This is the #1 reason I have not entertained the 4-day week idea myself. While I'm confident my productivity per day worked would be at least as good and my post-tax finances would be fine, I don't trust my colleagues or customers to respect the boundary.

If you don’t trust your colleagues to respect your boundaries do you still trust them as colleagues?

In some cases, no. In most cases, it is more accurate to say that I don't anticipate other people in the org being considerate, due to a lot of the interactions we have being one-off rather than an ongoing relationship.

Well, if I may be blunt, environments like that typically aren’t good to work in. Sounds like too little trust for great work to happen. Any thoughts about going elsewhere?
