A five-day work week seems to be devolving to 4.

But I do not ever remember working less than 7 days a week in my 22 years as an entrepreneur.

A client called my cellphone to report a fraudulent attack on their shopping cart while I was enjoying a Sunday matinee on Broadway. I left the show to manage it. Like the TV ad says, (and I am ad libbing here,) fraud doesn’t not care about my inconvenience, and neither did the client.

That client expected instantaneous attention to their dilemma and they were right to contact someone, but all I could do was report it to the right party.

I knew there would be long hours, disruptive days, weekends spent at the PC instead of doing what I would have much preferred to have been doing at the same time.

But I started my own business with the promise to give the client service I would expect from my vendors. If they are not open 24×7, I find another one. If the client service person on the call is not fully capable, I run up the chain of command. For me or for my client.

This 4-day week trend? Well, for those of us who work from home, I fail to see the benefit of fewer days. Seems like it means more time per day. and in the end, it’s all the same, or worse.

Luckily, there are no LinkedIn emergencies to pull me out of a show.

But I did commit to write blog posts for you every business day, and as I write this, it’s Saturday morning, and 632 am, here I am.

I am clear of mind and not distracted now to write my thoughts. Hopefully when you read this, available at 800 am Eastern Time, you are too.

Just thinking aloud…in my head..,.in a quiet room while everyone else is sleeping.

Ah entrepreneurship!
