My company only makes us work 37.5 hour weeks (score!) and offers my department the 4 day schedule. It's pretty good, except that those 9.5 hours of data entry can be rough. Add in my 2 hours of commuting time and my evenings are very short. My productivity probably has fallen as well. Some days from 4 to 5:30, when everyone else has left the office, I spend a lot of time staring out the window. But man oh man, do I love those Thursdays off.

It would save me a lot of money on gas. Unfortunately I have a round trip commute of 70 miles a day, and there is no reasonable, reliable public transportation that I can take. Having Fridays off would save me quite a bit of money each month. Plus it would be great to have longer weekends. I would be jumping for joy if my agency went to a four-day work week.

Right now I usually am at work for at least 10 hours a day anyway(course I can take off for 2 hour bike ride in the middle of the day for PT). in fact this week I came in today at 6 and won't go home until sometime Friday. Guess that is the way it is when working for uncle sam. Man gimme 4 10s anytime.
