Fuck no, I will not budge an inch. Those C Suite motherfuckers stroll on in here for 25 hours a week. Fuck them and fuck the author of this article. I’ll burn my workplace to the ground before I compromise for a 4-day work week.

Why does this sound like it’s all made up? lol. I wouldn’t do any of those things for shaving off one day. I don’t want to just switch miseries.

All of the individual things people say they would give up are under a majority.

Despite the popular belief that younger generations are champions of remote work, one-third of Gen Z and millennial workers say they’d be willing to work fully in-person if it meant shaving a day off of their workweek.

How does paying to commute four days a week versus five days fully remote make any sense? It's still 80% of the cost and time of commuting.

Note that this is one third. And there are people who live close enough to their workplace that it wouldn't add much burden.

[. . .]

Other sacrifices that Gen Z and millennial employees say they’d make in exchange for a four-day workweek include working longer hours (48%), changing jobs or companies (35%), working weekends or evenings (27%) and even taking a pay cut (13%)

Translation:

  • 67% would not switch from remote to in-person
  • 52% would not work longer hours
  • 65% would not change jobs
  • 73% would not work evenings/weekends
  • 87% would not take a pay cut

Hey, studies show 8/4 wouldn’t appreciably lower productivity. Why the fuck should I give my employer anything else?

Fuckin based honestly. I thought they would ask for less compromise, but if they’re gonna go for the gut we’d better just tell them how it is. Less hours are proven to make better working happier more productive and cooperative employees. They’re just potentially less compliant.
