Should America go to a 4 day work week?

[King Poetic]

I’m constantly hearing people saying they overworked, weekends go by so fast and they wouldn’t mind having a Friday or Monday off

or

do you think people should just sucked it up and work 5/6 days a week

The closer we can get to the Nordic European nations the better. They actually support the working class over there.

These countries have free Healthcare, free college, actual welfare, 4 day work weeks etc. THOSE are the true best countries in the world. America is SO trash compared to them. Americans don't realize just how terrible this place is.

Americans are mostly miserable. This country squeezes the life out of you.

Yes but it won't happen because America is a place for business to thrive not employees.

If you want to be an employee, go to the UK. If you want to be an business owner , US

Yes. But just like a lot of jobs can be worked from home a lot of jobs can be done in 4 day work weeks…But some people don’t feel in charge unless they can be out in front of people.

It's really only a one day weekend, on Sunday your mind is preparing for Monday so you mentally can't relax and enjoy the day...

 

[Peter Popoff]

Hate this country. Yes.

 

[Rich Spirit]

Yes. Saturday and Sunday is just not enough

Research even supports that companies that work 4 days a week get more production out of their employees

Employees in Iceland starting working 4 days a week. It didn't hurt productivity, researchers say.

YES!!!!

I now WFH permanently in my role.
And I’m not that busy tbh, but yesterday I had my 1x1 with my boss & she told me she’s getting another team member to help me out to promote a better work/life balance.

some companies care!

We need to scale down to a 4 day work week and gradually go down to 1-2 days.

When I started to research how developed other countries are outside of America are, that is when I realized America ain't all that.

Then on top of that we nowhere near the happiest country in the world

 

[King Poetic]

America is all about wealth over health

so this country will continue to burned out individuals for their own personal gain

is this a joke????

Work 4 days, off for 3 days makes sense. Plus having an off day during week you can get appointments done.
