I would be more than happy to work 1 day per week and live with 20% of my current salary.

I believe a lot of people can accept 80% salary for 4 days per week.

My previous company allowed people to work 4 days for 80% pay. Out of 60 people, 3 people took advantage of that.
Probably because opportunity for advancement becomes nil when you're not "all in."
I'm curious. Could you by any chance know some reason behind this? Is the salary not sufficient for the zone, or people do enjoy working, or they just simply think they would be bored as they take it?
Which company? Whenever I offered to work 60% of the time for 50% of the money I was flat out rejected.
