They have a 5-minute work week.
And those 8 guys control the whole country. Nay, the world, at this point
A 4-day workweek would be lovely if monthly salaries stayed the same (= hourly wages went up). Then I could work three days a week and get 75% of a full-time salary instead of just 60%, which would be kind of like a 25% raise. That'd leave me with so much more time to be silly :3
I work 36 hours so 4 or 5 days every other week. I love my biweekly free Monday we get so silly with it :3 I'd take 4 days a week every week for the same money tho hehe
I think the 4 day work week is generally presented as 10 hour days.
There are several ways it's presented. But anything other than four 8-hour days with the same salary is just trying to pander to the rich people to make it more appealing to them. I personally would feel pretty terrible having to work 10 hours a day, and it would negate the positives of having an extra day off. It'd work for some people but it wouldn't be a real win for the working class as it would be the same number of working hours even though productivity has skyrocketed in the previous decades
Middle managers are also against it. It's not like they have friends at home...
Better not change anything on such a controversial topic
But thise guys are like... REALLY rich
