With Wednesday off you'd still get the occasional three day weekend. With various Sundays and Fridays off for whatever civic or religious holidays.

But in that case, isn't Thursday optimal since you get the occasional 4-day weekend while still breaking the week up? Even without it, you get to rest up for Friday before having more rest on Saturday and Sunday?

by Anonymous 1 day ago

When it comes to 4 day week discussions my base assumption always is that everyone would get the same day off as a baseline. In which case it doesn't matter whether it's monday or friday that is off, 3 day weekend is 3 day weekend. Not that I wouldn't mind letting people chooce their preferred day off or having staggered days off so that some have their day off on mondays, some on wednesdays, and some on fridays. And some would still work weekends with their actual weekend in the middle of the week like they do now. Honestly having a more staggeredly scheduled society would be better for a lot of people because then they'd be able to handle their business at banks etc on their days off instead of having to deal with banks being open only within business hours. On the flipside it'd make matching schedules with friends/family harder, but that's already how it is for the people in the service industry; might as well spread the pain instead of focusing it on the people already getting the short end of the stick on most things.

No, Grey's idea was the insanely stupid suggestion that we should take Wednesdays off instead of Saturday which would be absolutely miserable for 90% of normal people including those who have literally done shift work that pretty much has this exact schedule. It blows. Absolutely blows to not have two consecutive days off, by time you even start to recharge it's time to go back to work.

I personally like the idea of never working more than 2 days in a row. It's basically a mini weekend in the middle of the week. Regarding holidays, like Christmas, I don't like it in the middle of the week because then it complicates travel plans if I need to fly anywhere, and it essentially forces me to travel on a weekend and crowds make me rage.

I work 4 days a week. I prefer to have my days off all together as it allows us to go away more often. We like to camp or go for a weekend at the casino or just go into the big city and get a room for the weekend. These little trips feel like mini-vacations and are so relaxing as we unplug for the 3 days and I forget all about work. I would hate to have my days off broken up as then I wouldn't be able to go anywhere and enjoy my time off.

by OkNature1375 1 day ago

I agree. A former employer had a use it or lose it policy with PTO, but Fridays and Mondays were more difficult to take off because they tended to be busier for me...so I'd start taking Wednesdays off towards the end of the year. It was AMAZING. Not working more than 2 days in a row was great because I'd feel nice and refreshed. I still have my normal weekends for weekend shenanigans, but having a day mid-week to get errands and stuff done was great. Of course, the issue is if EVERYONE is off Wednesday, all the stuff that was convenient to do then is now less convenient...since everyone else is out, too.

by Anonymous 1 day ago

I had something similar. I had to burn a bunch of PTO before the year end, but couldn't take a chunk of time off because of others. So I took a Tuesday or Wednesday off (we work 4/10's) for basically the last 3 months of the year. And it was great.

I've always said this. Wednesday is THE best day of the week to have off. It's usually quieter in public spaces. Gives you only 2 days to work in a row. Good rest day so weekends can be more productive. If I'm using vacation time, it's on a frickin Wednesday

Hard disagree. Three days in a row offers a lot more opportunities, longer driving times, etc. What is even better, however, is the staggered 4 day workweek.

Disagree. Having a single day off in the middle of the week is almost useless. This is why we 'observe' holidays on the first-monday, rather than midweek. If I am going to work 4 10hr days (because let's be real: Nobody's going to pay you for 40hrs of work and let you just do 32), then they might as well be T-F or M-TH so I can have 1 day to sleep in & 2 to get hobby-stuff done (or 3, if I'm not super tired).... Also my ability to get stuff done at work would be messed up by a mid-week break.

Counterpoint: if you have two days that are split it tends to feel like you never have a day off at all. The same feeling would apply to the Wednesday day off where it would feel wasted because you never get out of the "work is over" mentality since you'll be back at work the next day. The real answer is people should be allowed to write their own schedule, at least if they have seniority.

Yes! When I worked for the State and before they changed their policy, my birthday fell on a holiday week. The holiday always fell on one of my weekend days, so I was able to take off a random day that week (my birthday, sometimes the day after if I had plans). The random day off in the middle of the week was amazing. The. They changed the policy to "next work day". I burned out three times in four years. I loved that job, but it was a soul-suck.

I agree with you on this one. When I first started working a hybrid schedule, we did Wednesdays from home and the rest from the office. I know it wasn't technically an "off day", but not having the commute, business attire, being around people in the office, etc was a great mid-week break. I felt it helped me feel more refreshed than had that work from home day been on a Monday or Friday.

by Cultural-Leader 19 hours ago

I think I worked out numbers wise that Friday or Wednesday was good, and absolutely not Monday. In the UK most of the Bank Holidays (of which we get not that many) are on Monday, so you want all of those as an extra freebie day. Wednesday can be fragmented. Friday off is a good run. But always work Monday.

I think a 4-day school day with Wednesday off -- for high schoolers -- would be ideal. It'd make sense to have the kids in school 4 days each week /working at home one day. Putting the "work at home day" in the middle of the week wouldn't feel so much like a weekend /but more like a school day in a different place. However, for adults, I'd say a 3-day weekend (with either Monday or Friday as the day off) makes more sense. Or, what really would make sense would be for half the office to be off on Monday /the other half off on Friday -- so customers could still come in any day of the week.

With the 4-3 cycle, you can also use 4 days PTO to get 10 days off, which is enough for a standard vacation instead of a mini one. With the 2-1-2-2 cycle, 4 days gets you 9 days off. Not too much of a difference, but potentially time for a day's rest. Also, three day weekend means you can go hard for two days in a row and then recuperate on the last day so you aren't too tired for work.
