Round about a day or two. I’d likely make an oopsie while letting the zoo animals out and get myself slaughtered.

Cool, now make them use bytes as the system of measurement and we’ll be on to something.

My base comment was more about the 32 hour work week studies which usually coincide with bills of this nature, showing improved productivity and so the lobbyists overlords had nothing to worry about from the change.

As much as I enjoy my work, making end meet isn’t ever a simple task.

It would have been really nice to have had him as a president for a term. He’d be doing all the same things he’s doing now, but with more authority. It would have been really interesting to watch mainstream media have a meltdown over everything he put forward.

I specifically mentioned not much heavy lifting. The most taxing work I’ve had to do in the past few months was yesterday, lifting a solid core exterior for into place. And the entire second half the day was recovery while I finger painted with wood putty on all the doors and trim.

Regardless of my personal work situation, I can’t deny that there would be mental and health benefits for shorter work weeks. I just really don’t think that more work would get done in less time, which is what a lot of studies on “office” work seem to say.

I’m not opposed to a 4 day work week, but I am always curious as to what jobs the studies have looked at to conclude that people with 4 work days instead of 5 do the same amount or more work.

I’m a construction worker. Despite the jokes about standing around, we work hard. I do not think that a 4 day work week would produce better results than a 5 day in my field.

Just for reference I’ve been doing home rehabilitations for lower income families. There’s not a ton of heavy lifting, there’s just a lot to do.

Also, a lot of guys in my line of work also work side jobs on their days off.
