The problem is not working too many hours. The problem is working too many days.

I do not like the 8hr/day 40-hr 5:2 work week. I prefer a 12hr/day 48-hr 4:4 work week. Even though I am technically working more hours, I have have 50% of my days off and can enjoy the "time to live sustainably, to care for each other, and simply to enjoy life."

What my schedule does not do, however, is allow slashes in full-time payroll to be redirected into executive bonuses and shareholder dividends.
