Would you rather a 4 day work week of 10 hr per day or 5 day work week 8 hr a day?

Teaching in a rural school district, we could have avoided major budget cuts had they had the option of a 4 day school week. We could have seen a 20% reduction in bus transportation costs, and nearly equivalent reductions in utilities use and some savings in support staff.

That said...there is no such thing as a 40 hour work week these days. Our joke in Tahoe is that Friday is the new Saturday and Monday is the new Sunday. The four day weekend is a constant thing in resort areas.
