2. Work only four days a week.
While you still work a minimum of 40 hours a week, you only go to work 4 times instead of 5. If you commute 1 hour to work, you save an hour each week commuting.

5. The Long Weekends:
Under the 28 hour day system, your weekend is still two days long, but those two days now total 56 hours, 8 more than the previous 48. The weekend is fully 1/3 of the week.

Like everything else on this planet the time we are asleep/awake greatly depends on the position of the sun. It would be ridiculous to ignore that and pursue trivial matters such as longer weekends, or more time for recreation. As a matter of fact, a better system, in my opinion, would be to sleep at sunset and wake up at dawn... xD
