Honestly, they're pretty crap. Why don't we have a proper siesta? Why don't things start later? Why don't we, say, do a 3/4 hour shift, have a couple of hours off and then do another one? Why're some places open on Sundays? Why must we work five days out of seven? It does make sense. If i had a company i'd give them Monday mornings off to let them get over the weekend. We'd then work, say, 10-2 & 5-8 Tuesday to Thursday, and flexi-time Fridays, YEAH, then weekends off. What would you do, ideally?

The idea of working till 8 doesn't appeal to me.
On any level. I want to be out enjoying the evening before the clock ticks round.
Also, starting work late like that would just mean I spent more mornings in bed. I'd never see any daylight under your proposal. Or get any work done in the afternoon after a three-hour break. Who wants to go back to work after sitting drinking or whatever for three hours??
Nah.
yeah, probably.
but hour-lunches are never enough, and getting up at 7 isn't the future. What about:
Mon - 12-6
Tue, Wed & Thurs - 10-2 & 4-7
Fri - 10-2.30
Sat & Sun - OFF
eveeryone would have to be on pretty
good wages to make any money with hours like that.
Hour lunches not enough?
I've not had an hour-long lunch break in months. I'd rather take a half-hour break and leave earlier/come in later.
I would cut an hour of my working day
and start at 9 instead of 10.
I would also like 3 day weekends.
i work when i want.
and i generally work 8-4 give or take an hour. it's nice finishing early enough to do stuff in the afternoon.
Never work in construction
I work 8 till 5.45, yet the other day I got told off for always being "first in, last out". Most people start at 7.30 and a good number start at 7.00. My line manager does 7.00 till 8.00/8.30.
And sometimes you have to work Saturdays.
Its shite :-(
*last in, first out
