I'm pulling for Monday. Friday's already mostly a write-off.

If those 4 days also mean 12 hour days, than im not too sure if I'd want thay

I worked a couple 12 hour shifts before, and they left me even more miserably than work usually did

That's not usually what is meant by proponents of the 4 day work week. Instead, they're usually referring to four 8-hour days.

Where I work we do a mix... Some 4 days, 10 hrs each, some 5days 8 hrs each.

Production is typically 4/10 and most other people are 5/8. This allows the other groups a day where production isn't running and other things can happen, like maintaining equipment and running tests without interfering with production schedules. While not requiring support to come in on a Saturday or Sunday.

It works out pretty well for us, except when production does ot on Fridays for weeks in a row and the other stuff can't get done...
