I’ve often wondered why the “typical business hours” are Monday through Friday 8am-5pm. When I worked these hours in a sales role, I often had mixed results (especially before 10am). When I had my schedule altered to have two days a week working from 11-8, and one weekend day, my results were much more productive.<\/p>\n
From a lifestyle standpoint, sitting on the Northway from 7-8am and 5-6pm was no way I wanted to go through life. Being able to have my schedule adjusted this way made the job much more enjoyable.<\/p>\n
I’d like companies to consider this bold move as an option:<\/p>\n
Monday through Thursday 930-330 in the office, and 2 hours per day work from home<\/p>\n
Friday work from home any 8 hours of your choosing<\/p>\n
By doing this, your staff will be able to avoid traffic on either end of their commute, yet still be productive and in person for 4 days a week during the bulk of the day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
