Can we get a three day weekend ffs?
(lemmy.one)
20% reduction in work days, 50% increase in leisure days
They should just commit to 4 day work-weeks.
In the US Father's Day and Juneteenth are the same weekend and some places are doing a 3 day weekend
Juneteenth is a federal holiday, but private employers don't have to observe it. Mine sure doesn't. I have never heard of any employer observing Mother's or Father's day with a paid holiday.
If we're making rules, I'd take voting day over mother's day any time.
Fuck yeah
I‘ve made that (30h work week) possible for myself by living frugally and not having children, though I hope eventually this desire can reach the unions all the rest too. 4 day week at full pay would be so nice!

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.
