3 day weekend?

How great would a 3 day weekend be?.
Why don't we have one?
A 3 day weekend would enable working people to get their shopping done, house work done, leaving a day for their well being, and good old rest.

When we think about well being and having a nice work life balance.. it seems to make sense to me that the better we feel as people.. the more productive we would be in all areas of our life.

I think Boris should push for a 3 day weekend.. or we should :)

I'm a dreamer....

  1. I can't argue that a 3 day weekend wouldn't be awesome, I guess that's why I take so many Monday and Friday vacation days. However, if I'm the boss....and I am for at least a few people, I'd want them working.

    Sometimes in my office when it's slow, we have what we call "green time". During those times people can go home early, using vacation time or just taking that time without pay. They love it, I think it's an awful idea. There is always something to do. Whether it's training or reviewing work or just doing the work we do have.

    A three day weekend.....yeah, where do I apply for that?!?

  2. Green time huh.. sounds interesting.. not so keen on the unpaid leave bit though. I think when you're the boss your viewpoint changes somewhat, and that's fair enough.

    A 3 day weekend will benefit all I think, even bosses.
    I wonder.. would the structures of society fall apart?

    1. Seems to me that people are lazy enough as it is.
