Should We Have A Four Day Work Week In America?

it's better for health, it's even better for finances. So we're asking, would you want to do a four day work week, but that does mean you would have to work ten hours a day four days. I'm not mad at that. I would do my ten hours a day and get off Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Baby. You we all love what we do, so you're always working. When you're not here working, you're where your wife's work. We're always working. So this this generation wants and excused to

be at home period. I think it'll make you more productive. Like, for example, I don't do Monday as well, Like I really don't even get in my groove until Tuesday. Even here at the Breakfast Club, there's certain things we don't do on Monday, or try not to do, like interviews after the show, right, or nor do we like doing interviews on Friday after the show because we'll be ready

to get out of here. Yesterday's Sunday, I met my daughter's cheerleading competition all weekend, drove back three and a half hours from Rhode Island. Although I love coming in here because the energy in this studio is fantastic this year. I mean, I haven't had to light my stage once, but I would still rather not have to talk and tell tomorrow. But what change this year that you have to bring and says it's not the hours, just the studio, the energy. So see, I see, I would say the same.

I just flew back in Sunday, and yes, I need I need a kickstart, you know, I mean I need I need Tuesday. That's what I'm saying. On Tuesday. Monday is kind of tough. That's why even with interviews on Monday, you're kind of down a little bit. Now. To Jason's point, there's there's I love everything that I do, and there's multiple, you know, businesses that I have my hand in. So I guess when I say I would need a four

day work week, it's just from radio. I don't want to get up at six o'clock in the morning to do radio on a Monday morning. But we've been doing it for all these years, and that's why you guys are in the Radio Hall of Fame. That's right. And that's how I know I need a four day work week because I've been doing it so long. That's how I know he's he's a Monday of Friday. Gotta go, bro, you see. But this is the thing. Even when I

miss a day, I miss it. Though I'm not gonna sit here line like when we off, I'll be like, damn, I still get at the same time, my boy. It depends what's going on. When I enjoy Still, I enjoyed my time off. I'm gonna tell y'all that right now. I enjoyed my time of the breakfast club. It's endorsing this ridiculousness. I've notified my entire staff. I will relocate the Hollywood Unlocked to Dominican Republican or somewhere. Y'all can't take a day off door because y'all are a blog.

Even do we call y'all a blog? No, they try, but no, we're a media company, media company. Seven, you're a media company. That's twenty fourth seven media company. Sort of, let's go hello, who's this morning? Hey, Michelle more talk to us before day work with all right, I've done before day work. We I did it when I used to work for See Mobile, but it was a little different. We did it for ten hours a day. But I loved it. I loved having three days off. Damn, I'm

telling you, what days did you have off? Friday, Saturday, Sunday. That's perfect. That's perfect. So Thursday, when your day is over, you could just bounce if you need to. Yeah, And it really wasn't that late. It was like through the turns, so you can still go out, you can still do things. You kind of swept in a little bit. Now I have kids, so it's a little different, but I'm not gonna I'd rather have the Monday. The only reason I rather have the Monday is because Friday you get off work.

So you got all day Friday to do whatever you want to do, all day Saturday and all day Sunday. I rather that than have the Friday. Take the Friday off. Thursday you get out of work. When you get out of work, then you could dip on Thursday night. Now, you got the full day Friday, full day Saturday, come back Sunday, flying back from places on a Sunday night. They have to work on Monday morning. They ain't never hit bro. You know what I'm saying. Like I've been

needing that Monday to recover sometimes. And I guess it also depends on what your career is. If you have to go into something physically, then I can understand it. Probably being that's true. Don't want to do Hello, who's this? It's try what's going on? Good morning? Listen to y'all every day many show appreciate we're talking about the four day work with. What's your opinion? Oh, I'm all about it.

We do that right now where I'm at at y'all here in the South calcilac where you at in South Carolina, carl Wins Little Beach, and where you work at? Did you got a four day work week? We do underground utility work, okay, but you work one day you work a lot then yeah, one day to Thursday, ten hours a day. See, I'm not mad at that. I don't like the ten hour a day because at least Friday you get to do it. Ain't bad go by before you know it real, it's only extra two hours. Maybe

that is work. Yeah, maybe that is worth it to have an extra day off. I know a lot of medical people do it sometimes they do like the shifts, and then they take a certain amount of days off. And I think you get two breaks and our lunch too, so it kind of goes Yeah, but I still don't like this conversation. You don't get an out of lunche when you're working out of five No, I think you're thirty minutes. What the hell is going on? We don't get lunch of pears. I mean because we're here for

breakfast dog yeah, Jesus Christ, lunch. It's the middle of the day. I am thank you. But eight hundred five A five one oh five, when we're talking to four day work week, do you prefer that? Let's talk about it. It's a breakfast club. Good morning, it's topic time call eight hundred five A five one oh five. Want to join it to the discussion with the breakfast club morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Charlemagne, the guy we are the breakfast club. Jason Lee is here. Now if you're just

joining us, we're talking about a four day work week. Now, they're saying this four day work week, it's supposed to work for people very very well. They're saying it helps with people's productivity, their health finance is approved, and there's a lot of companies doing it. So if you want to work a four day work week, do you think it's better, do you think it's worth? Would you do it? I'm all in for the four day work all about it. I'm not gonna lie. Give me that Friday offer, that

Monday off. I really want that Monday. Monday is, Monday is the tough day. Tuesday. My mouth don't even get working till Tuesday. Maybe I'm not falling nothing. I'm grown out right. Trade baby. Juliet, Hey, good morning, good morning, Good morning God. What are you calling from, mama? Um? Well, I'm currently um long out in New York, but I currently reside in Georgia. I got Georgia. Okay, we're talking about a four day work with. What's your thoughts, Mama?

I think the morning workmen is go great because it gives people an extra day. And he has a personal business like court, that's true, or any type of business that happens only like nine to five when regular people, you know, business people work are nine to five, you won't have to say golf. You won't lose your money. I think it sounds good. Yeah, that makes sense, and

I never understood that anyway. A lot of the places that people have to go to clothes on the weekends, but that's the only time that they can actually go is the weekend because they work. Yes, right, yes, I never understood that. And that's why a lot of people don't do handle certain business because they have to work and know it to live their life, but they can't make it to the business that's only still nine, nine to five. What day would you want? Friday or Monday?

All right? I love you, but you may get like hard now what you think Friday, Monday or the middle of the week you might need a nap for to me now, I ain't doing it a little week no, do you realize if I agree? But I'm gonna take Monday because I don't really like getting up on Monday. Me too, thank you, mama. What you do realize if you take Monday off tuesdays now you're Monday. I'm fine with that. It'll it'll feel different though I can't explain it. I just know that if I don't got to get

But I wish, like Charlotmne thing they do Friday because plenty you know what I mean, you could be cover on that day for I'm telling you, man, think about when you've been out all weekend, like say on Sunday, especially when the summertime hitting his day party season and you've been drinking, you need that day to recover. On the Monday, you want to go to Jim Do you go to day party? No, No,

don't know it. You don't know it. But even if it isn't a day party, you might just be drinking somewhere. You might just be out and enjoying a barbecue, a cookout. You need that Monday to get all that out your system. Seven to seven. Your whole life is to just at work. I couldn't do it. Chantel, good morning, Hi, go morning. In this stance out for rich Live Virginia. I definitely hey y'all, I love y'all so much. I definitely agree

with the four day work week. I work in dialysis and it's always been working a twelve hours steps and which you do have a good healthy work life balance. But recently I definitely um step down to three days a week in which I'm off on Mondays. I'm actually home right now. So it is definitely a good way of living. And like you said, um um Sloman when you just said that if you went out of something on the weekend, you have that Monday to recover. It really helped you out a lot three day work week.

How like, how much do you work for a three day work week? So I'll put in like a twelve hours step, and I do have another. I have a business, Like I've run my own business, so I definitely try to balance out, you know, working still having to work, but also pushed some our business. Yeah, can you do a three day work week? That's and that's part time because it's three twelve so thirty six hours. Yeah. Nah.

There's countries that have already adopted this, by the way, Denmark, Norway, Germany, the Netherlands, Iceland can body all the places Hollywood, A lot will not be Really what's the moll of this story? The more of the story is, man, I think, um, it'll increase productivity. It'll make people feel, you know, like they're getting more bang for their buck. I really feel that way. The more of the story is, find you a career that you're in love with, so that way

it doesn't feel like working. Just work your ass off. You still need a bank. You need that time off sometimes just for your mental and emotional health. Sometime, man, I need that time away, or just have sex four times a day? If you good, that's that's ridiculous. That's ridiculous. Would you imagine, would you rather work five days a week before or sex four days or four times a day? Well happening, U would not rather have one?
