On the other hand, most middle managers are unable to actually understand the fact that most employees are motivated more by non-financial stuff. You spend, if you’re lucky, A FUCKING THIRD of every workday at work. The whole ‘package’ must be at least acceptable to the employee or she’ll go. It’s really that simple.
This is why I like 12s. I only work three days this week, but still get 36 hours. And even when a shift is “only” 8 hours, there’s very little that can be done with the remaining time in the day when getting home. Work days are work days, regardless of hours worked.

Having more days off than on is priceless.
