i work in academia. i don't even do less than 40, but 4x9 and 1x4. in summer i do 4x10. before i started the job, i never would have imagined how much better life is having that extra day off, or even a half day on fridays. i love it so much, i probably wouldn't even start looking for another job if they cut my pay by $5K. my previous position it was the standard 5x8, except we were *required* to take an unpaid hour for lunch, so it was really 5x9 (9am - 6pm, 5 days/week). i say fuck literally everything about that. they wouldn't ever even consider making the lunch hour optional, because they want you shackled to the desk an hour later every day.
