I've never done this, but would like to.

For me, off time is key to coming up with creative solutions. It is a common occurrence that I face a problem at work and the solution is elusive. Then I go home and while doing something else I come up with the idea that leads to a good solution.

Anyway, I would gladly trade 20% salary/benefits for more off time. Because of the cycle of creativity I mentioned above, I do not believe the company would lose 20% of my productivity.
