Make the working week 4 days and the weekend 3 days.

What the petition asks
I feel we work far too hard as it is and two days is a pitiful reward for five days graft. We should reward ourselves with a three day weekend. After all, life is for living, not working. I propose we add an extra hour in the day for work on the days we work, but take Friday as part of the weekend.
