    A lot of companies offer that or a variation of it but I really hope I don't have to break down to you why that isn't "more time off."

      Depends on your routine and commute. 1 less day of work could mean 2 less hours of travelling. And 1 extra day to sleep in, meaning 1 less that you gotta wake up early for. Obvious downside being that those 4 days are basically just wake up, go to work, come home, have dinner, go to bed. Though depending on routines, it might be like that for people already,so it's 1 less day of that.

          I work 12 hour days but I work less days of the week. I’ll take that schedule over your typical 8 hr days, 5 days a week.

            If this was an option for me, I would gladly take it as well. Maybe not 12's, but I would gladly take 4 10's over 5 8's.

              Some places also give people leeway. They don't care when you work, as long as you get all work done and/or get 40 hours a week.

              So if you feel like working 10 hours one day, go ahead. If absolutely wanting, pull 12 hours one day like a Thursday before a long weekend or vacation , then you can work half day the next or something so you could get out early and head out for your vacation before the traffic hits.

                This is the type of job I need; I'm useless at work on Friday. Of course with recent events this may not be as funny, but I'm all about letting the inmates (kids) run the asylum on Fridays.

                  I dont know if its common or uncommon, but I miss Vern Lundquist doing NCAAF games on CBS. Not that I have anything against Nessler. In fact I quite enjoy him. I just miss Vern is all.

                      He definitely didn't die in 2007

                        The Lost World: Jurassic Park is very good. And I acknowledge everything that is wrong/bad about it as well; I just think people tend not to acknowledge what is good about it enough.

                        Given how they blended CGI with animatronics so well, I'd also go as far to say it's still visually the most impressive Jurassic franchise film out there.

                          The two best animated movies of all time aren’t even made by Disney. They are FernGully and The Thief and the Cobbler.
