For immediate release.
CERN is proud to announce it will resume LHC operations shortly after a major system sensitivity upgrade and is poised to launch a new set of tests on behalf of their corporate donors.
This year marks the first time scientists will seek proof of the (not-yet-)theorized “anti-second”.
According to the head of the program, Dr. Ismadeup:
“When the efforts of our labors are successful, the rules of physics will fundamentally change! This discovery will allow corporate taskmasters and mindful spouses to extract even more productivity from those under their sway.”
Athletic organizations, alcohol distributors, and adult media companies are eagerly awaiting the commercialization of any resulting technological enhancements derived from the research.
Are many companies offering 4 day weeks? I’d guess yes.
Can people afford to live off a 4 day week salary? I’d guess no in general.
I believe a lot of people can accept 80% salary for 4 days per week.
My intuition is also the opposite of yours on affordability :), at least in tech...

As an example, benefits have fairness tests between highest and lowest paid employees. Fail those tests and the benefits are taxed, possibly as normal income. Companies find tricks to get people out of the group of normal employees under the IRS rules to beat these tests.
Uh, probably not. Unless you mean part-time work. Or 10 hour days.
