3 hours a day wouldn't be that useful. You still have to "be" somewhere 5 days a week.
What is useful; I did this for a few years; 3 x 8hr days. Mon - Wed, normal work hours, and a 4 day weekend. No need for "public holidays" even paid time off becomes less relevant, when you can switch one week to Wed - Fri. Leaving Thur - Tue as a "normal" way to take time off, giving a 6 day weekend possible every second week.
Everyone cant have all the same days off, there is already divide between service and shift workers and everyone else, a longer weekend would make it worse. The time off has to be spread around and Holidays do need to exist to make exceptions so everyone can hangout at the same time.
Agreed, but crossing over on Wed would work out for changes.
It kinda sucks that there's a prime number of days in a week.
Good thing a week is arbitrary. Maybe we can change this!!
