I get up at 4am on days I have to go to the office. Driving an hour to work at 4:30 sucks but it's better than driving 2 hours to work at 6:30.
On Fridays I either have the day off or have to work 4 hours, alternating each week.
I get up at 4am on the working Friday and finish at 8 exactly like this guy suggests because it feels like I have every week being a 3 day weekend.
It is shit cramming a full working week into Mon-Thursday though. My employer implemented the 4 day work week if we wanted. You still have the work the hours though, so it's quite shit.
I know quite a few people just went back to working 5 days to shorten each day.
That's not the same thing at all. You're already getting up at 4am normally on Friday, and you apparently only work 4 and a half days a week. This meme assumes you work 9-5 5 days a week, and advocates that you spend more time outside those hours working.
Term for it is compressed hours, and it is stupid
