[poll] Which day do you have off in the week?

[Lordosis]

I have seen several docs cut back in our group on total days in the office but their visit numbers do not decrease much. It seems they just have more packed days when they are working. There are pros and cons to this.

Monday though Friday. Never weekends except for call, which lately isn't much.

Have considered off Wednesday & on Saturday, to grab those weekenders. But I just can't bring myself to it.

I work 3 days a week in office, Thursday is always Admin, my day off is variable, depending on the call schedule. My partners (who do have the admin time) work 4 days a week with variable day off (most of time it is a Monday, Wednesday or Friday).

I work four days plus call. Our sister group works five days a week plus call. And they make 25% more than we do.

Well that is almost exactly how it ought to work. If anything sister group is actually getting a slightly worse deal. If they work 25% more, they actually should make a bit more than 25% more.

I suspect that people who value the money more than the time will gravitate towards that group and those who value the time more will gravitate towards yours.

I get weekends, every Friday and every other Thursday off. Eyeball amortization estimate over 20 years, probably cost me a $1.5-2 million in missed pay which would have gone into investments. But I've always been a little bit lazy.

I work Monday-Wednesday, and I won’t even consider a job move that doesn’t allow me to keep the same schedule.

I take random Fridays off throughout the year when I have trouble filling my schedule

[ACN]

I have senior partners who take Fridays off in the summer.

[legobikes]

Bump, just cause we have more than 25 regular posters

[PainShrink]

Wednesdays off break the week up nicely. I find that I get bored by Sunday afternoon so a 3 day weekend* wouldn’t be as productive or enjoyable for me. ( *covid time in NY state- so it may be different in the summer or during normal times)

[RDB]

Wednesday off, Friday half day. Very happy with the set up.

I have to do tuesdays for family reasons, but would prefer mid week anyway (t,w or th). It helps break up the monotomy of things, I'm always a day or two away from a day off, and you can accomplish more real life stuff (lawyers/drs appt, banking, etc) in the middle of the week than on M or F since everyone else is trying to take those days off.

[G]

Didn't vote. A more applicable poll would be: which months do you prefer taking off?

[Lordosis]

I leave a few hours early on Friday. It was Thursday but I am not the lowest man on the totem pole anymore!
