I agree with you that getting paid the same hourly rate, working less and still maintaining job stability is a win.

It just didn't initially sit right with me when I heard Look at me I'm winning! I used to do five days of work and get paid for five, now I do five days of work and get paid for four.

They were doing four days of work and getting paid for five, now they do four and get paid to do four :)

I also went from 8 hour day to 6 hour day with a cut in pay and no loss in productivity and I feel it was a win. I've enough money either way and a lot more time.
