around Arkansas-- this is exactly what/why they are trying the 4 day work week-- so they can turn off the lights and save energy for 3 days+ save their
employees gas money coming/going to and from work an extra day.

Instead of an 8 hour shift-- they are running 10 to 12 hour shifts- 4 days instead of 5.

I think it's a great move-- now if only they could regulate -- Commerce on these 3 day weekends--- say "no buying, no selling" then maybe Families would spend this time together-- instead of out wasting gas-- driving around "Shopping" and buying more Chinese products that they don't actually need.

 

they probably send em to the labor camp to build another power plant with the survivors of tianamen square

 

My son was working 4-10 for many years. But, they arranged so that those days off never fell on the same days every week. The plant was up and running 24-7. Even shipping and receiving had the same hours. There was no problem with delivering or getting loaded. Even delivery appointments were very relaxed. With a company the size of Chrysler, I would expect the same thing. It has virtually NO EFFECT on logistics.

 

sounds like a great idea, i hope 4 day work weeks happen soon, i am always home for the weekend's anyway, so an extra day at home would be just great!

 

I worked 4-10's for 16 years.

Had Thursday through Saturday off a couple 3 times, had tuesday through friday off a couple times, Had saturday through monday off for a while, and had friday through sunday off for 7 years.

The 4-day week has been hashed, re-hashed, and will get hashed some more.

 

I think that a three day week would be better. If we truck drivers can work 14 than factory workers could do 14. Take two lunch breaks of half an hour for 13 productive hours that would be 39 hours a week.

Then with two shifts one would work Mon, Tue, Wed, and the other would get Thu, Fri, Sat. Three days on, four days off.

 

You "WICKED WICKED BOY!!!"
