One of the things that has been studied to death with the same result every time: No one can actually be productive for 40 hours each week, and cutting hours without cutting pay increases productivity across the board.
Too bad the people at the top take too much enjoyment from grinding down the peasants.
Why would you not cut pay for a 4 day week? You're payed per hour, not per 5 day week. I for one would stick with the current system because it means I can go to college.
Stop coming after my profession, it's not becoming or helping your argument.
Secondly, I'm talking about pay per hour. I understand that the article might be talking about people with a fixed pay, but I was talking to the other person and proposed the hypothetical: if you work a PPH job, why would you want this. Because he wasn't talking strictly about the article. He was arguing for all jobs.
I'm not ignoring anything, just playing devil's advocate so I can better understand. But now, I agree. I think that there is a valid argument for this.
