tbh with me it wouldn't work, if there isn't any routine at all i would get depressed, but less work days sounds really nice

It's pretty awesome, to be honest.
Healthy.... yeah... sure

You just won't have disposable income or clothing or food - or shelter, but those things are HIGHLY overrated. You never hear cavemen complain about those things.

My mental health was the best it's ever been during lockdown (I was with my family, so I wasn't losing out on any socializing). Can't believe I'm hoping for another global pandemic for time off work.

Yeah well - when you're on your death bed you'll be sorry you didn't have more time to spend at work helping someone else to make money so they can have all the time off they want.

I had to work and my downstairs neighbour threw parties every single day except on weekends until he was evicted. No thanks.

I think some people know how to work the system in their favor. When I was living in an apartment, I noticed I was the only one in my building that got up in the morning and went to work. The people around me were home all day and night, but maybe they all worked from home? If so they sure made a lot of trips to 7-11 during the day and also spent a lot of time hanging around smoking outside.

If that's true, then I must be the healthiest person in the world!! (My doctor): Oh lord no, why even the slightest breeze could....(Me): THE HEALTHIEST PERSON IN THE WORLD!!! BWAH HA HA HA HA as I tear off my clothes, run out the door and head for the nearest sofa and game console.

I love it. This cuddly little fellow here is pancreatic cancer. But why worry when you can play video games and eat cheetos? The world of slothfulness has so much comfort to offer.

They call it "working for the government"
