Working 9 to 5... 4 Days A Week?

"Workin' 9 to 5, what a way to make a livin'

Barely gettin' by, it's all takin' and no givin' "

- Dolly Parton, "9 To 5"

Ok, so the majority of the population do not work these hours anymore and that's the point of our chat. There's talk of the Four Day Work Week as a future trend and it boils down to this: Is that a good idea in the long term?

#GnawOnThis with us:

  • Can you do your job within 4 days vs. 5 days?
  • If you have the option to work on your own time as long as you finish the tasks, would you take that option?
  • What would it take for employers to convince them that a 4 day work week is better or worse for employees?
