i am familiar with 4/10, tried to get my former employer to let me work that way when i lived in cali, had a 1.5 hour drive each way to work, would've saved me money and time, but he wouldn't do it ~~ steph

Steph- and one step beyond 9/80 is 4/10 - ya work 4 ten-hour days and have one day off every week. think 9/80 is a better compromise of length-of-day vs. number of days off. -Ben -----Original Message----- From: Stephenie Hamilton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, November 14, 2001 10:56 AM To: CF-Community Subject: RE: Sure, everyone quiet down ... oooh cool! i get it now <smacks self on forehead> ~~ steph -----Original Message----- From: Braver, Ben [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, November 14, 2001 12:12 PM To: CF-Community Subject: RE: Sure, everyone quiet down ... Steph- traditional salaried work-week is called 5/40 - 5 days, 40 hours worked. (This does not apply to self-employed folks who work 24/7 !) 9/80 schedule says 9 days, 80 hours worked. Mon. - Thurs. = 9 hours a day. every other Fri. = 8 hours. every other Fri. = scheduled day off. Has a few wrinkles - my supervisor and I are the only 2 applications geeks, so we can't have the same days off. So we may have to "punt" around vacations and stuff. And communications are a little wierd. But heck if somebody really needs to talk to me I'm not gonna get p.o.'d if they page or phone... But by and large it's becoming real neat having a 3-day weekend every other week. (And when there's a Monday holiday and you have Friday off, it's a 4-day weekend!) -Ben -----Original Message----- From: Stephenie Hamilton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, November 14, 2001 8:58 AM To: CF-Community Subject: RE: Sure, everyone quiet down ... ben, what is this 9/80 day off stuff?? steph -----Original Message----- From: Braver, Ben [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, November 14, 2001 11:46 AM To: CF-Community Subject: RE: Sure, everyone quiet down ... Eri*K*a, I'm at work, trying (sorta) to make this a productive three-day work week. We had Monday off for Veteran's Day. And Friday will be my scheduled 9/80 day off. So much work, so few days <sigh>. But gotta take a few minutes to say "hi" to all the nice folks on the list :-) "HI!" -Ben Looking forward to Thanksgiving where President Todd spares the national turkey, so it's a better tomorrow for the turkey but not for us 'cause we don't get to eat it <whine> -----Original Message----- From: Erika L.
