"Utah this summer will become what experts say is the first state to institute a mandatory four-day work week for most state employees, joining local governments across the nation that are altering schedules to save money, energy and resources."

I think this would be nice to only work 4 days a week even if it is a longer shift. I would never be able to do that . I work in the medical field and it would be impossible to only work 4 days. It is around the clock work.

I would think it would be a smart thing to do, but would love to find out if it worked out good.

Oh yes I read about it this morning and thought to myself. Wow, Do I wish I was a state employee in UTAH. I don’t mind the longer hours, if I can get a full day of errands done. It be great.

Hello Bd200789, In the U.K. is the longest working hours her and I don't think if that happens here people will starve, the cost of living is very high and we pay far too much tax. So good luck to the people of "Utah" Tamarafireheart.
