    A 4 day work week would be real nice, because for many, Saturday is the recovery/errands day, and Sunday is the stressing about impending Monday day. The article points out about places needing to be open but wouldn’t spreading out hours over 2x 4 day full time positions make more logistical sense than 1x 5day and various part timers on the weekends and here and there, with the overlap on whatever is the typically busiest day?

      Tbh as nice as it sounds that everyone has Sunday off it is one of the few things that need to but will never change(among others are: being able to sell alcohol everywhere and no speed limit on the autobahn and also ‘Digitalisierung’). I’m not saying that people are not entitled to have at least on day of rest every week. But the original ‘Christian’ reason to be able to attend church is way past its time. no one goes to church anyway and people just accept that they can’t buy groceries because ‘oh well it’s sundayshrugs’ People should be able to pick their free day and also be able to buy fricking groceries or go to a hardware store… think about it for a second: it creates job opportunities and collect sales tax…
