    Human beings experience a steep drop-off in productivity after ~6hrs, and the worst effect found of switching to a four day work week has been no change but employees are happier, though more often it’s a large increase in productivity and quality.

    While yes, that would be something to consider after fixing everything else, your idea is just this post, please do better.

        I’m saying that low-balling just so we can get a lose-lose in order to not hurt some executives’ feelings is a waste of effort. Besides, workers’ rights are so far behind that we gotta catch up yesterday.

        Or another way: It’s literally the same issue, I’m just not going easy on the worst people just so we can perpetuate the idea that a 40hr work week makes any sense.
