You’re not going to believe this, but if you had a SIX-DAY WEEKEND, your life would be pretty sweet.
A new study out of England found that working just one day a week is best for your mental health.
If you work any more than that, you’re not getting any extra mental health benefits. But if you work LESS than that . . . in other words, if you’re unemployed . . . you ARE missing out on the mental health benefits you get from a job, like feeling productive.
The researchers say, quote, “The traditional model, in which everyone works around 40 hours a week, was never based on how much work was good for people.” Well you don’t say!
But even if one day of work is the best for us . . . it’s not what we really want.
A survey asked people how many days a week they’d want to work if money wasn’t an issue and they liked their job . . . and only 2% said one day a week. That’s the same amount of people who said six days or seven days.
28% said three days a week . . . 21% said four days . . . 11% said five days . . . and 14% said NO DAYS. The rest of people weren’t sure.
