Antiwork

Would you rather work longer shifts but have a day off every two weeks or work shorter days and work more days?

My employer is offering compressed work schedules. This is an option to work longer days (9 hours shifts) and get 1-day off every two weeks. In contract I currently work 8 hours shifts and work Mon-Fri every day. I am debating a three day weekend every two weeks, but the longer days seems…rough. It will be an earlier morning and also later nights which will cut back on after work errands and activities. I'd go from working 8;30-5pm, to 8-5:30pm. The daily grind of that seems to outweigh getting a day off every two weeks. I work from home most days so the commute will not change to/from work. I am curious what other people think.
