No, but the four workday movement isn't particularly strong atm. The five out of seven isn't some magical number, neither is 8 hrs rest 8 hrs work 8 hrs leisure. It's all things unions worked towards. With productivity rising substantially and wages stagnating it should follow that we get to work less, but alas the overlords say no, work more, hey your co-workers has done more hours wtf are you doing.

I think its that way, because if work days were on a cycle independent of the calendar week, it’d be really confusing. And you can’t really dismantle the 7 day week since literal billions of people organize their religious life according to it. Just ask the French revolutionaries, people don’t like you messing with the week.

This is a hard disagree from me. I feel the MAIN issue of the weekend still isnt addressed which is not having time to do the things you couldnt do during the week (clean, grocery, etc) AND have time to recharge. I think most people feel not that the work week is too long, but the weekend is too short. A 3 day weekend solves this almost flawlessly
@Fools_Blade

Couldn't have said better myself I think that school/work tend to forget that we have other things going on at weekends what makes it worse is that they may even try to give you more work at home in the weekends and when you tell somebody that you can't rest they say "oh but you had all of the weekend to rest" and when you need more time to work "oh but you had all of the weekend to finish that work"

The big downside: this means I can't devote a day to "longform (social) entertainment" that may run for 5+ hours in the late afternoon or evening. (E.g. Game Night with friends) If I do it on the Saturday, I have to start late because of work, I'm already tired and don't have any time to do necessary hobby prep. If I do it on Sunday, I have work in the morning and have to cut things off early. For people who enjoy clubbing or other noctural activities, this would be even worse since they're already tired from a work day going into it on the Saturday, and they just can't do it on the Sunday since they actually need to sleep.

I'll agree with you there, there are many, albeit more rare, instances where the traditional weekend cycle does pose distinct advantages. As someone who grew up with separated parents, a weekend wednesday would have made it a nightmare to organize weekends with dad when only a single night at a time without school. However, as mentioned in the video, it would be advantageous for only a portion of society to follow the weekend wednesday cycle, as it would mean that saturdays for those following traditional weekends would have more people working and fewer people shopping or doing errands than normal. Personally, I would like to follow the weekend wednesdays now that I am independent of my parents

On a Friday nothing gets done all day *except* for 3:30-5.

@@flakgun153 Clearly you miss the OP's point, and what would the problem be if the employees "want it to be permanent"? Employee satisfaction is not a negative influence effect to control for, but a favorable outcome. Or do you not realize happier employees are more productive? If its an hourly position, trading time for money at 40 hours per week, why is a 10 hr x 4 shifts vs 8 hr x 5 shifts a problem? I've managed several 24x7 service oriented operations where this was very effective, as I would have transition time with staffing overlap time rather than holding people over for administrative work or training. The 8x5 format is an artifact of the manual assembly line business structure staffing for x number of assembly stations, looking to minimize labor costs...

Four day work week used to be a thing in the 70s, but they stagflate. Here's a better solution for employers: Four day work week, hire a second shift to work on the other 3 days. Every position has 2 employees. Both receive the same benefits, but the 3 day guy gets paid 75% of the 4 day guy. Tie it with the demands of wage increase, then shove normally 2 weeks of work (normally done Monday-Friday, then another Monday-Friday, 10 days sub par energy) into one. It's a win-win to literally EVERYONE. Business & services literally operated all week without overworking their employees, employees got, well, all. I can also tied it to other policies that, in US context, would encourage better welfare state. No, even in this current stage of tech, human labor is still needed a lot. Lump of labor fallacy makes sure that it won't be 45% unemployment, more like 20%.

Labor movements in the 20th century thought the workweek would shrink continuously as technology improved and society became more efficient.

People literally started fighting for the 8-hour day in 1817, and it took over 100 years to be achieved, but now that we've got it surely we can all see that we can do better? Or are we no more imaginative or hopeful than literal peasants during the French Revolution? It's time to demand 4 hours per day, 4 days a week!

I've tried both Wednesday off (together with Saturday and Sunday, not instead of one of them) and Monday off (basically a longer weekend), half a year each. I prefer the longer weekend to be honest. The free Wednesday often felt like wasting a day. I was never really able to take my mind off of work, constantly thinking about things I wanted to do the next day. It never felt as a real day off. The free Monday on the other hand was very relaxing. It allowed me to actually feel refreshed after my weekends. It also allowed my to go on small vacations whenever I wanted, without it feeling like I was there for 15 minutes and already needed to go back home again. That made my vacations a lot more relaxed, since I no longer felt the need to constantly rush to see everything.

My high school made our Wednesdays completely asynchronous and kept weekends, and I can't even begin to explain how helpful it was! The teachers could establish short office hours and students could work if they wanted, but they were often encouraged to go outside and take a break, which made Thursday and Friday feel just as fresh as a new week! I just hope more places adopt this, I think a lot of it this year is just an exception for COVID protocols

There is a substantial amount of evidence suggesting that a 4 day week actually improves worker productivity and either fully compensates for the additional day off or even improves overall productivity compared to a five day week. Humans are notoriously bad at maintaining focus over long periods. By allowing for frequent short breaks during the day as well as frequent periods of rest throughout the week the productivity of employees at their jobs is at its peak and workers feel happier overall.

Literally. The point of a weekend for me is that Saturday you can go to sleep late and wake up late without worrying about tomorrow, and Sunday you can sleep late and do some other stuff.

my current job is like this. i dont have a set schedule, and i dont know what i'll be working the next week until the friday before. typically i do get two days off scheduled at some point during the week, but they're never next to each other, and i usually get called in on one of them anyway. so i can have anywhere from 4 to 12 days without a break. before this though, i did have a set schedule with two days off next to each other (thursday friday) but i loved that job so much that during vacation weeks when we needed more staff i would sometimes work 2-3 weeks 8hrs a day without taking a single day off. honestly i think it comes down to how much you like your job and how much you're able to cope with its demands rather than how many and when you have days off. if you're doing something that you really, really hate, i dont think any amount of rescheduling breaks and all that would be able to help. i hate my current job and even if i got more days off or moved to a set schedule, it would still be exhausting.

Tradionally, in my country, Wednesday afternoon was an afternoon off, originally for church. I'm 44 and I remember some shops being closed on Wednesday afternoons. That is mostly gone now, but it's still maintained in most primary schools. No school on Wednesday afternoons. That means that that afternoon can be spent on larger activities that would otherwise be more like a Saturday thing. Also, because there's no school on Wednesday afternoons, many parents don't work on Wednesdays, because child daycare would be very expensive that day, with so little school hours. As a result, a lot of businesses are somewhat on hold on Wednesdays. That turns the Wednesday into mini weekend, and it makes it easier to get through the week, especially for children. So it's not an entirely new idea.

That way there are still days everyone is working, days half of us are working, and days where none of us are working. That way making plans with people would work out regardless of their schedule (because everyone takes off wednesday and saturday) while doing things while half of us work is still a possibility (like the DMV or theme park examples). I feel like this would be absolutely ideal for jobs that require rigid scheduling/school. This might be perfect

That’s exactly how it feels. I worked for three years at a store that had an inconsistent schedule, which often resulted in wonky variations of what Grey presented in the video. It sucked. After the first half of the day off it felt like I had to prioritize what relaxing thing I wanted to do (or scramble to do something important that wasn’t work-related) and so there were no true days of rest.

I disagree with the idea this poses that you're losing work energy at a consistent rate every day you're at work too, it doesn't matter to me if I've been to work one day in a row, or two days in a row, or five. after the first one I'm already tired but I'd much rather maintain that rhytm and get to the weekend so I can take off a full day of complete recovery mode and then have an entire day off to do whatever I want. Letting people pick and choose which one they would prefer also wouldn't really work irl, I think, considering how incompetent most middle managers can be.

@TheWhiteStone it's actually not like that. When you have two days off in a row, the _first_ day is hampered by recovering from your workweek and the _second_ day is tainted by the knowledge that you're going back tomorrow. When your days off are split throughout the week, they become equal. Yes you are _always_ going back to work "tomorrow" and that makes it just part of the routine. Plus, don't discount the effect it has on the portion of the adjacent workday you did get off. For example, if you work mornings, the day before off is THE time to start recharging, since tomorrow you get to sleep in and wake up fully rested instead of having to set the alarm clock to get up.
@FinalPineappal
@FinalPineappal 4 года назад
@@Stratelier So according to your explanation, both of your days off are hampered by recovery AND tainted by the knowledge that you have work tomorrow. That seems awful. Never mind if you actually have things to do and errands to run on your days off. That's why consecutive weekend days work well...if I happen to have something to I need to do in my time off, it's okay because I still have another day to rest before I've got to slog it back to work. Ask anyone who has ever worked a crappy job with a variable schedule that your bosses dictate. This bright idea only seems good to people that haven't had to cram everything into the one day off they've got in between workdays.

Not just camping. Having 2 days off in a row has a lot of benefits in other areas. Also, the part of the video where he talks about having Wednesday off, making places much less crowded is very true, but then you're stuck having to get to bed Friday night (when all your friends and family are having fun), and having to work Saturday when most events, family, friends, and many other things are going on and doing stuff. Although different from "weekend wednesday", I worked a job where my schedule was Friday-Sunday (yup, only three days a week) 4am-4pm. It was the worst. I'd get to bed thursday night around 8-9pm, get home from work friday around 4:30, then go to bed a few hours later, and repeat that the next two days. Monday-Thursday, i was sitting around bored all day because nobody else could do anything, because they were working!!!

Totally agree! When I used to work in call centers, during the shift bids I always tried to get the 4 10s with Wed/Sat/Sun off. You never work more than two days in a row. For my ADHD brain that is easily overwhelmed, it was amazing! I couldn't do Wed and only Sat. I feel like I can't get anything done with only one day at a time off. I say that from decades of experience working in restaurants and retail.
