4 day work week in exchange for working weekends… they obviously didn’t interview the brightest lot there
How so? It doesn’t seem too off to me that 1/4 of people would prefer working, say Wed-Sat (4 days) over Mon-Fri (5 days) I’d happily sacrifice a Saturday off in exchange for two weekdays off, all else equal.

What a load of bull shit. I just want a job that doesn’t waste my time with managers and work that isn’t properly scoped and deadlines that are unrealistic. We waste so much time going to meetings and talking about the work we need to do. Fuck this I’m not giving up pay ill just get my job done in 5 hours then do what I want for the rest of the day.

So you going to be unemployed for the rest of your life

Who are these young people, and how can they afford a pay cut?! What the actual fuck?
