Germany explores 4-day workweek amid labor shortage in c/upliftingnews@lemmy.world

@UndulyUnruly Oh, you are right on the commuting part. I did not think about that.
Not so sure about the "time with family" argument, though. If I had to work 10h days I would not see my kids when I come home for 4 days. Now I see them every evening. Sure, on the other hand you get 3 WHOLE days to spend with them.
Guess it comes down to personal preference. :)

edit: But the idea behind the 4 day week after all is 4 x 8h, not 4x 10h. Because otherwise the productivity would not increase. And the article clearly states that this is the main goal.

@alphacyberranger Most "4 day week" offers that I read so far just spread out 40 hours of work to 4 days x 10h instead of 5 days x 8h. I don't see the point in that and I do not think that is what this study intended. :)

What will you do if reddit undoes API changes? in c/RedditMigration@kbin.social
[–] CrystalEYE@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

Does not matter if they revert the changes or not at this point. I found a new home here and will keep using it.
I will still keep my reddit-Account and do the same as with my FB-account: Visit the site once a month to check up on the one or two communities that unfortunately stayed there.
