Link of the Day [7.19.25]
This should post on Saturday when most any working person has the day off. Saturday is only the first day of the two days for that comprise the weekend. Everyone would love to have a three day weekend.
I do. I have a three day weekend, because my job has gone to a 4-40 schedule.
I love the three day weekend. I am even writing this post on my day off — Friday!
Except that to have this I have to work a mind and ass-numbing 10 hours Monday to Thursday. It’s asinine. Let’s just do thirty-two hours of work for the four days. I know this is impossible for the Capitalists to understand or to agree with.
So I’ll compromise. Thirty-six hours. Nine hours a day. Four days a week. And I’ll still sleep in on Fridays.
