OK this actually relates to my life, but thoughts? If you had a choice between working a job that is just ehhh - that some days is AWFUL, but usually is tolerable and you would work 4 days a week, or work 5 days a week at a job that you like, but you would make less in those 5 days than 4 at the other job.....
Did that make sense?

Re: Random Poll of the Day - Work
I wouldn't mind working Mon-Fri if I liked my job.
But if I had to stay here I would put in longer hours Mon-Thurs and get a 3-day weekend. That would be nice!!

Re: Random Poll of the Day - Work
I'M a related topic.
I'm other - I would rather work odd hours. Like write all evening into the night. I could do that probably six days a week and be happy because I can still go out if I want to and sleep late. Sleeping late is really key for me.
eta - ew, I read my thread. I was such a sap that week. to me.

I'd loooove to have 3-day weekends so I'm going with that. Time off to just chill is the best.

How dare you be sappy the week before you got married?

I don't know. I pride myself on being sort of outwardly emotion-less. Last November and December really killed that.

Re: Random Poll of the Day - Work
I actually had a situation like this for 4 years. After I had my son I told my job I couldn't work on Friday's b/c I didn't have anyone to watch him on Friday's since school was way too expensive. Wasn't true he was in school 5 days a week but I figured I better negotiate for what I want before I come back since someone else in the office also had Friday's off. The job was ehh but I made the same money for working 5 days but I worked 4. I loved the three day weekends so I guess I was able to deal for four years in that job. I would say that if you can deal it's great for planning vacations and it helps with holidays that fall on Monday then you get 4 day weekends. I would take the job that offered more money less days than have a 5 day a week job that I liked for less. You can always take the day off to look for a 5 day job for more money and enjoy the three day weekends while you can.
