Would you prefer a four-day
working week?:smile (73): In 2008, the
state of Utah needed to save
money. So, instead of cutting
social services, the governor
came up with a radical,
new idea. He decided to
give civil servants Fridays
off. So, instead of working
from 9am till 5Pm, five days
a week, they worked from
8am till 6pm, four days a
week. Employees still did
the same number of hours,
but in less time. Utah saved
millions on electricity and,
with people commuting
less, the state cut carbon
emissions by 14%. Also,
eight out of ten employees
preferred the new schedule
and most said it made them
more productive. And now
many companies around
the world are offering
similar "compressed hours".
Michael Honey, who works
for a design studio in
Australia, said a four-day
week gives him more time
"to play, to reflect, to be
human." And Anna Coote,
an economist, also thinks
it's a great idea. "If we
worked less, there would be
more jobs, and that would
reduce unemployment.
It would also help people
slow down - we are under
pressure to live life at such a
fast pace."

I prefer that ^^
,
the idea was saving money
but look what he came up with
saving electricity, the air became clean
the people became relaxed and can do what they like
,
I do believe that order reflected on themselves in a good way
