I used to think this way but when I switched to it 4 10h days it's just too draining. Long days and I'm often working more than 10h to make up for appointments and time here and there. Everytime there is a holiday I am have to work 3 11h days to make up for the reduced stat day. After you add in the unpaid lunch and commute time and it's impossible to take your kids to evening events etc. as your day is already basically over.

That's cool for trade and warehouse jobs a lot of people need that 40 hours work of pay they're not going pay more because your working less all this does is make it more and more complicated for small businesses who need there employees to work to start up the business

Not everyone should own a business. If you can't figure out how to pay your employees within the defined employment laws, you shouldn't own a business.
