4 Day Work Week: A Study in Productivity and Utter Madness

By popular demand, we've implemented a 4-day work week to boost productivity and increase coffee consumption. Results are in, and let's just say it's been a wild ride.

The Pros

More time for Netflix binging! Our employees now have an extra day to perfect their binge-watching skills.

Increased coffee sales! We're selling more coffee than ever before. Our break room is now a coffee shop.

Improved morale! Who doesn't love an extra day off? (Answer: our accounting department.)

The Cons

More meetings! With an extra day, we've had to schedule more meetings to discuss our new 4-day schedule.

Unbalanced workload! Our Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday are now a blur of meetings and deadlines, while our Friday is a never-ending to-do list.

Unsustainable work hours! Our employees are working longer hours than ever, just not getting paid for them.
