Re:Four-day work week – Lessons learned on Friday June 19, 2015 @09:45AM (#9744648)

Good question. I am a software developer in Germany and on every interview now and then I ask for the 4-day-week. It was denied 11 times so far. Most employers consider this to be a joke and cannot believe I am serious.

After half a year in a company you have a right to get into part time work, but there are some requirements that have to be met and every employer I talked to in my career so far was very... unhappy when asked about it.

Hey there,some background information: I have a business information degree in Germany, working as a software developer for two years now.99% of the time I only have to write simple scripts. I read every book about development, techniques, languages, you name it. I know I have a lot of knowledge, but there is nothing I can work on.People always say "well, just commit to open source projects"...
