I can attest to the improvement in my sex life after covid had us both WFH for at least 2 days/week. Less tired, time to fuck when the kids aren’t home. Huge win.

Good. Shit like this is how you stop CEOs from getting NYCed. Though Japan still has a long way to go towards work life balance.

Considering the big changes after Abe’s death I’m surprised there weren’t more copycats assassinating for other causes, including work hours/black companies.

Don’t worry, there is still room for that.

I worked at a place with every other week Fridays off. It was amazing. People could actually go to Dr appts. Actually made us much more productive.

I have been working 4/5 (fridays off) and it was amazing.
I’m quite sure I was at least as productive as any one on 5/5.

I had 12 weeks of paternity leave at my last job. The only rule was that, as secondary caregiver, I couldn’t take it all at once.
I spread out the last 8 weeks and took every other Friday off for several months. It was awesome, and if it reduced my productivity, the difference was imperceptible. I had to be a little more keyed in on Mondays, sure, but I always felt more than capable after a long weekend.
