    Yeah but 4x10 misses the entire point of it. Also, I work production + bueraucracy and holy crap would I not want to do 4x10, I’m done after 6hrs max.

      I agree and it’s why I highlighted that 4 8s would be better.

      I’m just saying IMO if you’re working 40 hours a week no matter what I would always pick 4 10s over 5 8s.

      3 day weekends feel short to me now, think ill die of depression if I went back to 2 day weekends.
