Hi Alec,

In some countries here in Europe, and in some working environments, 4 and a half days is common.

I would have liked to try the longer work days and a 3 day weekend every week. But I have had a short work day over 5 days and that was great too.

The one thing that I do like is the 5 week holidays… Although your job might not allow you to take the time off at one time most years, when you can do it, it is a great way to totally revitalize your life.

Hi Cindy,

Fascinating to learn of the Utah 4-day workweek experiment. Have recommended this to a colleague – perhaps it will become more widespread.
