Užíváte si volný pátek? Co byste řekli na to, kdyby to tak bylo každý týden? A pátek bychom mohli věnovat lásce pravidelně. #4DayWorkWeek

🎉 #Asia thinks a 4-day work week is the magic solution to everything—fuel crisis, world peace, and maybe even climate change. 🤔 Who knew that staying in pajamas all day would save the world from the perils of oil dependency? 🚀

Another school district just shifted to a 4-day week and parents are making themselves heard

Totally.

Weirdly, today, Japan, Europe, the Scottish government and other capitalists are embracing a #4dayworkweek (not just 5 days of work compressed into 4) because it's gooder for productivity and other capitalist exploitation metrics.

A weird coincidence, but I'll take it!

🤖🎩 "AI will save us all!" say the prophets of tech, proposing a 4-day week like they just invented sliced bread. Meanwhile, CEOs pat themselves on the back for gifts of free Fridays, ignoring the 24/7 Slack pings. But hey, at least the robots are doing *something* useful. 🙄

Iceland approved 4-day workweek in 2019; six years later, predictions came true

Here's an article on the 4 day work week and UBI which, whilst quite cynical, still shows some important points:

"Already, it’s estimated that, in the first year of ChatGPT, 14 per cent of Americans lost their jobs to robots."

"... because AI will reduce employment.
But if true, it’s hard to see how four days will be any more of a safeguard than five. That’s where UBI comes in..."

What do you think?

Let's just ensure that if the 4-day week becomes standard, everybody gets a 20% raise so that their weekly pay stays the same. And also the minimum wage needs to increase by 20% for the same reason.

“How’s Iceland’s 4-Day Work Week Working? ‘Incredibly Well,’ Study Says

The Iceland story offers a very different vision to countries across Europe that are grappling with low productivity but trying the same old failed methods," said one researcher. #commondreams #iceland #4dayworkweek #labor #europe

#LaborDay #WorkersRights #4DayWorkWeek #UniversalHealthcare #AI #Automation: "Beyond that, we should be thinking about proactive moves too—the time has never been better to advocate for a 4-day workweek, for instance. We’re just taking the AI companies, who say they’re in the process of ushering in a sublime productivity revolution, at their word! What better way to ensure all workers, not just CEOs, share the benefits of this presumably enhanced efficiency? While we’re at it, the same case might be made to agitate for universal healthcare again, too. The case should be obvious: In a world of hyperabundance, everyone gets access to free healthcare. It should be the very first thing. Anything else is immoral. Otherwise you get Elysium.

This is simply to say, for the last two years, investors, policymakers, and corporate enterprises have taken the tech companies at their word when they’ve pitched AI as a revolutionary and transformative technology—they should be methodically pushed to support commensurate revolutionary and transformative social policies, then, no? Unless, of course, they want to admit that they are full of shit.

Now, look; this is of course a haphazard and deeply incomplete list of ideas, but again; what better time to get the ball rolling? There are more people, users, and workers thinking about technology and how it’s shaping their lives—and willing to push back openly when that shape is turning out worse—than anytime perhaps this century so far. Generative AI is in this sense a burden and a beacon; a vast and dull force embraced by management to automate and oppress creative work, that may yet spark a broader reimagining of how we coexist with technology in general. And how we want to make it work for us, and not the other way around."

@DemocracyNow_Headlines_rss I wonder how the “opportunity economy” relates to the #4dayworkweek or #ubi .

> “Employee churn is the most expensive productivity loss there is,” Dehlin said. “The fact we don’t have to retrain employees is a big deal.”

A four-day workweek is more than reasonable, it’s moderate.
