I am self employed and actually do that whenever possible (which is a rare occurrence these days,but I managed to do it for six month once). It sounds counterintuitive to do so, but it's actually a fairly nice concept. You work for two days, which is not that long and offers you enough chance to really work "all in". Then you sleep in in Wednesday and do most of the weekly chores - all that shit you would normally do half of your Saturday. And then you do another two days, already approaching a full weekend - which is far less likely to be interrupted by these lousy chores you normally need to do. And if some things remain,you are not having four but two work days in your bones - which makes them easier and usually faster to put behind you.
Can I ask what you do? I need to get a job and I'm dreading it after being out of the work force for a bit. Id much rather be my own boss.
I am a CEO/founder of a small healthcare consulting company.
