Hey, thanks for your question. I have two answers to this: 1. Of course you can express your preferences. It is also tried to take into account individual wishes. Project requirements need to be taken into account, too, of course. 2. the last few months have shown (at least for me) that the classic 4-day week is no longer so common with customers. For example, I am currently usually only at the customer's for three days and sometimes also do home office weeks.
