Would you rather have two days off in a row, or two days off separated in the week?
 

Do you prefer to have days off together or separated in a week? I have both frequently, and I think I like having them off throughout the week more. It breaks the week up, however, it's harder to plan things than when you have two days off in a row.

2 days off in a row definitely, infact I think we should have a 3 day weekend for a proper break

I use to work 11days on and 3days off. It worked really well for me. I would get a 7 day paycheck with massive OT on it and then a 4 day mediocre check.

Two in a row. Single days off don't feel like a "day off" during stressful work periods, you spend the first half winding down from the day before and the second half psyching up for the next day.

One of the only positives of working retail was being able to work long shifts and get the full weeks hours in over 4 (sometimes even 3) days. Then they mandated that double shifts were "only when understaffed/to cover sickness", but more staff were needed on Saturdays than other days, so for full-time staff members it was mostly single days off (e.g. Sunday and Wednesday). EVERYONE was miserable with it :think:. Having weekends off is so much better :hee:

Friday one week Monday the next.

I definitely prefer 2 days off in a row as it gives you more time to get stuff done and relax a bit. I use to hate having single days off, especially if it was a Saturday as it meant I would be working the Sunday or vice versa but I much preferred to work the Saturday and have Sunday off.

Two days off in a row. I hated it when my days off would be Wednesday and Sunday for the week as it just felt like I really had no time to myself and the Wednesday would largely end up being wasted anyway.

I work most Saturdays so have Thursday and Sunday as days off typically. I wouldn't want to spend my life doing it as I do miss my Saturdays but I love my day off in the week - feels quite liberating having a day free to yourself when everyone else is at work so no pressure to do major social weekend stuff. I often go to the cinema in the afternoon or go have a leisurely pub lunch or if there's any things that needs doing like shopping, odd jobs etc it feels much easier to do in the week than a weekend or evening. Its nice never being far from a day off as well like Mondays are always a struggle but it's easier when you're gonna be off again in a couple of days

Ahh I do love a good Tuesday lunch time cinema trip to be fair :flutter:. Almost-empty screenings, whole row of seats to yourself...

Two days off in a row to make a work week shorter.

Two days in a row.

My shift pattern goes as follows;

• Off Friday (long week)
• Off Wednesday & Thursday
• Off Tuesday, Saturday & Sunday (short week)


This week is my short week :hee:

Two days off in a row by far!

Don't let LT hear you say that.

Together

2 days to sit around per week? :laugh:

most young people dont know what to do with themselves on a SUnday and should only be given one day off a month

Not my fault LT doesn't know how to relax properly :hee:

the more the better, It's like 1 week is never enough time to relax properly, 2 weeks is needed.

relaxation is a myth and another way of disguising sloth, humans are designed to be active.

awww, you're missing out on so much :'(

sleeping, sitting on a sofa watching tv or shopping?

i dont think so

I hate shopping. I went for a hike this weekend in the Glen of Aherlow :nono: I also got an Indian head massage, went for a swim, had a jacuzzi, glorious

I watched Ant and Dec in Ireland so i know that you went to the local pub and sang songs about a hill :nono:

(and note that people in that pub admitted to adding letters to their names :omgno:)

Don’t you have family who care about you?

What has that got to do with owt?

I regularly have 2 days off separately throughout the week.

It depends. Sometimes that breaks the week up nicely. Other times, especially when you have lots to do at home, a couple of days in a row is preferable.
