Comment on A manufacturer tried the 4-day workweek for 5 days' pay and won't go back
themurphy@lemmy.world 7 months agoIt’s too much for everyone, unless your work is your life.
In jobs where 8 hours are no problem, you usually have some periods of time, where you can shut off your brain. Driving to a new location, frequent breaks in the office or practical duties for some variation.
Corporate desk jobs are awful longer than 6-7 hours.
I’d say I only get 6 hours of work done a day. With WFH I just potter about and go on my phone for the rest of it.
I felt bad about it for a while, but the alternative is that I quit and leave my employer in the shit because the team is tiny and they struggle to recruit.
Agreed! I think all should do max 6-7 hours a day, but it’s really bad when you have an especially mind-numbing work. :(

In most of my jobs I like to use the last hour to lay out what im doing the next day
