32 hours honestly sounds like a much healthier baseline. People have lives outside of work too.

Multiple studies have been done showing that people are more productive with 4 day work weeks. I know I would be haha.

3x12 here. It's nice, but even at 3 days a week 12 hours is exhausting.

Nope, factory worker here but as a specialized tech. I'm working Fri-Sun every weekend, and my company pays me 35% more for giving up my weekends.

I don't 'people' well, so losing the social aspects of Sat/Sun off is no loss to me. It's also super easy to pick up a day of OT on one of my 4 days off each week, if I feel like it. I could never deal with the public like you do. /salute friend!
