Twenty years ago at my first Software job a guy started who worked four days a week. He simply didn’t work Wednesdays. He got 4/5ths of a pay check. Full benefits.

He explained he and his wife didn’t want more money - they had a 10 year old corolla but rode everywhere, a 900 sq. Ft. Apartment they loved and didn’t want for more stuff.

So he just worked 4 days a week. This was a revelation to 22 year old me, and I took his lesson to heart.

If your boss doesn’t agree, fire them and find one that does.
