Shorter working week


Recommended Posts

I would love to work 6-til-2, 5 days per week. 2pm is early enough to get home and do things. Finishing at 4:30pm arriving home at 5pm is horrible - I hate it!! Don't know why manufacturing jobs don't adopt the the 6-2 pattern.

 

As it is, this is how my week plays out...

 

Monday - (tunnel vision for Friday) = zombie day

Tuesday - still not with it, but by mid afternoon I'm in my stride!

Wednesday - in full swing now..I'm pumped!!

Thursday - one day to go, so start to wind down

Friday - do as little as possible then go home!!

 

But years back when I did the 6-2 shift it was fantastic. Buzzing because you knew you'd be home just after dinner!!

Did you get up and go straight to work? Didn't you used to shower etc and have your breakfast before going to work?

 

Shower after work / wash in morning

No breakfast just a morning cuppa

 

Normally 40mins from bed to work - no rushing!!

Thinking back - I'd be home, showered and dressed for 2:30 - 2:45 ish ready and buzzing

Well obviously if I did anything to get dirty I'd have another shower before bed!! Obviously

Otherwise just another wash in the morning - what's wrong with that??

 

Although not related to this thread - fact is whenever I use public toilets it's always and I mean always "suits" that walk out without washing their hands!! No doubt on their way to a business meeting complete with the obligatory handshake !!! EEWWW

I always feel sweaty and grubby when I wake up in the morning. In fact when I work I tend to shower before work and then after work.
