Will you

1) accept a 5.5 days job if you were previously working 5 days?
2) consider a 5.5 days job if the environment is ok?
3) only consider a 5 days job only ?

Do share with me your views and reasons. :)

I'm used to 5 working day type. I will want to reserve at least my wkend for both my kids and rest/relax.

Unless it is really well paid job...$ face...

been working for > 10 years and always 5 days...

unless you work in shifts or service industry..even the government agencies are 5 days workday though some would have to work longer 5 days work week.

and i must say that 2 days of rest is just sufficient to spend time with hubby, kids and family. Just look back what what we did and you will realise that we are busier during the weekends... :)

I'm currently quite happy with working 5-days only. Will only choose to work 5.5 if the pay is really a big increase and the environment is really really good. Otherwise I feel not worth it.

Already I feel that 2-days for weekend is not enough to fully R&R. Feel like quite a rush to run errands, spend times with the gals hubby, and generally squeezing in all the "to-do" stuffs.

I prefer 5 becoz now have 2 kids w/o maid or helper on wkd is really not easy. But... i do need to work 1 Sat every 3 week.
 
i have worked 5.5 days before as ex teacher (b4 the govt implementation of 5 day wk) and I totally hated it. cos in the normal 5 days, worked as long as 12 hours and above. weekend in the only time for family.

Now I work from home and enjoy it a lot... but it will not last... sadly :(
