Atlanta, that's a very good point. Others with children are very likely to see it your way. We do have one gal with two little ones at home. The rest of us are older and have grown children. Most have indicated they would prefer a 4-day work week, if it comes to that. I would prefer to stretch it out to 5 shorter days, personally.
We did have an employee meeting on Friday, and it was indicated that the decision about how to further reduce expenses was yet to be made, but it might include a 4-day work week.
UPDATE: One of the foreign (transplant) suppliers has now offered a chance for their employees to reduce their pay by 10% in two different ways. They can decide whether to work 4 days or 4 and 1/2 days, as long as they only work 36 hours. I can't see working 12-hour days, since I'd be exhausted...so I'd probably go with the 4 1/2 days.
