From your question, I assume you're rather young and work means everything to you. :laugh: It may be true that some people seem to spend their time "foolishly" but these folks do it whether they have a day off or an evening "to kill". Most people do know how to spend their time "wisely" though and for these, each day off is not only a personal reward and chance to recreate but they also come back with higher motivation and so they work more efficiently. Spending a day "wisely" can also mean just to chill out, to hang around with friends, to read a book, to dance, ... Whatever it may be that helps this particular person to regain his/her energies and spirits. Don't judge too hard there. Maybe you don't understand it but for that person, it may be just perfect and the next day in the office or wherever the workplace may be will show an increased productivity. Time off isn't just wasted, it's much needed. Here in Germany, we have many more days off than people in the US do and still, we're not less productive. Otherwise, we wouldn't export so much. It took the unions long to fight for these days. Personally, I even remember campaigns stating "on Saturdays, daddy belongs to me!" and I really wouldn't want to give back any of those privileges. Work hard when you're at work and do whatever is best for you when you're off, enjoy your days off and let others enjoy theirs, it won't harm the industry at all... :-D
