UAW president Shawn Fain has called for a 32-hour workweek. It’s the revival of an old vision in the US labor movement — and the sort of ambition overworked and underpaid employees need.
The best work schedule I ever had was a Navy watch schedule that was 4x12’, 3 days off, 3x 12’, 4 days off before a switch to night schedule. Aside from switching from days to nights every 2 weeks, I absolutely loved it.
I have pushed for this where I work. Apparently there are people who greatly value their time off after work, even moreso than having yet another day off every other weekend. I get almost nothing done after work, so it would be nothing but good for me.
