The case for a 4-day work week

A 3 day weekend sounds about right - plenty of time to decompress, to do fun stuff, to take care of responsibilities, to reflect and explore. Technological increases in productivity should be used to give us all increased leisure time - which is in itself productive (in terms of being better humans), and even drives demand for the entertainment sectors.

For knowledge workers who are productive enough to be able to experience a four-day work week, should society do anything to support essential workers so that they can also have a four day work week?

If a company needs to operate M-F, they could also split their workers into two groups: 1. Monday off, 2. Friday off.<p>And those groups can switch every month or quarter.

Does anyone meaningfully disagree with this idea?<p>(Note: if you like work, and want to do more than four-days of work, _you get to have a whole extra day to start your own company under this idea_)

I like work. If my company switched to a 4-day work week I would switch jobs.
