http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/ChristineFroehlich/7125 I think our society is made up of  people who work too long, too hard, and for what, to drop dead of a coronary because they spent their whole life working their butts off? To never have that precious time to be with your kids,family, or enjoy your hobbies? Your friends? Believe me, I have done my time working long hours, and every weekend, for years. I am so done with that. Life is just too short. To those of you who hate working five days a week, here's a brief message of inspiration...you are all capable of making your own hours, and your own reality, if you believe that you can. Once I decided to create my own working reality, and work 3-4 days a week instead of 5, I was able to. I just had to believe that I was worthy of it and convince my employer that giving me the hours and flexibility I wanted, would benefit business. Guess what? It did, and our business increased about 20% over the prior year. 5 Days a week, or more? ....KAZAAM! , #!,  @!,POW! , *! ... To the moon, Alice!

To the moon, Alice! en-us lol   Many companies are doing the 4 day work week now and finding it actually works better for them.  Their employees are happier and they do more work in the 10 hour 4 days than in the 8 hour 5 day weeks.    I have a couple guys that work for me doing only 4 days at 8 hours and these guys do a great job, wouldn't trade them for the world.   You must have a smart employer.  I am enjoying a very early retirement although I do have to travel a bit to keep an eye on things.   I trust my employees to the fullest and they trust me, so I don't have to do much.   Life is good....  I believe what goes around comes around. (smile)   I'm glad you are enjoying your life more these days. http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/ChristineFroehlich/7125/#c_70959 http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/ChristineFroehlich/7125/#c_70959 lol   Many companies are doing the 4 day work week now and finding it actually works better for them.  Their employees are happier and they do more work in the 10 hour 4 days than in the 8 hour 5 day weeks.    I have a couple guys that work for me doing only 4 days at 8 hours and these guys do a great job, wouldn't trade them for the world.   You must have a smart employer.  I am enjoying a very early retirement although I do have to travel a bit to keep an eye on things.   I trust my employees to the fullest and they trust me, so I don't have to do much.   Life is good....  I believe what goes around comes around.
