Many jobs SHOULD be public sector jobs. Like water utilities, garbage collection, electrical utilities, teaching, college teacher.

These public sector jobs should be 4 days a week, with a 5th day of retraining/training. So people keep gaining more skills encase technology changes the workforce, and make peoples' lives more meaningful.

    The fifth day should just be free, with training being offered during portions of the year for everyone or as a system similar to, but separate from, vacation days. Imagine a couple weeks in the year where everyone gets together for training or a fairly generous pool of training days to take from and an approved list of courses.
