You realize the entire basis of your point is that the STANDARD is 5 day works weeks. 5 days is cemented as a comparison point. A switch to 4 would be cool and keep you happy. If the original labor laws called for 4 then we'd want 3. It's human nature. And how are you gonna just ignore my second part about our work not being tied to our survival? People don't hate work. they hate the fact that work is seen as bullshyt and a waste of their time. If you had to build your own house I doubt you'd be trying to split work into certain increments.

Lastly, we're ignoring the type of work too. If you run a tech support center you might need to have 24/7 staff which would lead to some people working undesirable schedules.
I think if wages were to increase then alot things would chnage

if i could work from home even 1-2 days a week

i still cant fathom why most people in office have to go in monday - friday for 8 hours a day

I stayed at a job for 7 years even though the pay was meh, because i got 5 weeks vacation, you could work from home however long you wantd (sometimes i only saw people once a year at the christmas party) and every friday they let us go at 12pm.

It was a dying industry (print) so I got out but i enjoyed my time there

compared to now where im in the office 5 days a week driving a hour too and a hour from

5 weeks vacation and you could work at home for ever how long you want? That sound like a good situation. Working mon thru Friday with just two days feels like slave work after awhile especially if your not getting paid good
