Experiments with a shorter workweek have shown that working fewer hours improves worker well-being and productivity. But we can’t expect employers to implement this transformative change of their own volition.

    Give me the same pay for 4 days as for 5 and I agree.

    Cut my pay 20%? Yeah, fuck everything about that.

      I once took 4-day weeks for 80% pay for about 2 years. It was wonderful. Nothing about it whatsoever was to be fucked in any way. But I had the luxury of a very high paying job that allowed me to afford this. And though I could do it, it certainly did cost me a lot.
