For what it’s worth, I actually prefer 4x10’s instead of the usual 5x8’s that office jobs fall into. The work day tends to slog near the end, but I tend to struggle primarily with executive dysfunction. If I’m already at work, that issue is largely solved, due to the fact that I’m already working. It means I struggle to get ready for work one fewer day per week.
Also, every weekend is a three day weekend. It’s nice because two days is not enough to get everything done that the household needs and have time to relax. On a two day weekend, I spend the entire weekend doing chores or errands. But with a three day weekend, I typically have a full day to do fuck all. Also, having a weekday off to run errands is nice. Everything is closed on Sunday, so consistently having a day where everything is reliably open is nice. Doctors appointment? No need to burn PTO at work; just schedule it for your weekday off.
I work from home three days a week ( in summer it will be two with Fridays off), so I can manage my executive dysfunction fairly well–unless the boss gets a boner for deadlines. That happens typically once a year.
