital for a long runway) will be 9hr/4day.Fuck everything about 5 day work weeks.
