Explore Alternative Work Schedules

dread when you work six days a week and you have one day off you are going to burn out inevitably almost exponentially faster than if you have two days off a week now I'm gonna challenge you to go be out think a little bit outside the box a friend of mine owns a utility company and he has set his schedule for his guys that they only work four days a week but they work for 12-hour shifts and every single member of that company absolutely loves it because then they have three days off every single week three days they decompress Thursday night the guys love the challenge they love knowing that they're going to get up Monday and they're gonna bust their ass Monday Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday and be done with it because it does not matter how many days a week you work because if you're still on you're on that entire time you're never off when you're on Monday even if you only work eight hours use no decompression time there's no downtime you might as well work 12 if you're on for ten hours it does not matter you're still on when you go home you don't get off until you are completely free from the job and that's the only way you're going to be compressed so if you guys think Al's out there are working your guy six days a week you can say goodbye to it they're not gonna last if you want quality employees you've got to start looking at the changes in their mentalities in their wants and their needs if you want to get rid of these people that are there great for one or two years but then you've got to turn around you've got overhead change you've got your hiring these guys that are burning themselves out thinking that they can do it but then what happens they get married they have kids they have a mortgage they start to realize that life is more than working structure
