I got a 4 ten hour day schedule with 3 days off and I MUCH prefer it over 5 eight hour days. Having a whole extra day off easily makes up for working ten hours IMO.

I used to have a rolling 4 ten week, so Monday off one week then Tuesday the following etc. The best part was the week you have Friday the next you have Monday so it's a 4 day weekend every month. But the job was so fucking boring and they'd still come around every day 9 hours into the shift asking if you wanted to do 2 hours overtime... So 4 days was basically work, go home, shower, eat, sleep repeat. I personally need some wind down time each day but I can definitely see how some people would like this setup

I had the option for 4x10 and turned that down. I'm barely useful after 8 hours. I can't imagine 2 extra hours a day.
