That would pretty much be me. I don't think I'm the waving-the-tail-around happily type in that situation.

Not several, around one billion years younger. It's a valuable opportunity to claim that science has it wrong and as bible says the universe is 12 thousand years old with a flat earth at the center.

..going crazy. It's the moment when you sip your morning in the coffee, wondering whether yesterday was real, or just a dream. For every day of the week.
All those people bragging about needing no sleep; if you are deprived of it, you're no longer functional.
Find a touchstone.

Sober-ish...
The Beer Prayer - Our lager, which art in barrels, hallowed be thy drink. Thy will be drunk, I will be drunk, at home as it is in the tavern. Give us this day our foamy head, and forgive us our spillage as we forgive those who spill against us. And lead us not to incarceration, but deliver us from hangovers. For thine is the beer, the bitter and the lager, for ever and ever. Barmen.

Be careful. No one knew I drank until I showed up sober one day.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

I don't drink; enough meds to prevent me from becoming a drunk.
Still, doesn't seem to be much difference. (Confused and happy)

Thanks for the tip; not a title I would ever pick, since it sounds a bit new-agey self-help stuff. Since chakra's aren't mentioned in the intro, I'll give it a try

Until recently, I was working a 4-day week, each day being 10 hours long to make up the standard 40-hour week. I completed all my projects on time and no loss of productivity ensued. Actually, since I invariably made dentist, doctors, etc. appointments always on my days off there was less unscheduled time off.
I am now working a 34-hour week which counts a full-time or part-time depending upon who you ask.
However, the days are 7, 7, 7, 7 and 6 hours (on Friday) and I was thinking of seeing if I can change this to four 8.5-hour days - unlikely to happen as it is the government and they have pretty fixed rules.
This makes me wonder how many organisations could switch to four day weeks without any loss of productivity, and perhaps an increase?
Even those who work from home may benefit from an extra day they are not required to answer the telephone.
How would you feel about such a change to your schedule?
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

I remember when 4 day weeks (7.5/8 hour days) were touted by governments (Euro & Aus) as being good for the workers, although their real intent was to boost employment.
Many companies that tried it found the employees got just as much work done in the 4 days as they used to perform in 5 days, few different reasons:
- employees had a day to get their other stuff done, so not distracted (or taking sickies)
- employees worried the other guy that fills in may replace them worked that little bit harder.
... (commonly considered more likely previously they stretched the same [target] amount of work to 5 days.)
- blah blah whole bunch more "expert" analysis
downsides
- for "customer service" staff no choice, employers needed people to fill those days
- the boost to employment ended up to be bugger all, so govt stopped talking about it
.... ('yes it's good for the voters, but not for us so who gives a sh*t')
yes it's proven to be a damn good idea ...
but mostly because [higher skilled positions] the boss wants you on hand all the time, to ask stupid questions, or be there for 'emergencies' (customers asking hard questions) they generally don't like to offer it.
